Materials, tools
Creating a belt is simple. For this you need to stock up on very warm yarn. Since a person will not wear this product on a naked body, you can use a very warm type of yarn - this is dog hair yarn.
For the thread, select the appropriate number of knitting needles. You will also need fasteners and a measuring tape, which will help you get the size right when creating a new item.
Velcro can be used as a fastener, which is often used on factory belts.
The product uses a special small fastener, with its help the belt will fit very tightly to the body and not get in the way. The clutch line will be very smooth, like lightning.
Instructions on how to knit a dog hair belt with knitting needles
A very convenient model of a belt made from dog hair is made according to the following instructions.
Sample
We measured our back using a measuring tape.
Then knit a small square using a 2*2 elastic band, and determine the knitting density for it (how many loops and how many rows there are in 10 cm of the 2*2 elastic pattern). Next, you need to convert the cm into loops, and you can begin the creative process.
Rubber
Knitting starts from the top of the waistband and continues down. First you need to cast on loops for the elastic band. Already determined the size. For example, for a waist of 68 cm you will need 140 loops, plus additional loops for the outer parts in the fastener area. Knit 2*2 elastic bands according to the pattern and add 4 additional loops for fastening. Two loops on each side and perform them with simple facial loops. Don't forget about 2 edges, since knitting is not circular. We knitted the height for the elastic according to our model. For this belt, 20 cm was used.
Front fabric of the belt
After the elastic is completed, the front fabric is used. To do this, simply move from the 2*2 elastic loops to a new pattern without adding or subtracting loops. And in the first row, every 4 loops we make yarn overs for an additional elastic band of the belt. In the next purl row, knit the yarn over together with the purl loop using a simple purl stitch. Continue to knit 6 rows without crochets and start decreasing.
Decreases
To decrease, you should decrease 2 stitches on each side in every second row. Knit this way until the length of the front fabric is 20 cm. Then simply close the loops. You can use special elastic edge methods for closing, then the belt will be even tighter along the bottom edge.
Assembly
All that remains is to fasten the fasteners on the inside of the belt so that it fits more tightly to the body. Additionally, insert an elastic band into the places where the yarn overs were made. But do not tighten the rubber band too tightly.
There you have it, a warm belt made from dog hair that is very beneficial for your back.
If you have grandparents, mothers and fathers, then they will definitely be happy with such a warm gift. Health must be protected from a young age and therefore let such a belt be in every home.
