Summer openwork beach tunic crochet: diagram and description

An absolutely necessary subject of the wardrobe for the craftsmen who love the summer sun is the beach tunic-grid crochet. The scheme and description of knitting the simplest models may not be required, since the order of their manufacture is extremely simple. For successful implementation of more complex zadumok without schemes can not do, but the good news is that such instructions are very easy to find.

What yarn to choose

Despite the fact that natural yarn is definitely better suited for knitting summer products, artificial yarns can also be used when working with mesh cloths. Large cells will not allow the product to become hot. In addition, many synthetic types of yarns have attractive glitter, silk texture, beautiful twisting of thread, bright coloring and other advantages.

Thus, polyamide, microfibre, cotton or linen will be the optimal choice for the manufacture of such a product, as an open-work beach tunic crocheted. Schemes and descriptions of summer products often contain recommendations on yarn, but often the material chosen differs significantly from those indicated. In this case, you can not rely solely on the scheme, you have to knit a control sample. It should be at least ten centimeters in length and in height, and it must necessarily be done using the selected yarn and pattern. Then the received data will be as accurate as possible.

The measurement of the sample will make it possible to calculate the dimensions of the rapport of the pattern and to compare them with the existing scheme.

Distinctive features of beach tunic

Given the specifics of the product, it must meet the following criteria:

• A cloth bound by a net or an openwork pattern.
• Free style.
• Small overall length.
• Versatility colors or a combination of color with a swimsuit.

The last point is of considerable importance for girls who prefer clothes of bright colors. The beach tunic is crocheted (the diagram and description can be for an openwork or solid pattern), not for hiding a swimsuit, but for its aesthetic demonstration. Therefore, the dissonance created by the discrepancy between these elements makes the use of tunics meaningless.

Principles of making beach tunics

The picture below shows a very simple model that girls with any type of figure can wear and combine with all kinds of swimsuits.

Such a summer beach tunic crochet (schemes and descriptions are not required) is connected from four rectangular parts. Knitting of canvases is carried out with the use of any sirloin. The pattern can consist only of cells or with minor decorative elements. If desired, you can tie the armholes on the details of the gear and the back, as well as the pellets on the sleeves. However, this is not necessary. The mesh fabric makes it possible to get a very soft and plastic cloth, so the folds formed by square sleeves do not spoil the appearance of the product. At the same time, when using more complex patterns, armholes and pellets are necessary.

A simple ornament that you can use.

And the scheme to it.

A fillet is a grid consisting of air loops (VP), columns without a crochet (RLS) or columns with a crochet (CAP). The most popular are two types:

1. Grid with square cells (CLS, 2VP).
2. A fabric with cells of a semicircular form (5ВП, СБН).

And the one and the other kind are very convenient for the formation of canvases of almost any configuration, especially squares. White tunic on the photo is associated with the use of a second type of grid.

Features of cut tunic

In accordance with the standards of the girl for whom the product is intended, a rectangular back piece is knit. When making the canvas, you need to think through the throat. It can take the form of an acute mouse, rectangle or semicircle. In any case, you will get a beautiful beach tunic hooked. The scheme and description of knitting the throat, as a rule, is not needed because of the simplicity of the pattern.

Sleeves for this kind of tunic should not be made long, it is sufficient to have a length to the elbow or a little lower. When assembling the product, the side seams can not be brought to the very edge, but leave small cuts. Very attractive looks lacing, placed on the sides, on the sleeves or on the neck.

Beach tunic crochet: scheme and description of the pattern "pineapple"

The next kind of capes on swimsuits is very specific. Their knitting begins with the line of the neck and comes from the top down. As a rule, the method of circular series is applied. In the photo below one of the models, connected by a rather popular "pineapple" pattern.

This ornament is perfectly suited for the correct expansion of the fabric of the tunic. The first row is equal to the circumference of the throat and the back. The dialed chain of VPs is closed in a ring and knitted in a circular pattern until the first "pineapple" is formed. The resulting fabric is very expanded (forms an almost flat circle) and represents a coquette of the product. If the selected yarn is thin, and the "pineapples" are small, you can extend the knitting until you reach the desired size.

Open-work beach tunic crochet (the diagram and description are above) fits only partially. It is necessary to temporarily stop work on sections of the canvas, which will become sleeves (they will be linked later, or they will not be at all). It is necessary to determine the width of the details of the gear and the backrest and continue to knit only these areas. For convenience, they can also be closed in one circular row and knit down both parts simultaneously.

Having received the product of the necessary length, the work must be stopped, the lower edge tied with an openwork border or left, as is.

Poncho Cape

Closed beach tunic crochet (with a scheme and description) is useful for girls who want to hide the flaws of the figure or simply prefer a more restrained style in clothes.

A loose poncho cape performs the same functions as a tunic. In the photo below, a variant of the product with a semicircular lower edge is proposed. Of course, you can make a cape and a rectangular shape, but it will be quite massive.

The process of knitting such a product is not difficult, but to maintain the correct shape and proportions it is better to make a pattern of details in full size and always check with it. The pattern can be applied almost any, except very dense. For example, the one that is located further.

Scheme to this pattern.

The peculiarity of this model is the vertical holes in the waist region. Pass them through a knitted or some other belt to emphasize the waist.

The formation of holes occurs when the cloth is divided into three parts and their alternate knitting by the height of the holes. Then the parts are reunited with one common row and continue to work.
