Children's beret knitted

Not so long ago, berets entered children's fashion. How cute girls look in such hats. They immediately become a little more mature. A very beautiful look is obtained in addition with a snood or a small scarf. And a girl always wants to be a little like her mother, so the idea of ​​a knitted beret will definitely appeal to her. Then two beautiful models of berets for girls are presented, which the master can make from children's yarn and a suitable pair of knitting needles. There is also some information about which threads are more suitable for such products and how it is more convenient to select knitting needles for work.

Yarn and knitting needles

For a children's beret, just like for any other hat, you will need your own yarn. This may be a fiber from a series of children's yarns. It is recommended to use medium-thick yarn for a child. Since the thread is very thick, it can not only make the product warmer, but also significantly weigh it down.

Wearing this product will not be so comfortable and therefore, for the purpose of insulation, it is better to use special linings.And instead of regular children's yarn with less wool content, use fiber with a higher wool content. But any yarn must satisfy such requirements. This hypoallergenic fiber composition and softness future product.

Knitting needles should be chosen depending on the model of the original product. Many hats are made using stocking needles. But it’s a completely different matter; such a working field may simply not be enough for a row, so it’s convenient circular knitting needles. Below are two lovely models of berets for girls that can be made by a master and someone who has recently mastered this craft.

How to knit a baby beret with knitting needles?

Making a beret with knitting needles is not so difficult. First, the master selects the material and selects the number of knitting needles for it. Then he carefully does measurements for a child.

For the beret, you will need to make some additions and subtractions of centimeters according to the measurements. Next, a small sample will help you make the correct set of loops. But for sample there will also be rules. It is important to knit the sample with the same knitting needles, which will be further used for work. It is also worth using the main pattern for the product.

For some models, it is necessary to perform several samples at once, since different places may have different patterns, which in any case will have their own knitting density. Since it is precisely this indicator that will need to be determined using the sample. Below are two cute models of hats for girls and a description of them with attached diagrams.

Beret for a girl with a voluminous flower

Berets look very nice, decorated with voluminous flowers. These flowers can be made by knitting or crocheting. Girls will love this alternative to regular bows.And these flowers are suitable for any knitting pattern. Read more about the interesting beret model, which performed across later in the article.

To work you will need:

• yarn for a beret from the children's series of medium thickness;
• knitting needles according to the thickness of the prepared yarn;
• hook for making a lush flower.

Measurements

You only need two measurements for the hat. The first measure is baby's head circumference. The second measure is more difficult - this is product depth. For this, the tape should be applied from the edge of the lobe of one ear to the other. Place the ribbon across the crown. Next, the resulting number should be divided by 2 and an increase of 7 cm should be made for the beret. For the first measurement, it is better to decrease by 2 cm. This way the cap will be tighter and after washing it will not become a different size.

Sample

Make a sample according to the garter stitch pattern. It should look like a small square. Then count how many loops in this sample are 10 cm, and how many rows are 10 cm. Be sure to stretch the fabric a little before measuring to make the measurements clearer. After calculating the knitting density, determine the required set of loops.

Rubber

A very interesting model of this beret. It's actually not that difficult to do. First you will need to link garter stitch rib. The width of the elastic is approximately 7 cm. But the length should be equal to the head circumference.

The basis

The foundation itself is done stockinette stitch, and garter stitch inserted every 6 rows over 2 rows. In order to determine the length of the base, you will need to subtract the width of the elastic from the depth measurement for the product, this is 7 cm. Next, make a set of loops according to the new measurement obtained and start the fabric from the front surface. Knit fabric with a slight offset. On the right edge, here you just need to add loops. But for the other side, on the contrary, use shortened rows.

Important! To complete a shortened row, you simply need not to tie the loops to the end of the row, but simply turn the fabric between the loops.

Knit according to the prepared pattern for a length equal to the circumference of the head. You can immediately knit with an elastic band. At the same time, making sure that the garter stitch inserts match the stripes on the elastic.

Flower

It is advisable to make the flower using a hook according to the given diagram. You can make it a little fluffier, just knit more rows to complete it. But those who do not know how to crochet can also make a flower using ordinary knitting needles. Below is a diagram of a flower using knitting needles.

Assembly

To assemble, you will need to sew on a flower and tighten the loops along one edge of the beret (this is the top of the head). The side seam can be made using a hook or needle and the same skein of yarn.

Now the product is ready and you can safely try it on and knit an additional snood for it. For snood, you can also use garter stitch and its combination with stockinette stitch.

Beret with unusual weave knitting needles

The model will captivate with its pattern and a cheerful pompom on the top of the head. Girls love these things. The face of a little girl looks especially good in such a beret.

For work use:

• delicate pink yarn (for children);
• knitting needles of the thickness for children's yarn;
• fur pompom

Measurements

Measure two sizes to complete the model. This is the girl's head circumference and depth. For the first, you will need to immediately subtract 2 cm. For the second, add about 6 cm.

Sample

The pattern is very mysterious, and therefore, before making a hat, you should definitely try to knit it in the form of a small cloth. Also, the canvas will further serve as a starting point for counting both the density and number of loops for the initial set.

Rubber

A very thin and almost invisible elastic band, but it is still present in the model. This is normal elastic band 1*1. But a very elegant thread makes it so refined that it looks very luxurious next to such a massive mesh of weaves. For the elastic you only need to knit 4 rows. Moreover, it will still need to be tucked and hemmed.

The basis

For the base you will need to make small additions to get a little volume, which will make the beret even prettier. You should add a quarter of the loops from the set of loops required for the head circumference. Then knit half the depth measurement without adding, and without changing the number of loops at all. Then do a decrease for the top of the head. Usually for a beret these are very sharp decreases, but here it’s easy to do 8 stitches in each row of decreases. After reaching the desired length according to the depth measurement, you will need to collect all the loops into one and tighten it tightly.

Assembly

To assemble, you only need to tuck a thin elastic band and sew it into the inside. To prevent it from losing its elasticity, it is better to do this using a special elastic thread. But the thread must be matched to the tone of the yarn, so that when the elastic band is stretched, nothing sticks out from under the beret. The last element in this beret will be fur pompom - sew it on the top of the head.

So the cute new thing is ready. You can try it on a child.
