The Eiffel Tower knitted skirt just drove the girls crazy. Almost every girl dreams of finding her. This is no coincidence, since this model makes the legs slimmer. Very feminine and that’s probably why she’s so fashionable now. Craftsmen can make this model in a few evenings. More patience and the result is simply amazing.
Distinctive features of the Eiffel Tower skirt
The style of this skirt is distinguished by the following features. In fact, initially this model is fitted to the knee line, maybe slightly higher, it can be tight. But further, in order not to restrict movement and to show all your individuality, the skirt gradually grows in width. It turns out to be a very interesting hem with small waves. Only this is no longer required by the style, but by the pattern itself, since it is in honor of the pattern that the thing is so named - “Eiffel Tower”. Special arans, which follow their fabulous weaves along the entire length and are called towers.
Schemes of suitable patterns
What patterns are best to use for this unique thing?There are no difficulties here either and almost all arans are suitable. Slightly shifted and added stripes of stockinette stitch. Small examples of patterns that are ready to complete the project.
Familiar arans throughout the entire hem.
Complex aranas, but so beautiful.
A combination of arans and they have very long braids. The result is a very elongated pattern, it just tends upward.
Pleasant smoothed and even rounded aran patterns will definitely come in handy for this type of product.
Detailed description of knitting an Eiffel Tower skirt
Simply a charming model. But knitting such patterns is very painstaking. For a beginning master, this option may seem very difficult, but only until he has mastered the basic pattern. The pattern itself is simply infinitely simple. A detailed description of the Eiffel Tower skirt will not let you go astray.
The work will require:
- pekhorka yarn (you can knit children's yarn with medium thread thickness);
- knitting needles number 2;
- an additional pair of knitting needles for creating arans;
- elastic band 2 cm thick.
Stage: measurements. It is important to take good measurements before work. To do this, first apply the measuring tape to your waist - you will need your waist circumference. Next, go lower and determine the hip circumference. Measure the length from the waist to the floor. Usually girls wear such models with small heels and therefore it is better to measure immediately in shoes and measure not to the floor.
Stage: sample. Sample or insurance, which is always needed for any product. It is important to knit a small square according to the pattern of the fabric, and at the same time, training will take place to see how well you recognize the pattern and can reproduce it. We knitted a square and estimated how many loops and how many rows horizontally and vertically. It’s better to record everything on a piece of paper.At the same time, reconstruct the cm into loops according to the pattern and calculate how many repeats according to the pattern will be useful for creating the model.
Stage: elastic band. For size 44 you will need to cast on 180 stitches around the waist. This indicator is calculated based on the waist circumference and stitch density for the stockinette stitch. Knit 5 cm of stockinette stitch. Next in the assembly we will talk again about how and where to insert the elastic band.
Stage: pattern one. The entire product consists of two patterns, not counting the front surface - this is already very simple and understandable for a beginner. We looked at the diagram and saw that there are 26 loops for one repeat. That is, if you use 8 repeats in a circle for size 44, you will need 208 loops. There were only 180 loops in the set and therefore in the first row after completing the elastic you will need to add 28 loops evenly and imperceptibly. According to the model, you will need to knit two full repeats up and a half to move on to the next pattern.
Stage: second pattern. Let's move on to the second diagram and the addition of loops is indicated there. Knit arans strictly according to the pattern, and make additions according to the interval suggested in the pattern. It turns out that the increase occurs strictly along the facial stripes. Therefore, the item will have very smooth and cute extensions at the bottom of the hem.
Stage: border. It is very important to knit a tight border along the very edge, so you should calculate the size and set aside 2 cm for the border. Work it with a simple and beautiful garter stitch.
So the cutest product is ready. I just want to put on my most beautiful shoes for her and take a walk. She is so sweet and beautiful, this “Eiffel Tower” with knitting needles.
