Hats with a visor practically never go out of fashion. You can, for example, update an old knitted beret by tying this part to it. You will get a fashionable cap. A similar addition is appropriate on helmets. Many extravagant ladies wear such hats with pleasure. Your child will surely like a helmet with a visor that protects the face from wind and raindrops. It is most convenient to knit such hats with knitting needles. In order for them to better keep their shape, a rigid gasket is made.
It is necessary
- - unfinished headdress;
- - yarn;
- - knitting needles for the thickness of the yarn;
- - a piece of thin plastic.
Instructions
Step 1
The most popular way to make a visor is to knit it in one piece, in shortened and elongated rows. If you start to make a hat from this part of it, calculate the loops for hosiery or garter knitting. Loops on knitting needles are typed in the usual way. Start knitting from the top.
Step 2
Tie a couple of rows with knit stitches or hosiery. It depends on the style of the headdress and on what pattern you are finishing it with. Begin to decrease the loops from the third row, but do not close them, but simply do not tie along the edges. In the third and fourth rows, remove untied 2 loops at the end, and in the fifth and sixth - one at a time. In the next row, knit all the loops, and in the eighth, ninth and tenth - do not tie in 2. Make the eleventh and twelfth rows shorter by 1 loop, in the thirteenth and fourteenth rows, remove 3. Do not forget that all the loops remain with you. knitting needles, you just do not knit the edges.
Step 3
From the fifteenth row, lengthen the rows in the same order in which you shortened them. This will already be the bottom of the visor, and it should be exactly the same as the top. Therefore, knit three more loops in the fifteenth and sixteenth rows than in the previous ones. At the end, you should have the same number of stitches on the knitting needles as at the beginning.
Step 4
Cut a gasket out of the plastic. A transparent package of the appropriate size from some digital technology is suitable for it. Insert the gasket into the visor and sew the finished piece to the headdress with a stitching stitch.
Step 5
The visor can also consist of two parts. In this case, they knit it not in shortened and elongated rows, but simply close the required number of loops at the beginning of each row. The scheme for reducing the number of loops is approximately the same as in the described method.
Step 6
If you are knitting a cap or helmet from above, the visor can be knitted without tearing. Tie the hat to the bottom edge. Determine where you will have your visor. Leave only these loops and close or remove the rest on an additional knitting needle. Then knit according to the same principle as described. Make the shortened rows in a specific pattern. By the way, it may be different, depending on the width of the visor. It is necessary to maintain symmetry and make the upper and lower parts the same.
