  1. Step 1 Prepara la tua caterinetta.
    You can also make one by threading tacks around the hole in a spool of thread.
  2. Step 2 Inserisci del filo...
    Insert some woolen thread (or other yarn) of about 20 cm in length inside the caterinette from the upper part and make sure that 8 - 10 cm comes out from underneath.
  3. Step 3 Tieni la caterinetta con la mano sinistra e il filo che esce dalla parte superiore con la destra.
  4. Step 4 Dai un nome ad ogni gancio (mentalmente), ad esempio nord, sud, est e ovest.
    There is no need for the hooks to respect the real directions but you must be careful not to confuse north with east halfway through the work.
  5. Step 5 Avvolgi il filo in modo circolare in senso orario intorno al gancio nord.
  6. Step 6 Avvolgi il filo intorno al gancio ovest in modo che sia teso.
    The taut thread must pass through the inside of the hooks, near the central hole.
  7. Step 7 Continua ad avvolgere nello stesso modo in senso antiorario anche i ganci sud e est.
  8. Step 8 Ripeti gli stessi passaggi fino a che non hai due giri di filo su ogni gancio.

  1. Step 1 Iniziando dal gancio...
    Starting from the north hook, take the lowest (first) loop with the needle and pull it over the hook, then drop it inside, leaving only the second loop on the hook.
  2. Step 2 Ripeti i passaggi su ogni gancio, lavorando in senso antiorario (cioè n, o, s, e).
    Tighten the stitches by gently pulling the thread from the bottom of the caterpillar.
  3. Step 3 Avvolgi il filo come hai fatto prima ma solo una volta.
    Again, you should have 2 turns on each hook.
  4. Step 4 Ripeti l’intera procedura che consiste nel far passare il giro più basso sopra al gancio.
  5. Step 5 Continua ad avvolgere e lasciar cadere i giri fino a che non vedi la maglia lavorata che esce dalla parte inferiore.
    A four-sided elastic tube should form, tapering at the tip.
  6. Step 6 Lavora il filo fino a che il tubo non è della lunghezza desiderata.
  7. 7
    Close the points.
  8. Step 8 Prendi il giro rimanente del gancio nord e portalo sopra al gancio ovest.
  9. Step 9 Prendi il giro più basso del gancio ovest, tiralo verso l’alto e lascialo cadere come hai fatto prima.
  10. Step 10 Ripeti i passaggi per i ganci ovest e sud.
  11. Step 11 Quando è rimasto...
    When there is only one loop left on the east hook, cut the extra thread, pass it through the loop, and remove it from the hook.
  12. Step 12 Finito!

Advice

  • The great thing about knitting is that it's so much easier than knitting!
  • Tricotin works well with threads of many colors (like a gradient rainbow).
  • You can buy little caterpillars with up to 20 pegs to make very large tubes.But buy it only if you want to work for a long time just to make a 30 cm tube.

Warnings

  • Make sure to wrap the wire on the inside of the hooks, not on the outside.It's very important!
