WHAT IS DOMINO KNITTING?

IN 1993, I WAS ATTENDING a handcraft lair m Gcm1any and nouced a huge crowd at

one stand. 1 could just barely see a bearded man demonstratmg a diiTerent way ro knit. That man was Horst Schulz. Later, 1 travelled to Berlin and took a course wnh him. It was on "the new knitung" as he called it, and was lively and enthralling. The Danish knittmg guild, Gavstrik. sponsored a contest to

select a name for the technique The winner was "Dornmo Knitting." a fine and amusing name which has stuck.

In domino knitung, pieces are kniued together whtle the work progresses, just as one "p•eces" the tiles m dominoes. for more than a century, people have knitLed th1s way. They knitted shawls with domino patterns on the Faroe Islands and pieced coverlets m the same manner in Canada and England. In the United States, I found a copy of a pamphlet from 1946 with the sweetest pckct , knilled in domino squares hy Virginia Woods Bellamy. In 1952, she published a book on the technique, called Number Knitt1n,~.

From the first momcm l saw the domino knitting techniques demonstrated , I was imnguecl by the many possibilities of this kniuing method. I have worked \>.rith domino

kniuing in a simple, Nordic way and feel that it is very important that the garments l make will be comfortable to wear and will look nice with simple accessories.

Domino kniuing is not as stressful on the kniuer's arms and shoulders as other kinds of kniuing. Domino is kniued on short, preferably wooden, needles or circular needles, and you knit with only a few stiLches at

a time. Even if you are kmuing a large blanket, you only tum the short needles anclthe little section you are working on when you shift from right to vvrong side.

There is no getting away from the fact that domino knitting is slower but who says that we have to knit quickly? We knit for the sake of enjoyment

today, don't we? Who wants something fun to end quickly? Not l!

With this book, I hope to share my enthusiasm with everyone who would like to partake of it. lt is so much fun to knit small pieces with short needles and to see the work growing up and out. Domino knitLings poss1hilities are endless. But wait! Once you're hooked, you're caught. Domino knitung is addictive.

TOOLS FOR DOMINO KNITTING

Bt' hmd w yoursd(-tmly the bt•sl eqwpmt'nt rs good enough!

Needles

A parr of dommo needles rs absolutely indispensable. The needles are on ly about 8" (20 em) lo ng, with a knob on one end. !>O that the needle ends won't get :;tuck in your clothes or your knnung You can buy them or you can usc double- po inted needles with 'l bead llgh tl y fas tened onto one end of calh \1y needles arc rosewood, a wonderful, nextble wood which the stitches g!Jdc across. You will also need a nrcu lar needle and a short needle (use a wooden needle about 4" [ l 0 em] long or a table needle) for crossrng the cables

Why domino need le::.? With long

needles, you use more arm mowmcnt when turnmg the work Wn h short needles, you reduce th1s movement to a mmimum.

Other Things You Will Nerd

Sutch markers. blunt tapestr)' needles. some safet) pins. measunng tape. a (<lhle needle. cotton tackmg thread, a crochet hook, sc1ssors, and a pen arc all useful items to have on hand. lf >·ou are followmg a chan or d1agram for the kmumg, you tan make a photocopy, LUI out the chan ;md put 11 with the other t hmgs. Keep 11

neat and handy in a plasttc sleeve so 11 IS

easy to carr) around On page 8-+. you can rl·ad about yarn

and gauge.

Squares with a Decreasing Number

of Stitches

When you arc kniHing smaller and smaller squares as the work progresses, you can either pick up fewer stitches in the notch, or pick up as many sts as there arc edge s1s. Adjust the stitch l~ount on the first row, so that there is l s1 in the center and an equal number sts on each side of center st.

FfliA~GI~~.;~ r··· ·· ...... :. You can change a size. on a domino ·design knitted with squares simply by making the squares smaller or

.larger. This \\ill change both the heighth and width.

LEFTOVER YARN

Domino knitling is an ideal way to usc up leftover yams. for example, usc them to 'knit a sweater with striped squares. TIP: Choose one color and usc it. as one of the. colors on every square. That makes a calming background so that you can use as many other ,colors as )'OU want in the squares without the sweater looking too garish.

Pressing, Or?

You have now finished making a garment but there is a little care which needs to he dum· before you can wear it. Begin hy \'erifying exactly what kind of matcri<tl you have, than decide on the proper finishing method. Yarn companies must always be sure that the yarn has what it promises. therefore the handling they recommend should always he carefully considered. Always read the yarn label or pattern instructions. Often the label says handwash and no ironing. l lowever, I dare tO say that most qualities of wool yarn (e:\ccpt superwash) l'an be ironed . I don't mean that the work

should be pressed flat , but , holding a steam iron a litt le bit above the piece. you can smooth the work with your hands and spread it out into the correct shape. Be sure that you don't burn your hands with the steam! I don't ha\'e much e.,pcriencc with superwash and synthetic fibers , so you should try these yourself. Always usc the gentlest way first. Mal.;e sure it hasn't caused <~ny harm before you dare t<tke the ne:-..t step. I would always keep the steam iron totally away from these materials. Instead, dampen tlw pieces, stretch them out into cmTct·t form and block them to measurements.
