A pretty lady always dreams of a cute hat. It’s time for her dreams to come true, because a knitted cloche hat is what she was looking for.
It will be very easy to make simple models with knitting needles and decorate them. Even beginners can make cute little products.
Yarn and knitting needles
There's just so much yarn out there right now. These hats are ready to accept a variety of threads. But especially delicate natures are not recommended to use prickly threads. They may provide warmth and a beautiful appearance, but they will not be very pleasant to wear.
The color of the yarn can be bright and very bold - this is the shade preferred by modern girls. For modest and discreet looks, it is better to try on dark gray and green, dark tones of red and blue. Decorations in the form of a bright brooch or a precious stone will ultimately not make this product boring.
Even fancy yarn can rejoice now, because it is better suited for such products than anyone else. Mohair can compete with it and a mohair cloche hat also looks decent.
Knitting needles will complement the yarn; depending on the model, these can be stocking or even straight knitting needles. The size will definitely depend on the thickness of the yarn.
Sample
It is always necessary to knit a sample before the cap, because how to find out what the initial set should be and how many rows will be required for knitting.
The knitting density is determined from a small square. These are the indicators of loops and rows per 10 cm.
Cloche hat knitted in garter stitch
A very cute mohair product that will make ladies look at cloche hats in a new way. Knitting goes from the bottom, only a garter stitch pattern is used, it is not difficult to knit with the description. The mohair fabric practically does not convey this pattern, but its meaning is that the cloche turns out to be a very dense product. Outwardly it resembles a hat made of felt or something very dense.
To work you will need:
- mohair yarn 200 g;
- knitting needles number 3.
Fields
The hat is knitted from the bottom. Therefore, we calculated how many loops were needed for the head circumference and added another 1/2 of this figure. We knitted 4 cm according to the fabric pattern. Then the rows with decreases begin. Make reductions evenly until the original addition around the circumference is reduced. This is where the fields will end.
Tulya
Knit with a crown to a depth of about 10 cm for the cap. These cm will be intended for the crown and a slight smooth rounding. Knitting occurs all the time in a garter stitch pattern.
crown
It is proposed to divide the knitting into 8 equal parts and not decrease in every row. You should get a very smooth rounding. When there are 15 loops left, pass the thread through all of them and pull the product together. Tie a knot and hide the threads inside the hat. Decorate the product on one side, make a small gather from the fields of the product.
Cloche hat with openwork patterns
A very peculiar knitting of a hat can confuse the craftsman. A special diagram will tell you the direction of movement. The model is designed for a head circumference of 51 cm.
To work you will need:
- yarn with 50% silk and 50% merino wool 3 skeins;
- knitting needles number 3.5.
Very interesting directions for knitting a hat. Initially, a transverse line of the openwork pattern is knitted and you specially need to make the remainder of the thread 51 cm. Make rows 16 times according to pattern A. The length of the part should be 51 cm.
Next, move to the crown according to scheme B.
Then join pattern C. Knit along it until there are 11 stitches left on the needles. Simply pull them together and hide the thread on the wrong side.
Figure D in the diagram does not refer to a hat, but with its help you can create a good snood.
After the crown, knitting moves on to the brim for the hat. To do this, on the remaining side of the openwork belt, cast on loops along the very edge and evenly. Knit with facial loops. In this model, there were 128 loops along the edge. To get an asymmetrical bevel, you need to introduce shortened rows on the side where you want more length. Knit about 5 cm and bind off all the loops.
The interesting thing is that the front surface will curl into a tube in this case. You won’t have to smooth anything out and that’s how it’s intended. You can decorate the product using a decorative button in the shape of a flower. If desired, you can tie a small bow and use the openwork pattern, as for the hat.
These are the elegant models you can make. As for the second model, instead of an openwork pattern in the belt, you can try on voluminous braids and even aranas. The master's imagination is inexhaustible. Therefore, we finish one product, but our thoughts are already overloaded with new work. Creative work and more time for your favorite things.
