La semana pasada comencé una serie de entradas sobre ganchillo y después de la nomenclatura (aquí) toca repasar los símbolos.
Last week I started a series of posts about crochet and after nomenclature (here) it is time to review the symbols.
Si la nomenclatura resulta confusa con los símbolos ocurre todo lo contrario: si sabemos como "funciona" podemos entender cualquiera de ellos.
If nomenclature is confusing, symbols are just the opposite: if we know how they "work” we will be able understand any of them.
Lo primero es reconocer los símbolos de cada punto:
The first thing is to recognize the symbols of every stitch:
As you see, they are symbols formed by a single element. The complex symbols, with more than an element, indicate how to combine the first ones:
In this second group of symbols the important thing is the instruction about how to handle the stitches. I have written these last two tables with double crochet stitches but I could have used any other stitch. For example, two half double crochet stitches into same stitch:
Equally, we can find the same operations for a different number of stitches. For example, three double crochet stitches together:
Finally, we have the symbols which refer to other actions, as beginning or finishing the craft, the magic ring, the part of the pattern to repeat, etc:
You may download from here the complete lists with the crochet symbols I have compiled. Actually there are many symbols but I have chosen the most important ones. I believe they are enough so that you could interpret others. I hope it has been useful.
