Good afternoon, today's our topic is this is KNITTING HATS ... I will show you the most beautiful models of women's hats for the winter of 2016-2017 and tell you exactly how they are connected ... In this article I will reveal to you the general principle of knitting women's hats and berets(both crochet and knitting). You can already n about one photo to understand exactly how this hat is connected... and LEARN without diagrams and descriptions to figure out for yourself what and in what sequence you need to do in order to end up knitting just such a winter hat as in the photo.

Today we will knit ...

  • caps-caps on the needles (elongated and over the head)
  • beret hats on knitting needles and crochet (lush and not so)
  • women's turban hats (I will show one easy way on knitting needles)
  • knitted hats with brims and visors (I will tell you in detail how to make brims)
  • winter hats with graceful soft cuffs
  • and sun-dried woolen hats with designs like those of an English lady.

So let's start knitting our fall and winter hats.

Let's start with the simplest ones ... and move on as the task gets more complicated.

Women's hats with a SIMPLE KNITTING needles ...

(cut CAP)

The fastest hat to knit is when you just chose one simple pattern(elastic band, English elastic band, knitting-rice) ... And drive almost all (or even all) part of the canvas in one pattern. Starting from the top of the head - in each row we begin to decrease the loops, and when 15-20 loops remain on the knitting needles - we pull a thread through them - and simply pull them into one bundle-point at the back of the head. According to this principle, the hat in the photo below is tied - (25 rows of knitting of the "rice" pattern ... and 15 rows of purl loops with decrease).

And in the same knit with the "rice" pattern - it would be nice to knit a cozy snoody scarf (collar).

In such a RUNNING PATTERN (of the same type) can be connected as dense winter hat (on the head in a sticky) ... And so loose spacious knitted cap model. You can decorate a woman's hat with one or two fur pom-poms.

Can be knitted CAP-CAP - as in the photo below ... She looks best when it has a fairly wide (16-20 rows) elastic band... With a narrow elastic band, such a hat is not suitable for anyone ... as it visually cuts off the skull. A wide elastic band, on the contrary, visually stretches the oval of the face ... opens the forehead and adds volume.

To knit any hat pattern precise knitting pattern in principle, and is not needed ... Since all the hats in the world are knitted according to the general principle. Here below I give a general knitting pattern for caps... And just below I will give a knitting pattern for all berets.

GENERAL KNITTING SCHEME

for any caps.

Such hats-caps can be knitted in a simple pattern WITHOUT a PATTERN ... or in a RELIEF or OPENWORK pattern. Choose any pattern with knitting needles on some site ... and go.

Step 1 - START KNITTING

First and we knit an elastic band (in 12-15 rows) and further ( without adding loops on the needles) we knit the already patterned fabric of the cap. We get a model similar to photo of the purple cap above.

Or after tying the elastic we can add loops on the needles... and our canvas will begin to expand ... and we will get a model of a fluffy hat (like on the pink model from the photo above ).

An important rule of thumb for adding loops.

When adding loops when knitting a hat with a pattern only one thing is important - the total number of loops on the knitting needles must be DIVIDED BY the pattern REPORT (by the number of loops that are repeated in the pattern-pattern) ...

For example, the report (repeat) of our pattern is equal to 8 loops ... which means that the total number of loops on the needles should be divisible by 8 ... For example, there should be 160 ... or 168 ... or 176 loops ... (edge-edge loops do not count).

Step 2 - BASIC KNITTING.

Further, when the loops are added we begin to knit the pattern ... repeating the reports ...
We drive the patterned canvas to rows of 40, if you want the usual size of the hat ... (here it also depends on the thickness of the threads) Trying on the head ... in the process of knitting you will understand for yourself when it is enough to drive in a straight line and it is time to narrow the fabric at the crown. (You can run such a patterned cloth longer, so that the cap is taller ... or finish earlier, so that the cap flows around the head, and does not stick out or hang down - everything is up to your taste)

Step 3 - FINISHING THE HAT KNITTING .

Then when our hat approaching the back of the head(or to the length you intended) ... we begin to close the loops 4 each (or 6 ... or 8 each) in each row - the more you close the stitches in a row, the faster your knitting will end. Since knitting is considered complete when 16-20 loops remain on the needles

An important rule of thumb is to REDUCE loops.

