Knitted sweaters: a simple model for a child

Sweaters, knitted with needles, surprise many people with their beauty and wealth! Only now beginners are afraid to take up difficult things, honing their skills on scarves and socks. But if you adhere to a number of rules, then you can link a pullover to yourself or a child in a couple of evenings.

Basic rules for knitting

1. Choose a sweater model for your size.
2. Read the instructions for its manufacture.
3. Purchase the material as described. If you take another yarn or knitting needle, the appearance may change.
4. Compare the indicated density of mating with its own.
5. Check the quality of the yarn by stretching and ironing it. Compare the dimensions again.
6. Follow the instructions.
7. Do not take long breaks in the process of knitting for a single day. It is better to tie the series daily than to leave the unfinished thing for weeks.

Another way to link a simple sweater with knitting needles is to take your favorite model, which will be instead of a pattern. With this thing in the store, consult a consultant to find the yarn. Next, find a similar pattern in the magazines. For example, you have a sweater with braids, then select several patterns of small, medium and large bundles. Link the samples and select the drawing you like. Then apply the work to the thing-pattern. If you just learn to work, then work with the finished schemes.

How to tie a sweater to a child with knitting needles, if there is no ready-made scheme

Most often you can find ready-made models without descriptions and instructions. In this case, proceed as follows:

1. Look for similar patterns.
2. Choose the yarn and knitting needles. The fact is that incorrectly matched knitting needles and yarns can lead to loose knitting or a heavy weave.
3. Make sketches in their size: the length of the product, arms, shoulders, girth of the hips, chest, neck. Or the old thing is torn into details that will replace the patterns.
4. Knitting begins with a back from below - with elastic bands. Likewise knits before. Then knit the sleeves. Combine the details and, in the last turn, unfasten the collar.

Sweaters, knitted by the needles, sometimes look out of place in an exaggerated manner, but on the figure they take shape. This may be due to improper selection of yarn, cheap material or ignoring the preparatory stage for determining the quality of the thread and the density of knitting. Therefore, carefully choose the yarn, ask for help from a store consultant and do not try to save on the amount of material.

Example of a child's sweater

Knitted by needles, even the most simple Products are warmer and more beautiful than the factory half-beasts. For a sweater for a child of 10 years, 500 g of merino yarn (50 g / 102 m) and knitting needles No. 5 and 6 will be needed. The sweater is knitted using two simple patterns: 1) an elastic band 2x2; 2) the surface of the surface. To make the product original, you can knit with strips of yarn of different colors or then embroider a jacquard pattern.

First, knit the back of the gum, typing on the spokes number 6 96 loops. After 2 centimeters, go to the main facial pattern. At a height of 34 cm, you begin to close the hinges for the armhole on both sides - first four, then two (2 times) and one loop (3 times). Next, four rows continue knitting, then close the loop to get 72 n.

At a height of 51.5 cm on both sides again close first 7, then 8 loops. At the same time, count down the central loops and close them. Shoulders are tied yet to a height of 1.5 centimeters. Before doing the same way, only the neck of the 26 loops close at a height of 48 cm. The shoulders are knit separately, closing the loops from the side of the cutout in each even row - first three, then two and three times one loop. At a height of 51.5 cm, close the shoulders along the outer edge: first 7, then 8 loops. And at the total height of the product (53 cm) you finish knitting.

For sleeves, type 46 loops and knit 2 cm with elastic band, and then 34 cm with the front face, adding loops on both sides in each sixth row 1 loop each 13 times to have 72 pins on the needle. Then start with each side close in each row first 4, then 2 (two times), 1 (ten times), 2 (three times) and 3 loops. At the height of 48 cm knitting ends. Gather all the details. Type on the spokes number 5 hinge neck and tie a 2 cm elastic band.

As you can see, knitted sweaters can be not complicated, but comfortable and beautiful. Try to connect such a thing, and you will be surprised how quickly a "nice pullover" or "cardigan" is born from ordinary tangles of thread.
