Knitting clothes for dolls is an exciting activity for both mother and daughter. You can try yourself as a designer, cutter and knitter, and your daughter, watching your work and helping you, will certainly learn needlework.
It is necessary
- - leftover yarn;
- - knitting needles or hook number 1-1, 5;
- - threads.
Instructions
Step 1
Any leftover yarn in your home will work for knitting doll clothes, and the thinner the threads, the better.
Step 2
Build a pattern for the future product. Wrap the doll's body gently with foil, cut off any excess, then gently straighten and transfer the pattern to the paper. Make a base pattern for the bodice and pants. Starting from this pattern, you can model any thing.
Step 3
Link a sample. He will help you calculate the required number of loops and rows. Measure the width of the specimen, divide the number of stitches you put on by this value, and you will get the number of stitches in one centimeter. Then multiply the number of loops in 1 cm by the required size of the product.
Step 4
Make a typesetting row and knit to the required size, then make decreases or increases, according to your pattern.
Step 5
After tying all the necessary details, sew them and sew a small piece of Velcro or hooks as a fastener, so it will be more convenient to unbutton and button the clothes. If you choose hooks, then you do not need to sew a loop for them, since you can simply hook them onto the knitted fabric. Small buttons are also popular. They can be sewn on or glued to garments.
Step 6
It is more convenient to knit a hat and socks for a doll on five knitting needles. Take the description of the item you like and reduce the number of typesetting loops, according to the measurements of the doll. Then knit in a circle, in the same way as indicated in the description.
Step 7
It is very convenient to crochet clothes for dolls, with its help you can create extraordinarily beautiful outfits. A thin hook No. 1-1, 5 and cotton threads, for example, "Iris" or "Snowflake", are suitable for this. You can also knit wonderful fishnet things from simple threads # 40 or embroidery threads "Mouline".
Step 8
Decorate doll outfits with appliques, beads, pompoms. But please note that young children should not play with things that contain small details.