We know that the number of loops on the needles becomes smaller if knit two loops together (as one) ... But in order for the decrease in loops to be UNIFORMAL - you need to do this decrease in any places ... and in certain sectors of the cap ... (so that these decreasing places are at the same distance from each other). That is, we divide the entire circumference of the cap into sectors (as with a knife we ​​divide a round cake into equal pieces) ... usually an even number of sectors can be 6 ... or 8 or 10 ...

If you have a hat with a pattern(in which some drawing-report is repeated) - then the drawing itself can be a sector ... Then we do the reduction in a certain (of your choice) place of the pattern- and so in each repetition of the pattern we knit two loops together as one.

This is how it looks in the process. sectorial reduction of loops when knitting any hat or beret ... (it doesn't matter if you knit it on two knitting needles or on circular knitting needles).

For example- we have 160 loops on the needles - and we have reached the top of our hat and we need to make a decrease. We decide to make the decrease evenly in 10 places of each row ... So we need to divide our cap into 10 sectors.

Then we divide 160 by 10, we get the number 16 ... (that is, mentally divide the hat into sectors - 16 loops in each sector). And that means further we ...

In our first decreasing row we will knit at the end of each 16-loop two loops together(that is, we hook each 15th and 16th together and knit as one) ...

In the second decreasing row there are one fewer loops left in the sector (and we will already hook each 14th + 15th loops in a row together)….

In the third decreasing row- in each sector there are even fewer loops (and we will knit together every 13th and 14th loop).

That's it - now you can complete the knitting.

We collect these remaining loops on a thread... we pull the thread, collecting all the loops into a bundle and tie it on a knot (we hide the ends of the knot inside). Close the back seam of our hat... and you're done.

LITTLE coarse knit hat ...

If you knit a cap-cap on thick knitting needles and thick threads ... then it is better to make it LITTLE - ON THE HEAD ... and wear it slightly throwing it back (that is, not pushing it over the forehead).

The principle of knitting is as follows small LOW hat- exactly the same as that of a high cap-cap ... It's just that the FRONT PART of the knitted fabric will not be so long ... that is, we pass early to the MACUSHINE PART with its loop-decreasing rows.

Knitted hats - WITH EARS.

HAT WITH EARS No. 1 (dark gray in the photo below) You can knit the ears separately and then sew them to the desired place of the already finished knitted hat.

HAT WITH EARS No. 2 (light gray in the photo above) - we knit a hat in the form of a pipe - without decreasing the loops at the top of the head, and then just close the loops and Sew the front and back of the cap together in a straight line. T o have the top of the pipe flattened (and sewn this flattened edge)

And then the corners of this straight seam we turn into ears. To do this, we make a seam with threads. DIAGONALLY cutting off this corner. We make a seam with a thread, pierce through both layers (front and rear) and not with a needle, but with an ordinary crochet hook we thread the thread back and forth. Thus, our corner will not be pulled over the head like the whole hat, but stick out like a separate ear. And from the other corner of our flattened and stitched pipe of the cap, we make out the same eyelet, in the same way.

Or such ears can be conceived on a knitted hat with braids - with a lush embossed pattern. It is easy to do it yourself.

Knitted HATS with knitting needles - WITH BRAIDS.

LARGE RELIEF KNITTING "BRAID" looks very beautiful on women's hats

And braids can be placed vertically(as on the ash pink hat from the photo below).

Or you can make the longitudinal knitting of the cap - not from the forehead to the crown, but along the lateral line (along the circumference of the head) - and then our braids will be be positioned horizontally left to right - like on the gray hat with the photo below.

KNITTED HATS -

WITH BREAKERS and BANDS.

Fashionable hats with brim- reminiscent of graceful hats - so feminine, ideal under an elegant coat with flirty gloves ... Under loose curly hair

Sometimes the fields are knitted SEPARATELY and then sewn to the edge of the finished hat ...

Sometimes, in order to give such fields the necessary rigidity, special blank fields are cut out of felt ... and inserted inside the fields folded in half (like a bookmark in a booklet). This is exactly what is done on the knitted hat with the photo below.


Try to make the same (as in the photo above) fields on your hat - it's easy to do it yourself ...

