So many things are made from thick fiber, why not make a comfortable product with a simple pattern. Next is a beautiful model for women (girls) made of beautiful and thick fiber with diagrams and a step-by-step description.

From the article you can find out what measurements you need to take for a vest, how to calculate the knitting density for bulky yarn. And the most important thing is how to combine all this and get the right set of loops.

Selection of yarn and knitting needles

Today, thick yarn has a very wide range, the choice is amazing. Yarn is a little more expensive than fine thread fabric.

Things made from thick yarn are made several times faster, and it’s nice to see huge knitting loops on the resulting product.

Sleeveless yarnMerino yarn is well suited for children's clothes, and it is also very warm. The Peruvian thread is very similar to it, some even confuse these threads, but there is a difference in them. And this is also a thick and very beautiful thread. You will have to choose among numerous lines, and also pay attention to the composition, additives, natural ingredients and the percentage of wool.

But it is better to create mittens and socks with short and comfortable stocking models.

Set of first stitches for 2 knitting needles
A very familiar wardrobe item can become very unusual. Who would have thought that initially this product belonged only to men, and even had a different name. A camisole is a part of a man's outfit, similar to a knee-length dress, fitted to the waist and flared at the bottom.

Currently The vest suits any style of your wardrobe.

Sleeveless vest knitted 1To work you will need:

  • yarn with thick thread;
  • knitting needles for the appropriate thread thickness.

The product is designed for size 46 and therefore below are detailed instructions for creating a vest for this particular size.

Measurements

The girl will need to take several measurements. The first is the length of the product from the shoulder to the required length. The second is the length from the bottom line to the beginning of the armhole to the sleeves. The next measurement is the width of the back or half the circumference of the waist.

Sample

Using stockinette stitch, you will need to knit a square in order to count the density of the knitting.These will be two numbers that reflect how many stitches a 10 cm row can accommodate, and how many rows there are in 10 cm vertically. Fix these two numbers and you can start calculating the stitches for casting on the back and front. A small proportion helps make calculations easier and avoid confusion. The unknown x will be a set of loops and this will be equal to the measures and in cm. The second part is the loops of 10 cm and themselves 10 cm. Using the ratio, calculate how many loops and rows each of the measurements will require.

Sleeveless stockinetteBack

For this model (size 46) I only needed to cast on 26 stitches for the back. Knitting begins with a simple stockinette stitch. It is necessary to knit the fabric to the armhole line under the sleeves without adding or decreasing stitches. This takes up 26 rows in total. Next, make a small bevel and bind off 2 loops in the first front row and 1 loop in the next front row.

Then knit 21 rows and bind off the middle 7 loops for the neckline. after the loops in the middle are closed, knitting continues separately for the right and left shoulders. For a smoother bevel along the neckline, in the next row you need to close another loop. Next, knit 3 rows without changes, and bind off the loops of one part. Go to knitting the second shoulder, and do the same in a mirror.

Before

Cast on 26 stitches for the front of the vest. This already includes edge loops. Knit 12 rows at once with the front fabric. Next, make an exit along the central part of the fabric to the wrong side of the fabric, and to do this, subtract four loops from 26. This is the middle of the purl stitch and divide into the 2 remaining loops. That is, if you divide 22 by two, you get 11 loops. This number of loops will be up to the purl fabric.

To get a diamond pattern on the front stitch, then in each front row you will simply need to add the purl fabric by one loop on each side of the diamond. Make additions over 9 rows. Then begin decreasing the loops in the same sequence as the addition. We should not forget about the bevel for the armhole. Make it at the same level as the back. Do the same with the neckline.

Assembly

Place the received vest pieces right sides together and you can begin to sew the shoulder seams. Then sew carefully along the side parts. It is difficult to work, since the thread is very thick, and everything must be done carefully. A vest for a girl made from yarn with a thick thread and knitted is ready. You can try it on and think about new works.

At this point, the vest is ready and you can turn the new item inside out and try it on. The interesting thing about the model is that the pattern does not require tying. The thread looks very neat along the edges, even the collar turns out beautiful without any processing. If desired, you can decorate the item. A floral pattern with large knitting looks good; flowers can be woven using the weaving technique with voluminous ribbons.

Measurements

To execute this model The following measurements must be taken:

  • the length of the entire product from the shoulder line;
  • length from the bottom of the vest to the beginning of the armhole (this is 6 cm below the armpit);
  • shoulder width (since the product will not be fitted).

Sample

In order not to make a mistake with the dimensions, it is necessary to knit a small fabric using the presented braid pattern and calculate the knitting density for it. That is, how many loops and rows are contained in 10 cm. Further transfer everything to cm according to the measurements, and you can start knitting the product.

Sleeveless vest braid pattern 1Before

For the front piece in size 44 you will need to cast on 34 stitches. The first 10 rows are elastic, it is carried out according to the scheme.

Sleeveless elastic pattern1 by 1 rib pattern with knitting needles:

1st row: cro/p, k/p, purl/p, repeat alternating knit and purl loops, cro/p.

2nd row: chrome/p, purl/p, knit/p, repeat alternating purl and knit loops, chrome/p.

Then move on to the braided pattern. Distribute the canvases immediately in the following order. First, krom/p, 2 knit stitches, 2 p/p, braid, 3 purl, braid, 3 p/p, braid, 2 purl, 2 k/p, chrome/p. As a result, the fabric should have three braids and a purl fabric; along the edges of the front shelf, edges should be formed due to the front stitch.

Knit 40 rows and make a neckline. For it, you need to close 6 loops in the middle of the fabric (this is one braid in the center). Next, knit the hangers one by one. To smooth the neckline, cast off 1 stitch each in 3 more rows. Knit another 9 rows and finish the shoulder. Also knit the second shoulder.

Back

For the back, you need to use a simple purl stitch and border stitches, as on the front shelf. Knit similarly to the front, but the width of the fabric should be 5 loops less. That is, to cast on, you should cast on not 34 loops, but only 29.

Important! Knit the back without braids from a smaller number of stitches, since the braids tighten the fabric and the width will always be smaller than any other stitch without crossing the stitches.

Assembly

In this model, pay attention to the fact that assembly precedes the execution of the neck. Since it is necessary to first fold the fabric with the right sides and then sew the shoulder seams with neat stitches. It will be more convenient to knit without making side seams and they should be left for last. Therefore, we turned it right side out and cast on the loops on circular needles.

Perform the collar using an elastic band 1 by 1. Knit a total of 10 rows. The collar will stand up because the thread is very thick. Next, all that remains is to sew on the side parts and try on the new vest.

Thanks to simple steps and very voluminous loops, this vest is made very quickly and looks like a million.
