For those who don’t know how to knit yet, urgently study the knitting guide and create fashionable clothes and beanie hats for your children.
Especially for readers, very fashionable and chic hats for lovely girls. And also a few words about preparation for creating a product (yarn, knitting needles and other important points).
Selection of yarn and knitting needles
Very important for a child choose hypoallergenic yarn. It should be soft and very warm (especially when it comes to a winter product).
Rows of yarn with this condition are noticeably shortened, You can use baby pekhorka, but she is not very ready to give a lot of warmth. So you'll have to search.
A small cheat sheet will help suggest the color scheme.Professional craftsmen started with this at one time, everything comes with experience, but it’s not a fact that even now they won’t look into it to make something again.
The knitting needles must be comfortable - this is a very important condition. The process should give joy to the manufacturer. The size corresponds to the yarn, and the model corresponds to the knitting technique. For circular - stocking and circular knitting needles. Straight fabric works well with straight knitting needles.
Knitting a sample
The very first thing that is done between the stages of choosing a model and casting loops is a sample. It is he who will tell you how many loops you need to cast on.
Who doesn’t know how to cast on the first stitches on knitting needles:
Then we leave the loops on more than one knitting needle, and knit a sample with the other or start the product.
The pattern is always knitted the same way, let’s go into detail: how to type a sample:
- from 20-30 loops;
- exclusively according to the pattern of the model;
- slightly more than 10 cm high.
He is judged by a good ruler. The number of loops is calculated in 10 cm (horizontally and vertically). These indicators are called knitting density. With its help, the number of loops for the whole canvas is then calculated. For example, the horizontal knitting density is 10 cm = 20 loops. Head circumference is 50 cm.
You only need to make two equations:
1) 50/10=5 (that is, the circle contains 5 repetitions with a certain density);
2) 5*20 (number of repetitions per number of elements in each repetition)=100.
As a result, you will need a set of 50 loops. Similarly, you can calculate height and other indicators.
Step-by-step instructions for knitting a beanie hat for a girl
When the preparatory stages have been completed, you can begin to work. Very interesting models await further. You simply cannot ignore them.
A selection of unique, fashionable new beanie hats for girls with diagrams, descriptions, illustrations of the finished product, and all this is seasoned with tips.
Beanie with English elastic band
A delicate pink hat makes the child even cuter. A simple model is knitted with English elastic. This cap does not require any decreases, which is very convenient for the master. The purple bow adds a special charm to the product. The colors are more subtle than the other, they are very harmonious in this hat.
To work you will need:
- pink yarn and purple yarn;
- stocking needles No. 3.
The entire hat is made of English elastic - it is a light knit. It is very common, voluminous and things always turn out very fun with it. You need to knit in two threads. Knitting must be tight.
The cap starts from the bottom and for this a set of loops is made, which is calculated for the model taking into account the thickness of the thread. But you need to cast on an odd number of loops. Next, connect the knitting into a ring in the first row. Start knitting immediately with the elastic pattern. Knit to the height of the product and add another 5 cm. This is a special cut of the beanie, which distinguishes the hat from other types. Next, the loops are pulled together into one knot and pulled tightly to the center. Hide the thread.
All that remains is to decorate the product. To do this you need to tie a bow. The bow itself is also made with English elastic, only the diameter is smaller. Knit no more than 15 rows with an English elastic band and bind off the loops. Then knit a small strap in garter stitch, which will make a knot in the middle of the bow.
Now the decoration is ready and can be sewn to the hat. With this decoration, the beanie hat will stand neatly and not fall over.
Oversized beanie for girls
An oversized beanie hat for a girl looks good. With pompoms and simple patterns, she's just perfect. The baggy shape adds something unusual and even a little fabulous.
To work you will need:
- children's yarn;
- knitting needles number 3.
Simple patterns for creating a hat are purl stitch and elastic with 2*2 knitting needles. We determined the number of loops from the sample and cast on the required number with knitting needles. We immediately begin knitting with an elastic band according to the pattern. To turn the cap up, you need to tie a long elastic band. 20 cm will do.
Next we go to purl stitch pattern. For it, you need to knit purl stitches in the knit stitches, and, on the contrary, knit stitches in the purl row. Knitting occurs in two threads. This way the hat will be warmer and will better keep its shape with beautiful curves. A very long product should hang well. Therefore, you need to add 7, or even 8 cm to the height of the hat. No reduction, just pull the last row very, very tightly.
Then cut out a pompom and sew it to the finished hat.
The oversized beanie model is ready.
Beanie with braids
Another model that captivates at first sight and you can’t help but buy such a hat for your little girl. But you can do it yourself. What is most important is that you can choose yarn to match the jacket and the little fashionista will simply be the embodiment of the 2018 trend.
To work you will need:
- yarn of different colors with good transitions and combinations;
- knitting needles number 3.
Work begins with a sample and the first set of loops. You can knit similar patterns with ears - they are suitable for beanie hats. Tie with an elastic band 2*2 for about 7 cm and then to the braid pattern. This model will require a slight decrease. You need to decrease stitches in every 4th row of the top third of the hat.No more than 6 loops around the entire circle should be removed. Pull the last loops and tie the thread tightly.
The product will be decorated with a chic and fluffy pompom. If desired, you can make a pompom from threads.
Popular products are very simplified diagrams. To be honest, the woman who got so rich by knitting interesting patterns of hats created them from simple patterns. More often it is a garter stitch or just a pearl pattern.
But it was all made of coarse and thick yarn, which makes the child’s face even more innocent.
In general, there is nothing complicated here and anyone who wants to make a beautiful thing will do it. Creative new products and fashionable children's things with knitting needles.
