Fluffy mohair (kid mohair) and knitting needles

Mohair can come in different thicknesses, and this is always indicated on the yarn package. Accordingly, the yarn produced is different in weight and length. Different manufacturers can make balls of different lengths. This should be taken into account when choosing a product to create a hat.

Knitting needles that are suitable for mohair knitting are actually no different from regular knitting needles. Therefore, all that remains is to choose the model of the knitting needles themselves and their number according to the thickness of the thread.

Most often, the manufacturer indicates on each skein the number of knitting needles that can be used to knit with this thread.

Sample

You should be especially careful when working with mohair. In fact, this is one of the most difficult threads. The thing is that knitting occurs practically with your eyes closed, since the loops of the previous row will not be visible. Counting stitches is always very difficult. But there are some tips on how to do this accurately and accurately. Since counting the loops in a sample is always very important to determine the knitting density.

Subsequence:

• cast on stitches on knitting needles;
• knit rows and, as you knit, insert a ruler (count the knitted rows at the same time), when it is 10 cm, stop knitting and write down the number of loops;
• place a ruler to the edge of the knitting needle with the last row of loops and count the number of loops in 10 cm (this is the most convenient way to count loops).

That's all the secrets regarding determining the knitting density for kid mohair.

Knitted mohair hat

Knitting a mohair hat after determining the knitting density is not so difficult. The work is practically no different from ordinary yarn. But you shouldn’t rush with such soft yarn, there is another danger hidden in it.

Important! In fact, it will not be possible to unravel the fabric, and therefore you should calculate the density in advance and determine how many loops will be needed to complete the product. But when unraveling, the fuzz on the thread will tear, and this will only make the yarn tangle and become much thinner, and accordingly, the fabric may turn out uneven.

Next is a mohair model and a detailed description for it with a lapel, and a stunning model made from the fluffiest bright mohair with an equally charming pom-pom. We are in a hurry to make cool hats for ourselves from warm and beautiful yarn.

To work you will need:

• pink mohair yarn;
• knitting needles by yarn number;
• hook according to thread number;
• label for handmade products for decoration;
• bead for the central part of the flower.

Measurements

First, and this is a prerequisite for creating a good hat, you need to take two measurements. The first is the circumference of the cap. This is the simplest measurement and in this case the tape goes from the forehead line and goes to the occipital protuberances.

For such a hat, you should subtract 2 cm around the circumference so that the hat fits tightly and does not fall off, but is true to size. Next comes the second measurement, and this is called the depth of the cap, this is simply the length of the product. For her, the tape is led from the lobe of one ear to the top of the head, and then to the lobe of the other ear. But this size also has its adjustments. The first is division by 2, since the length of the cap will be up to the top of the head.

Then increments must be made according to the model, and in this case there will be only three of them:

• on the lapel – 5 cm;
• on the top of the head -3 cm;
• to cover the ears well - 2 cm.

Sample

A detailed description of how to count the loops for the sample is above. But for this model you should knit a sample and use the 2*1 rib pattern for this.

A cap

Cast on the required number of loops around the circumference on circular knitting needles and knit in circular rows according to the first pattern - this is a 3*1 rib. Knit the bottom third of the cap and then move on to the second pattern - this is 2*1. Use the second pattern to complete the second third of the hat and switch to the third pattern 1*1. Knit 1/2 with this elastic band. Then decrease in every 4 rows by 6 stitches.Knit to the required length and gather all the loops into one. Pull the thread and the hat is ready.

Emblem

Make a flap for the cap and sew a tag to the flap.

Flower

According to the given pattern, crochet 5 petals.

Assembly

Sew the petals to the cap and sew a bead in the center.

To work you will need:

• red kid mohair yarn;
• knitting needles by yarn number;
• a fur pom pom that suits the color red.

Measurements

Measure the circumference of the head and subtract exactly 2 cm. Measure the depth for the hat and add 3 cm.

Sample

Knit a sample, but for it use the stockinette stitch of kid mohair red thread. Next, calculate the knitting density and determine the set of loops to create a hat.

Rubber

Using a 1*1 elastic band, knit 10 rows.

The basis

Using stockinette stitch, knit 1/2 of the hat and begin decreasing.

crown

For the crown, make the following decreases: in each 3rd row, decrease 6 loops. Knit to the required height and thread the thread through all the loops at once. A hook will help you do this. Just pull the thread through each loop. Then pull all the loops tightly together and tie them into a good knot. Hide the thread inside the cap.
