Before starting this tutorial, I want to share a story with all of you
I have a friend named Lise who lives in Montreal and that for more than 50 years
I have not known anything about her and thanks to YouTube and also her eagerness to find me, we have
found each other.
So, I love you so much Lise.
Je t'aime Lise!
Hello, this chair which fabric was very worn out instead of throwing it away
I'm going to try to fix it.
I have painted the chair and now I'm going to cover it with these ropes using these two crochet hooks
which are the largest I had at home, if you have them longer, better,
but those are the ones I'm going to use.
First, I'm going to tie a knot here, in the left part, another knot, a normal knot,
to secure it, I take it down, now I go below, tensing well, after
I make a loop, the rope that is always loose goes inward I make the loop,
I take it from behind and pick it up with the crochet hook, I tense, I go down again, I make the
loop, the rope that is loose goes inward, I make the loop, I put it below, towards here,
forward, I take another crochet hook and I leave it still, I'm going down again, I make another loop,
but now I'm going to put it through, I pick my crochet hook over the rope, I pick up the loop, I pull it
and put it through the first one, I tighten the rope, I go below, I make the loop, always
the rope that is loose goes always inside, I put now the loop below, I take it with the crochet,
I pull it and pick it up, again, underneath, I make another loop, I put it through, I pick it up
With the crochet hook, I pull it and keep the crochet still and so on until
we finish this part, I will show you how to finish it
I'm going to weave the last row where I'm going to leave the hooks free.
For that, I leave enough rope to go up and back to this hook over here
it is where I'm going to end, I put it underneath, I go up, I make the loop, I'm going to go to this
side, ... below first, I make the loop, I put it below
and now I pull up the rope and I leave the hook free, I tighten well, this part already
would be finished, now I go down and I'll release the other hook, ah,
this ... it has to come over, I make here the loop, I put it underneath and now
with the crochet hook, I'm going to place myself on the other side so I can be able to
pull the rope through the hook.
and I get the rope out there and I'm finished
Now I have to pass the rope like this, starting here, I go there like that
with the crochet hooks on one side and on the other side and I end up here.
The back part I start here, I'm going to start at the bottom, sorry, and I'm going to go up because if
it's going to take a lot of work to do this part, that's why we're going to start at the bottom
and let's go up.
After weaving the vertical ropes, I've been weaving the horizontal ones with white.
I have made my own chart, here below.
I counted the strings first, they were 26 [blue] that's why they are 26 squares.
The drawing is symmetrical and the red is when the white rope goes over and the white squares
when the rope goes below.
If you do it diagonally, the drawing will look very good
As it is my first chart, then in the part I have made in white, there are many
white spaces, you should not leave so many spaces because then the strings look too
long
Whenever there is a space above, you must leave another space below [different colour], you can not
have a rope that always stays above but do not leave so many spaces like that
so long because then you see these ropes are too long but as it is my first
chart, well it seems pretty good to me.
