"Chinchilla" (cardigan) with knitting needles: patterns, description and features
A cardigan is an elongated jacket of a straight cut. The name of this type of clothing comes from the name of the English Count Cardigan. He lived at the beginning of the nineteenth century. This man is famous for his special love for long jackets. Then such clothes were worn only by men. Today, cardigans are worn by both men and women. They can be either with a clasp or without it. Sometimes cardigans are knit with large pockets.
Pattern
Cardigan "Chinchilla" looks very nice andeffectively, this explains its special popularity. Such a pattern can knit different things. But especially popular is the cardigan, tied in this way.
At first glance, knitting this product requiresspecial skill. But this is not so. The main thing is to understand the essence of the pattern. After that, the description is almost unnecessary. It is only necessary to make the calculations correctly at the initial stage.
The method of knitting the pattern "Asian spikelet"
It is necessary to type the number of loops that would correspond to the length of the finished height of the future fabric. The number of loops should be a multiple of 6, considering the edge.
1 row - bind 6 facial, turn the work, not tying the rest of the loops.
2 row - we sew 6 back loops.
3-10 row - we knit only these 6 loops, turning knitting.
11 row - we sew 6 facial, the next 3 from the typing edge. Turn knitting.
12 row - we sew 6 purlins, turn knitting, not tying the rest of the loops.
13-22 row - we knit only 6 loops, turning knitting.
After all on the loops we sew 2 rows of facial smoothness. Turn knitting to the wrong side.
We repeat everything from the first row, only on the wrong side, in the other direction. The description of the cardigan "Chinchilla" is attached below. You have already seen the photo. It is interesting to learn how to make such beauty?
Cardigan "Chinchilla"
This cardigan is worn in early autumn or late winter, because it is very warm.
Knitting cardigan "Chinchilla" requires patience andlarge consumption of yarn. You need to prepare 1.5-2 kg of thick volumetric yarn. The needlewomen use different: "Slonimskaya" in 8 threads, "Lanagold 800" in 4 threads, "Angora Ram" in 5 threads, etc. Each needlewoman chooses a suitable yarn for her, with the appropriate number of loops.
Effectively look spikelets cardigan "Chinchilla",executed by a gradient. Remember that in this case it is better to use a thin thread, for example a bobbin thread. Each thread must be introduced gradually. So the transition from color to color will be smooth.
The recommended length of the product is 80 centimeters.
What is the best way to knit a cardigan?
First you need to draw a cardigan pattern. For example, the size of 42-44 it will consist of 9 bands. Each strip is a separate spikelet. Each of them should be numbered, for convenience. So, 1 and 9 - it's a collar, 2 and 8 - a shelf, 3 and 7 - armhole, 4, 5, 6 - back.
As you have already seen, the knitting of the cardigan "Chinchilla" can take place either as a whole cloth or as separate stripes.
Most needlewomen knit this cardigansecond way. After preparing all the elements, the spikelets are sewn. In this case, a seam is formed between them. To some, he gives discomfort. Therefore, knitting a cardigan with a single linen has many advantages. The first is the absence of seams. The second is the possibility of fitting a semi-finished product.
Calculation of loops
Today we will knit cardigan "Chinchilla", the scheme and description of which are attached above, with a single canvas. When the carcass is ready, all the stripes and collar are sewn in half.
Suppose, the length of the product will be 85 cm, the hip girth - 90.
We knit the sample with knitting needles and threads, from which the cardigan will be connected in the future. We calculate in the free position the width of one spikelet. Let's say it will be 13 cm.
Now the 9 bands * 13 cm = 117 cm.
This is a normal indicator, and the cardigan will not hang on you. Under its weight, it will stretch out slightly and will be more voluminous.
The sample consists of 28 loops, 6 grains. The first seed consists of 8 loops, and the next one consists of four loops. You can adjust the grain width yourself. After all, for example, in the description of the pattern, the width of 1 grain is 6 loops. The volume of the future product depends on this. Therefore, each needlewoman should find the best knitting option for this product.
On the collar there were collected 132 loops (32 grains).
31 * 4 = 124 loops.
124 + 8 n = 132 loops.
When the shelf is loosened, 3 grains, or 12 loops, are cut.
When tying the armhole, we close 7 grains, or 28 loops. Only 92 loops.
The back should be the same with the shelf, so you need to add an additional 28 loops to 7 grains. A total of 120 loops or 29 grains.
After tying 92 n armholes, 120 n shelves, 132 n collars.
Calculate the length of the product. A sample of 6 grains in length is 16 cm. Hence, in 1 grain 16/6 = 2.67 cm.
The number of grains on the back of the product corresponds to the future length of the cardigan. Therefore, 29 * 2.67 = 77.5 cm. Such a length of the product suits us.
Sleeves consist of 2 spikelets. One more, one less (24 and 17 grains). The difference between them is the armhole.
Knitting
We begin knitting the "Chinchilla" cardigan with knitting needlescollar. We dial 132 loops. We send 2 rows. Now we knit by the description of the pattern. The first 8 loops we sew 14 rows. Now with the main loops we sew another 4 loops, and on the wrong side we sew 8 loops already. So we knit 14 rows. Continue knitting in the same way until the end.
When the row is fully knit, knitting must be turned to the wrong side. We sew the whole series with the wrong loops. So we connect all the seeds together.
The second row we sew on the front side with facial loops. So we sew another 2 rows.
The following seeds are sealed on the purlside purl loops on the same principle as on the front side. Thus, the grains will look the other way. We bind all the grains to the end of the row.
Now, from the front side, we connect all the grains together, tying all the loops. We knit another row in this way.
The collar is ready, now 12 loops should be closed to unfasten the shelf. We send 2 more rows together. We knit a new spikelet in the same way as the previous one.
By the same principle, we untangle the entire cardigan. Close the hinges.
Assembling the product
- The right sleeve is tied off the smaller spikelet in the same way as the main cloth.
- The left sleeve is tied with a larger spikelet in the same way as the main fabric.
- Sew the sleeves from the bottom on the front side of the loop into the loop.
- Now sew the shoulder seams of the loop into the loop on the front side.
- Sew the collar between itself and to the back in the same way, loop into the loop.
