Today we have new topic from the section art crafts.Hear proverbs and frame the topic:
The bird is red with a feather, and the knitter with her skill
Where the knitter's thought turned, there the hook
The knitter knits on a buttonhole, but she's glad it happens
There are enough ideas for every knitter.
The knitter had no trouble, but bought a skein of yarnAnd you try to formulate the purpose of our lesson)

4. Learning new material.
Knitters are in demand in factories, in knitwear workshops, private workshops of fashion designers. Sometimes knitters are self-employed entrepreneurs who work from home.
The main duty knitters at the factory - to complete the product in accordance with the terms of reference. The foreman refills the knitting machine, starts the work and monitors the quality of the yarn. Sometimes in the process of work it is necessary to adjust the density of the fabric, change the needles, introduce additional threads.
Knitting at home is 100% fantasy. The knitter can independently design the style of the product, select threads and accessories. And he can fulfill orders according to a ready-made pattern.
Important qualities
Good finger coordination, attentiveness, the ability to concentrate on details, readiness for monotonous work, accuracy and responsibility are important in the work of a knitter.

Knitting rules
First rule.
The first loop is always removed on the right knitting needle without knitting.
Second rule .
The front loop is knitted behind the back wall.
Third rule.
The last loop of the row is knitted with the purl.
A set of loops.
Knitting of any product starts with a set of loops. Here we are now and try to dial the loops with you. First, we need to know how long the thread needs to be taken. For example, for a sample of 10 cm, approximately you need to take 20 cm of threads, this means twice the width of the product.
Show clearly the set of loops.
(If the set of loops is not clear show the video)
Show on slides and show on knitting needles how to type loops correctly .
When setting the loops, we use both knitting needles so that when knitting the first row, the loops do not tighten, but freely fit the knitting needles. We collect 12 loops. This is about 6-7 cm, we take a free thread about 15 cm.
See how the girls did the job.

