To be able to knit and never pay attention to arans is simply a crime, it is such a beautiful pattern. Knitting is always associated with arans and braids.
The words knitted product, and already before your eyes a blouse, sweater or other product, but always with braids or arans.
Today we will talk about skirts that are made with complex but very powerful patterns with arans. Each model is beautiful, each is unique and each has a beautiful and clear description.
Yarn and knitting needles
For arans it is better to use light colors. This way the braids that go into the arans will be more clearly visible. As for the thickness of the fiber, Arans have their own preferences.
It is advisable to pay attention to the average thickness of the thread or to particularly thick yarns. There is simply no point in making some fabulous weaves from thin fiber. The loops will simply be lost and neither the pattern nor the braid will be visible. Knitting needles for medium and thick fiber yarns, respectively.
Sample
For braids, it is very important to knit the pattern. Only here it is very important to note that the larger the product, the more the thread will be pulled together. In this case, a small square will not work.
Aranas require a lot of yarn, so it is worth knitting a larger sample. This will tell you more precisely how many loops, repeats, and how many rows the item will require.
Step-by-step instructions on how to knit an aran skirt
You can simply get lost in arans before you find your unique model. Based on the results of many pages, the newest and most luxurious models were found. Plus - also the most fashionable products for this season. They turn out voluminous and unusual.
Skirt with royal braid
A very elegant and unusual model. More suitable for teenagers. This curvy model combines a beautiful bun and original royal braids.
The work requires:
- black yarn;
- knitting needles number 4.
Measurements
Measure your waist circumference in cm and immediately knit a sample and estimate how many loops will be needed for the elastic band of the model.
Rubber
Use a 2*1 elastic band for this charm. One front loop must be visible from the outside of the product. Smooth side inside. Knit 20-25 cm of the presented elastic band. In the model, 168 loops are approximately required for the elastic band.
The basis
It is very important to pay attention to the increase immediately after the elastic. Just do not add along the entire circumference, but strictly between the braids. Initially, make 3 tangle loops between the braids and then in each row add two additional loops to the strip for the tangle pattern. Make additions until 20 loops are used in the tangle.
For a skirt size 46 circumference, 8 repeats with pigtails were used. The optimal length for this outfit is just above the knee.
Aran flared midi skirt
A cute outfit with such a midi will appeal to young ladies and older women. Clear arans are a combination of diamonds and braids. Gradual expansion of the diamonds down the product is a very effective technique.
The work requires:
- sand-colored yarn;
- knitting needles number 2.
Measurements
Measure the length from the waistline or slightly below, since the model will not have a high waist to the line below the knee by 17 cm.
Rubber
It’s good to highlight the elastic band. This is both a decorative element and very convenient in the model. For this purpose, it is necessary to knit 8 cm of a simple stockinette stitch.
The basis
Then go to the diagram and calculate how many repeats are needed for your model. For size 48, 14 rapports are required. Next, each diamond must be increased by 4 loops and 4 rows as you knit down. To increase the rows, it is necessary to increase the middle of the rhombus, that is, make the corners 2 rows later and after the corner, 2 more additional rows will appear to narrow the figure.
The result will be no more than 4 rapports down. If you want to make the model very curvy, then you should add diamonds not by 4 loops and 4 rows, but by 8 or more.
Assembly
In the assembly you only need to sew the edge of the elastic on the front satin stitch and then simply insert a wide elastic about 4 cm wide.
The model is ready and just requires fitting and a qualitative assessment of the result.

Measure
In measurements, it is better to use two simple measurements - the waist and the length of the entire product from the same waist. But it is advisable to measure the model several times as you knit.So as not to tie it too short, so that someone would call it midi. But there is no need for a product that is too long; it will drag along the floor, and it is very inconvenient to constantly support something.
Rubber
Compared to arans, it is performed in the simplest way, which almost every master has mastered for quite some time. So, knit 2 widths of the prepared elastic band using stockinette stitch. You can knit 2.1 cm wide, but it is better to knit from wider ones.
The basis
It so happened that the model has two schemes at once. The point is not that they were found separately or that something did not allow them to be made together. They are very voluminous, and therefore it is better to divide them in half and read them separately when working.
Pattern number one is diamonds. The instructions show a model of size 46 and therefore it requires repeating in a circle only 10 times. The number of repeats of the first pattern must be even so that the subsequent pattern is correct.
After knitting the diamonds, the second aran pattern begins, which is combined with the lovely stripes of the stockinette stitch. This pattern is presented in its entirety in the description.
To expand the pattern, additions occur along the front stripes of the surface.
Border
The border or border of the floor-length skirt is made of garter stitch. For it you just need to knit facial loops in each row, not only in the front, but also in the purl. Knit 10 rows and finish knitting.
