Knitted stole

Man has always strived to be unique and his accessories speak for him. Previously, the stole was part of the costume, and bore the burden of the national product. Now the time is different, and his role has become completely different. They are all different, and serve as a stylish accessory, and make any person’s outfit different from others, making it unique.

Selection of yarn for stole and knitting needles

You can use completely different types of yarn for a stole. Since this product will not lie on a naked body, rather coarse varieties of yarn are often used for it. As for the fiber itself, it can be warm and consist of a large amount of wool. But there are also more delicate and lightweight models that are made of thin cotton or silk, as well as sectional yarn. This is at the discretion of the author.

Knitting needles for any product must be of the appropriate number and must be suitable in thread thickness.

The master also chooses separate or circular knitting needle models himself. But for a larger canvas width, you should pay attention to circular ones.This way there is less risk of stitches accidentally falling off the needles.

Luxurious stole knitted

Knitting a stole means not only having great talent. It's also about patience. Since the product should be voluminous. Fine The dimensions of an average stole range from 1.5 to 2 meters in length. But the width can also reach up to 2 meters. Patterns are not always easy to make.

Some models require constant counting and transferring of loops so that the pattern does not stand across the canvas and does not become askew.

For beginners, choose simple patterns for knitting. Everyone will be able to find both warm winter models and thin lightweight products. You can decorate with a border or yarn called “grass”.

Stoles can be quickly knitted in a variety of patterns: cobwebs, zigzag, streams, with autumn leaves, etc. They are much more practical than down shawls, snoods and just scarves; they can be used as a luxurious, cozy cape.

Advice! Fashion designers offer a knitted stole as a transformer to wear instead of a cardigan under a stylish belt.

Below are the most beautiful models of stoles that craftsmen made with their own hands. For each product there is a detailed step-by-step guide and an abundance of diagrams.

Yellow stole with curls and leaves

Original and bright model. It combines not two patterns, but even three. This pigtails or flagella (coils) that are located along the edges (photo). The leaves occupy a central position between the braids. We knit beautiful diamonds, it is very difficult not to highlight them in the resulting pattern. As a result, one scheme has three fashionable patterns at once. They have merged together so much that it is difficult to imagine the pattern without any of the elements.

For work use:

• yarn with the addition of natural wool;
• knitting needles according to the thickness of the wool thread;
• additional knitting needles for making braids.

Measurements

Measure two indicators for a stole: its width and length. It should not drag on the floor, and it should not be so short that it falls easily if moved awkwardly. Therefore, think about the required dimensions in advance. But it is better to make the length at least 1 meter.

Sample

In order to make a stole exactly to size, you must first knit a special sample. It is made from yarn for a stole, and performed only according to the pattern proposed for it. You don’t need to knit a huge pattern; it’s enough to make it from 30 stitches of the set.

Then, using a measuring device, place it exactly vertically and measure how many loops there will be. Then measure exactly horizontally and how many loops there will be. These two numbers will make up the knitting density. They will help you choose the right size not only for the initial set of loops, but also for the entire length of the product.

Description

Make a set of loops for the stole. This model has dimensions of 60 by 140 cm. Knit directly from the provided pattern. Initially, take into account the number of repeats in the set, and make the number of loops a multiple of the repeat and plus an additional two edge loops. Knit the edge loops according to all the rules so that the edge is even.

First loop just remove for each row, and purl the last one (regardless of the pattern). Knit the required number of rows. Make sure that there is an even and beautiful ending to the rapport. Finish knitting with the usual closure of the loops; you can use the elastic edge when closing the loops.

This is how a stole is created. You can’t do it in one evening, but several evenings will help you complete what you started. You can decorate it to your taste. Who loves tassels - for short sides you can use short tassels or make the edge completely with fluffy fringe.

Stole with 3D pattern

An original and modern idea is to make a 3D pattern on canvas using knitting needles. Unusual geometric patterns with knitting needles and 3D have become very fashionable - this is one of such patterns. The lush fringe made of contrasting thread adds zest to this product and completeness. The result is a very distinct and fashionable product. Let's look at the detailed master class.

For work use:

• pekhorka yarn of different colors;
• knitting needles according to the thickness of the yarn.

Measurements

Measure the dimensions of the required product. For length, use from a meter, and for width, you can use 60 cm or more.

Sample

In order to correctly calculate the number of loops, you will need to knit a simple square using the stockinette stitch of one of the threads, and calculate the knitting density to it. These are two numbers. The first number will be the number of loops in a row per 10 cm, and the second number is the number of rows for the fabric. Next, calculate how many loops will be needed to cast on, and how many rows will need to be used to complete the product.

Description

Make a set of loops, and be sure to respect the number of loops for repeat. This set should be a multiple of the rapport. Knit according to the jacquard pattern to the required height, and then simply bind off the loops.

Decoration

A very lush fringe along the entire edge of the product can serve as decoration. It must be done contrasting threads. But you don't need to make the threads too long. A hook will help to connect the fringe and the fabric. Simply bend the threads in half and first thread the resulting loop through the fabric. Then pull all the resulting threads through the loop.Tighten it tighter and one fringe is ready. Do this with each bunch.

Important! To make the fringe even, you need to cut an equal number of threads.

Here is the finished model of a fashionable stole with your own hands. To ensure that the jacquard threads do not interfere, you can simply knit two fabrics using this pattern and sew them on the sides.

Bright red stole with diamonds knitted

An excellent model of a stole with knitting needles is made using an unusual pattern with knitting needles. This pattern belongs to more complex patterns, but a beginner can complete it if he does not deviate from the basic pattern. This will require master yarn overs and simple stockinette stitch. In some places you will have to knit two loops together. The original decoration was used for this model. Further details with diagrams and a step-by-step description of the work.

To work you will need:

• red yarn (you can use thread with gold inclusions);
• knitting needles according to the thickness of the thread.

Measurements

It is better to take measurements from the person himself. Make the edges of the stole to the middle of the chest.

Sample

Make several repeats in width and height, and measure how many are needed for 10 cm of loops and rows in height. Next, compare according to the measurements and select a suitable set of loops in width and height.

The basis

Cast on how many loops are needed, and take into account the number of repeats. Additionally, add 4 loops along each edge, and make them according to the garter stitch pattern. It should be a very nice border. Make the model in the shape of a square canvas, and it is better to make the ends triangular.

The pattern will be diamonds, and therefore this shape is quite suitable for the model. Knit the required number of repeats. Make sure that after knitting the middle of the fabric, the knitting is symmetrical in the pattern.

Decoration

For decoration, use figures that are very similar to pompoms. But do not make them furry and not completely, do not cut through the threads at the end. Let it turn out to be a ball, pulled in the middle. Use these funny pompoms to decorate the entire knitted base along the edge.

This will make a nice and quite warm model.

Knitting beautiful stoles is quite an interesting activity. Get an additional dose of positivity from making a fashionable product and the fashionable and warm product itself. A stole will warm and decorate your look.