Nowadays, young people have many opportunities in the professional field. However, taking advantage of these opportunities requires knowledge and skills in a specific professional environment. In order to become a sought-after professional in your field, you need to choose the most attractive field of activity for a particular person and periodically improve your knowledge in this area, as well as apply the theoretical knowledge gained in practice.
Recently, many modern specialties have appeared on the market, which have replaced unclaimed professions. However, there are areas of activity that are relevant at any time and require young and energetic specialists. For example, companies that manufacture knitwear, as before, offer a wide range of products: knitted underwear, linen, gloves, hosiery, as well as outerwear and much more. Of course, these companies use modern equipment so that the products meet modern requirements. The bulk of workers in knitwear companies are knitters.
Depending on the range of products and on the equipment installed at a particular knitting enterprise, the duties of knitters are determined. And although knitters at different knitwear enterprises can carry out various operations, all the same, both there and there there are general provisions of the knitting profession.
For example, knitters perform the following functions: thread the equipment with new yarn, replace bobbins, as well as spools, needles, eliminate thread breaks and put loose loops on the needle, control knitting density and thread tension, remove finished products, monitor equipment and the quality of finished products ... If we compare knitters at a knitting enterprise and knitters who knit with knitting needles and a crochet hook, then, of course, the former have the least creative activity, because such a knitter is focused on the production process, and not on finding modern models in magazines or creative design of a product, etc. etc.
Typically, in a textile enterprise, one knitter simultaneously works on several knitting machines, and the number of machines serviced is determined depending on the equipment and the type of products produced. For production different types products, various equipment is used, which the knitter prepares for work, and, if necessary, adjusts the working mechanisms.
During the working day, the knitter is in a certain area of the shop, where the equipment necessary for work is located close to each other. In the process, the knitter uses measuring templates to check the dimensions of the manufactured products, a screwdriver and pliers to replace the needle, scissors, brushes and brushes, therefore, in addition to the knowledge and skills of working with the equipment, she also has information on how to operate the above tools.
In order for a knitter to cope with her duties at a knitting enterprise, it is necessary to find out whether the applicant has such qualities of character as figurative memory, physical endurance and resistance to work of the same type, developed spatial thinking, accuracy in performing certain actions and concentration on the work process. Knitting education can be obtained at a higher or secondary specialized educational institution.
1. What is the name of your profession (position)?
I am doing knitting to order. I am the Knitter.
2. What is your job and what are your responsibilities?
I work from home on sofa J. I knit for people. Maybe someone will find it strange or incomprehensible why I am doing this, that you won’t earn much money by knitting.
But in every business, talent is needed, in my work there is also a creative approach, knowledge of the basics of fashion modeling, always follow the fashion, navigate, whether this or that model is suitable for a specific person or not. I meet with a person, I am interested in what he wants: a sweater, a scarf or a hat, a dress, and so on. Next, we choose a more specific model, a specific pattern; measurements are taken from a person and an order is placed. Why would people contact me? Firstly, things are all unique, one-of-a-kind, according to the principle, exactly the same, only with mother-of-pearl buttons. Secondly, not every person has a standard figure with standard parameters. Someone is wider in the shoulders, someone is very tall and thin, they cannot find anything for themselves. Therefore, the best option is to communicate with people like me.
3. What education is required to get your position?
Education is not necessary in my job. So far, no one has asked me for a diploma about education (although higher education I have, but in a different area). My mother taught me to knit as a child. She showed the basics, and then it was a matter of technology, practice and the desire to learn new things. Keep track of what other techniques in my work have appeared or revived from ancient times (after all, knitting is an ancient thing).
4. Describe your day at work.
I am very lucky that I do not have to go to the office, sit there for a fixed working day from call to call. That is, you do not have to get up by the clock for this, go to work in any weather. I have a free schedule, the only condition is that the item must be ready by the deadline agreed with the customer. It's hard at first. You need to force yourself to work, because you already have to knit not according to your mood, but out of necessity. A knitter who already has experience in knitting (even if not to order, but tied herself and loved ones) knows approximately how much time it will take her to knit a particular thing. From here, she plans how much work should be done in one day. And if, during the day, the required amount of work has not been completed, you have to knit late in the evening or even at night. But you can knit while sitting on a soft sofa (which I do), in front of the TV. And if you wish, you can still study at the same time foreign language listening to a tape recorder.
Despite the fact that I knit or crochet, I have to devote time in the morning to look through my mailbox, as my clients find me via the Internet, write a number of questions in the mail, based on which they already decide whether they want to meet with me to begin with work or not.
5. How comfortable are your working conditions (all day on the street, or in the office with a cup of coffee)?
You can only dream of my comfort. If desired, if it's cool, I can make myself comfortable on the sofa, covering my legs with a blanket (by the way, tied with my own hands and therefore warm, beautiful).
Whenever I want, I can drink tea / coffee, eat lunch or just have a snack. I do not need to report to my superiors, since I am my own mistress. And how comfortable it is for me to work, it is also completely and completely curled by myself.
6. What do you like most in your business?
What I like best is that my work brings me pleasure. Because I really love to knit. And at first it was just my hobby, which later turned into my work, which brings joy to people when they really like the thing, fit and fit perfectly. At the same time, it becomes very pleasant on the soul when you see joy and a little happiness on their face, how their eyes begin to shine at the same time. You stop immediately thinking about the sleepless nights that you had to spend finishing work in order to fit into the deadline.
7. What do you dislike most about your business?
Sometimes I do not have enough communication with people. After all, working from home, I am not in a team, of course, I communicate with clients, but this does not happen every day and during short period time.
8. If it's not a secret, what is your salary level (is it enough to write whether you are satisfied with it or not)?
I think that every person can be satisfied with his level of salary for a certain period of time, and then he wants to grow and so that his income grows. So it is with me. Unfortunately, the people are not yet ready to pay the kind of money that suits me, but which is worth the effort, self made which I am doing.
9. Describe your team, what kind of people work with you?
Alas, I have no team, I work for myself and for myself.
The only thing, sometimes I turn to assistants - other knitters, if I have collective orders and a large amount of work that I cannot cope with alone by the agreed deadline. These knitters have been working with me for some time and have been tested.
10. What human qualities, in your opinion, are the most important in your business?
For me, patience, the ability to find an approach to each client is important, because not every person understands that this or that thing will not suit him.
11. Work gives me additional opportunities (everything that work gives you except money, from self-expression and communication with interesting people to the opportunity to visit different countries).
I don't see any additional features yet. Is that to take other directions in needlework. For example, master a knitting machine or other techniques, such as weaving, embroidery. All this can then be combined in one product even.
12. Do you have the opportunity to rate your work on a five-point scale, what grade would you give?
Estimate, probably at 4. Ideally, I would like to have a factory with a large number of hand-knitted and machine knitters.
It is possible to redo something. For example, if a person is a janitor (although janitors, most likely, will not write here, but just the first profession that came to mind), then how and what should he write about the team. That is, maybe the question can somehow be altered.
