To make the kids look smart both on weekdays and on holidays, tie different things for them. You can tie the child, as they say, from head to toe. Tie a hat, scarf, socks, mittens, pants, sweater or cardigan. And no frost will be terrible for your baby. You can also knit a dress and a skirt for a girl, a shirt-front and a poncho, and maybe a sleeping bag for a baby, and many more of a wide variety of products.

Instructions
Step 1
The first question that arises before starting knitting for a baby is: "What yarn to choose?" The main criterion, of course, is excellent yarn quality. For small children, high-quality acrylic, merino wool, alpaca wool, cotton and rayon are best suited. Choose a soft, thornless yarn. You should not buy mohair, angora, threads with lurex for children's clothing. Babies pull everything into their mouths and can easily choke on the mohair fluff that has got into their throats.
Step 2
For all kinds of suits, booties, mittens and bonnets, it is preferable to use thin threads so that the products are more comfortable to wear. The thickness of the yarn is usually indicated on the package in meters per 50 or 100g. For knitting children's clothing, yarn with a thickness of 135m by 50g to 200m per 100 g is suitable. To work with such threads, you will need a hook or knitting needles No. 3. And outerwear, a coat or jacket can be knitted from coarser and thicker yarn, in this case you should use a larger crochet hook and needles.
Step 3
Next, you should knit a sample 10 * 10 cm, with the selected pattern. It is easy to calculate the knitting density. You just need to see how many loops you got in one centimeter. Let's say the density of your knitting is 3 loops in one centimeter. Multiply this number of stitches by the required girth, so you get the required number of stitches for the typesetting row.
Step 4
After making the typesetting row, knit a few centimeters with an elastic band. It is best to knit with a 1 * 1 elastic band, as this elastic is the least prone to deformation and looks beautiful.
Step 5
Knit baby clothes from bright yarn. A drawing of your favorite cartoon character or some kind of plot will look nice on the product. In order to draw up a diagram of such a pattern, it should be transferred to the canvas, where one cell will be equal to one loop.
Step 6
For children's clothes, you can also use unusual knits, for example, knitting with elongated loops, the so-called "fur". Using this knitting method, you can knit both individual parts of the suit, for example, the collar, and the entire product. A jacket or vest knitted in this way will look like a real fur coat and your baby will really like it. Imagine and present your child with many beautiful and warm things associated with love and care.
