Crochet allows you to create unique and stylish items that will look current and attractive. Today we will look at how to knit several interesting and fashionable models of women's outerwear: a crocheted sweater with a hood, a Japanese sleeveless vest and a jacket.
Hooded jacket with crochet
The women's crocheted hooded sweater is a cozy and stylish addition to your wardrobe that will keep you warm during the cold season. The knitting pattern for such a sweater can be divided into several main stages.
Materials and tools:
- Yarn (it is better to choose soft and warm, natural or mixed);
- A hook of a suitable size (usually indicated on the bobbin of yarn);
- Meter and scissors.
Knitting sweater body
Knitting begins with the main element - the body of the sweater. First we knit the back and front, then we join them together and add sleeves. You can choose any knitting style, for example, “single crochet” or “double crochet”.
Knitting sleeves
The sleeves of the sweater can be knitted separately and then carefully sewn to the main part. This will make the sleeves fit perfectly.
Knitting a hood
The hood is the key element of the jacket. Knit it separately, starting from the bottom and ending with the top. Finally, the hood is sewn to the neck of the jacket.
So, the crocheted sweater with a hood according to the pattern is ready!
Sleeveless Japanese crochet vest
The Japanese sleeveless vest is an original item that can be worn either on its own or over other clothes.
Materials and tools:
- Yarn (preferably natural or mixed);
- Suitable size hook;
- Meter and scissors.
Knitting Japanese sleeveless vests
The Japanese sleeveless vest begins with knitting the neck. To do this, we knit a chain of air loops, the length of which corresponds to the circumference of the head. Next, we knit a row of single crochets, then move on to knitting the shoulder part, where the raglan technique is used. In this technique, each row begins and ends with increasing stitches. Air loops are used for enlargement. Thus, the shoulder line is formed.
Then we move on to knitting the main part of the sleeveless vest, which we knit in straight rows to the desired length.
It is worth noting that a sleeveless Japanese raglan crochet vest with a pattern allows you to create a comfortable and functional item that will look great in any wardrobe.
Jacket with crocheted hood
A jacket with a hood is a comfortable and versatile item that can be worn at any time of the year. It will go perfectly with both jeans and skirts.
Materials and tools:
- Yarn (you can choose natural or mixed);
- Suitable size hook;
- Meter and scissors.
Knitting a jacket
Knitting a jacket begins with the main part - the back and front parts. This is done in a similar way to knitting a sweater, but the sleeves can be made looser and straighter.
Next we knit the sleeves, which we then carefully sew to the main part.
We complete the knitting of the jacket with a hood, which is also knitted separately and finally sewn to the neckline.
That's all! You have a stylish and comfortable jacket with a crocheted hood. All that remains is to choose the right yarn for it and enjoy the knitting process. Don't be afraid to experiment and create your own unique looks!