Step 1 (preparatory)

First knit a hat ... Then cut out of felt a shape resembling a donut (pancake with a hole)... the inner edge of the donut hole should be the same size as the circumference of your head and the edge of your hat.

Step 2 (knitting )

Then on the needles we will knit DIRECT (rectangular fabric patterned elastic).

To do this, we collect so many loops ... so that the future canvas is equal to the length of the OUTER circumference of a felt donut (you can measure it with a centimeter or a school formula) ...

The length of the cloth should be twice as wide as the thickness of the donut - in order to wrap the donut with it from the bottom and from the top (since the knitted fields at the hat go both above and below) ... That is, we knit the cloth and from time to time we try it on to the width of the cut donut - we wrap the donut barrel from the lower and upper sides and see how many more rows are missing ... we knit to the desired length.

Step 3 (stapling )
When the canvas is tied (that is, it has reached a sufficient width for wrapping and sewing a "blank donut" into it) - we are on our canvas close the loops ... remove it from the knitting needle.

We wrap our felt bagel with a knitted fabric ... so so that the fold of the canvas is on the OUTSIDE edge a donut ... and the connecting seam of the double cloth went along the inner edge of the donut of the fields was ... (that is, we immediately wrapped and sew the halves of our cloth along the inner edge of the donut)

And then along the edge of the same seam n We sew our ready-made fields to the finished hat. And that's all. You can now crochet a beautiful lush flower and sew it on the side of your hat.

Another way to make the fields on a knitted hat.

And in the fashionable model of a light beige hat (with the photo below) - the fields are formed by themselves when bending to the FLOOR knitted classic elastic (one front, one purl). it's easy to do it yourself.

That is, we knit an elastic band for a hat twice as long what fields should be ... and then bend it in half. We slightly stretch the bend with our hands in breadth so that it protrudes with a visor.

Sometimes a fishing line is inserted into such a bulging bend of the elastic band.- this is done so that the edges of the fields do not wrinkle from toes, but always remain even and elastic.

Sometimes a corset tape is put inside the bend - for rigidity(the tape with which the trousers are hemmed at the bottom) - and with sewing threads (tone on tone) neatly and imperceptibly sewn through stitches through the edge of the fields.

And here is a hat with WIDE lapels-brim .

Here the lapel is knitted in the shape of a bell ... which has two sides (the inner one is light and the outer one is dark). Now we will make it with our own hands.

Such a hat need to knit starting from the back of the head... that is, from top to bottom (since it will be convenient to regulate the span of the fields ... and if something happens, it will be convenient to dissolve them and knit again ....

A simple knitting pattern for this WIDE TWO-COLOR BANDED HAT ...

  1. Knitting of this black hat with white brims - we start from the top ... just knit a straight fabric (or a straight pipe, if on circular knitting needles) ... The fabric of this pipe should be long enough to cover the head from crown to forehead.
  2. We turn to white threads - and expanding dramatically canvas from the edge of the forehead (adding loops in each row). A shape similar to a bell is formed (we reach the very edge of the fields - trying on in front of the mirror to decide whether this width of fields is enough for us). We tied the white side of the fields (the one that is visible in the photo).
  3. We change the threads to black and we already knit the TIGHTENING in the opposite direction (reducing the same number of loops in each row as we added before). ... this will be the reverse side of the flap of the fields (dark) which is not visible, hidden-turned away in the photo.
  4. It turns out a construction in the form of ... first a narrow black pipe .... then the expanding white part ... and then the tapering black part.
  5. At the widest point of the canvas(where white turns into black again) we fold the canvas in half (we folded the fields of the cap in half ... And we sew this addition, fasten it with threads - we fix this double sandwich of the fields.
  6. And then there is only sew the upper crown seam of the cap - fold it with an envelope as seen in the photo and fasten it with threads ... and (if we did not knit on circular knitting needles) we make the back seam of the cap.

Note - if you knit such a hat from thick dense threads, then the fields can not be made DUAL - they will turn out to be dense and erect without it .

(If suddenly it is incomprehensible to explain - write in the comments, I will explain in more detail and even draw ... and maybe even calculate the number of rows and loops in a row).

Knitted hat with crochet brim.

