Knitting sweaters for children is a real pleasure. Especially when you see your baby in hand-made things, there is even greater excitement to knit something new.
It is necessary
- - 250 g of New Baby Uni white yarn (100% sheep wool, 205/50 g);
- - 40 g of silver yarn De Luxe (62% viscose, 38% polyester, 154m / 20g);
- - 50 g of white Nuvoletta yarn (100% polyamide, 133 / 50g);
- - straight needles No. 3, 5 and No. 4;
- - 4 buttons.
Instructions
Step 1
Look through magazines with knitted baby things and choose the most suitable model for the season for your baby. For example, for a winter walk, a warm jacket made of white yarn with sheep's wool would be the best option, which will not allow your baby to freeze and give him an elegant look.
Step 2
Remember, sweaters should always be knitted from the back. So cast on 66 stitches with Nuvoletta twofold and knit with # 3, # 5 and # 4 garter stitch 2 cm pattern for the planks. Then, in the following sequence, knit with the front stitch: 2 rows of white, 2 rows of thread in 2 additions of silver and white thread.
Step 3
After 17 cm, close three loops for armholes on both sides, then for raglan bevels in every second row, decrease 1 loop on both sides 19 times. And after 31 cm, loosely close the remaining 22 loops.
Step 4
Next, start knitting the right shelf of the sweater. To do this, cast on 32 loops and knit a bar like on the back. Then knit with the front stitch in the sequence shown.
Step 5
Do the armhole and raglan as on the back. After the 12th raglan decrease, close to round off the neckline on the right side in every second row 2 * 3, 1 * 2, 1 * 1, 1 * 0. Note that you should end up with 17 subtractions. After that, close the last three loops and tie the left shelf in the same way, but symmetrically.
Step 6
Now proceed with the left sleeve. To do this, cast on 40 loops and knit with a pattern for the planks, exactly as on the back. Then, in the specified sequence, knit with the front stitch. At the same time, for the bevels of the sleeves, add 1 loop on both sides in each 6th row 7 times, and again after 17 cm close three loops on both sides.
Step 7
Next, for the raglan bevels, reduce on both sides in each 2nd row 17 times, 1 loop each. And after the 17th decrease in the raglan, decrease at the end of the knitting needle 4 loops 2 times. After the 19th raglan decrease, close the remaining 4 loops. Tie the right sleeve symmetrically.
Step 8
Follow the strips of the shelves as follows. Take again knitting needles # 3, 5, cast on 7 loops with white thread and knit 24 cm. Do not forget to make 4 holes for the buttons. Sew the bar to the edges and sew on the buttons.
