As it often happens, I like the model very much, but the technical description is given for sizes that often do not fit. There is a way out of the situation - you need to increase the knitted fabric.
It is necessary
- - tape measure;
- - yarn;
- - knitting needles.
Instructions
Step 1
To increase the size of the model, an increase in the number of loops is required. This is easy to do for things that use simple knitting when knitting, for example, front satin, shawl, rice, and so on. To calculate the required number of loops for knitting in this case, make a sample with the yarn from which you will knit the model.
Step 2
Next, count how many loops there are in 10 cm of the sample and divide this number by 10. Thus, you will get the average number of loops in 1 cm. If you did not get a whole figure, do not round it, otherwise the calculation will not be accurate.
Step 3
Determine the width of each piece in centimeters. Multiply this number by the number of loops in one centimeter. You will get the required number of loops for the typesetting row.
Step 4
If a fancy pattern is used in the model, which is knitted according to the pattern, so that knitting does not cause any problems, and the pattern is located in the place where it was intended, the change in the number of loops should be commensurate with its rapport.
Step 5
Tie the sample as described above, take the necessary measurements and count the number of loops in the part. Then count the stitches in one repeat. Divide this figure by the number of rapports in the detail. Integer - as many complete rapports will need to be repeated in detail.
Step 6
Divide the remaining number of loops by two. Knit these loops at the beginning and end of the part, first starting from the end of the rapport. For example, with your calculations 38 loops for knitting a pattern and 10 loops remain for which you need to increase the detail. Therefore, divide 10 by 2 to get 5 loops. In the rapport, count the last 5 loops and start knitting the part with them, then repeat the rapport and knit 5 loops of the beginning of the rapport.
Step 7
In the case when the changes in size differ slightly, then knit the neckline and armholes as indicated in the description for the largest size. If the change is more than two sizes, then in the middle of the front and back, close more loops, lengthen the back, in front of the product and the sleeve detail.