And here is a MULTI-COLORED hat, which is tied with a HOOK. Crochet fields are generally easy to crochet. There is no need to be smart here - just drive the columns in a circle, sharply adding their number in the fields.

And then, at the very edge of the fields (in the last rows), you need to slightly reduce the number of columns so that the hat itself asks for a neat upward bend.

KNITTED HATS -

WITH SOFT CREWS.

Knitted cap margins can be soft and easy to TURN TO THE HAT... then we have an elegant lapel on the knitted cap.

Here in the photo below we see an example of how the SINGLE-SIDED SIDE flap is made.
How exactly it was made, I think, is clear to everyone.

First knits top crown of a hat... And then we knit the flap itself as a separate long blade on the needles (similar to a scarf). There is only one pattern - we knit all the time from the front and from the seamy side one front loops... we get a ribbed pattern (it is thanks to this ribbing of the pattern that our fields keep their shape well).

Buttonholes are optional- we simply overlap the edges of the canvas ... and sew on buttons for decorative purposes.

And here is the front lapel ... The hat is knitted on two knitting needles (without an elastic band) so that the fabric itself wraps itself up with a beautiful knuckle up. The pattern looks like RICE ...

And here is the lapel, which is uniform around the entire circumference of the cap. It is decorated with a neat flower.

Hat with cuffs is made of soft angora.

And here is another fashionable hat - in it we see a non-standard circular knitting - and the direction of the knitted fabric goes across - this made it possible to come up with such beautiful lapel fields.

Here the knitting direction is HORIZONTAL (and apparently trapezoidal)... which is then sewn into a hat (if suddenly something superfluous is connected) you can always correct it with scissors (roughly) and close the cut with threads.

To be sure, we can first do a test mock-up of a hat from a piece of an old sheet(to guess its shape) ... then knit the canvas according to the shape of the layout ... and fold such a hat.

Better yet ..... knit such a hat ON A SIZE BIGGER ... and therefore REDUCE-DUMP it (like a felt boot) in hot water (40 degrees) in a washing machine ... The knitting will immediately become strongly compacted - the hat will become denser and one size smaller.

I will tell you more about the FALLING RULES right now using the example of the next two hats.

KNITTED HATS WITH LEFT - dried.

See what trendy sun-dried hats you can knit ... and felted in the washing machine.

They knit first larger than necessary. Then they are washed in hot water and the wool shrinks decreases by 30% and the hat becomes plump and warm like a soft felt fabric.

I will say in advance that both gray and pink hats are knitted according to the same instructions - this is the same model, just the manual drapery of the fields (with the help of hat pins) is slightly different for them.

A detailed description of the knocked over hats from the photo above.

(gray and red hat).

Material and product characteristics.

200 g of yarn Wash + Filz-it! Fine

(100% wool, 50 g \ 100 meters No. 00120

circular needles No. 5, stocking needles No. 5
Buckle + pin, brooch, buttons (for finishing hat brims).

Product size before felting: head circumference 70 cm, height 26.5 cm.

Product size after felting: head circumference 54, height 20 cm.

Before starting work- you should knit a sample from the purchased yarn - mark a 10 by 10 cm square on it with a bright thread. Then dump this sample in the washing machine and check how it decreases.

According to the declared yarn- the density of knitting before and after felting must match the following:

Density of knitting before felting: 10 x 10 cm = 16 stitches and 22 rows

Density of knitting after felting: 10 x 10 cm = 20 stitches 29 rows

And if your data is different (and this may be due to a different yarn, too tight knitting, or vice versa, your habit of knitting loosely and sweepingly), then you need to dial the number of loops on the knitting needles a little different. In accordance with how your prototype differs from the one presented above.

In order not to peer into the small print and encrypted abbreviations, I decided to paint step by step and along the ranks the whole process of knitting and the assembly of the cap.

STEP 1 - Knit the main part of the brim.

We start knitting from the fields - that is, we collect 124 loops on the circular knitting needles and knit circular rows with the front stitch. 20 rows in a circle. And we get the direct part of the fields (gray shading on the pattern of the fields). And we will only have to connect that part of the fields, which will be an elongated triangular shape on the pattern from the diagram below.


STEP 2 - start changing the shape of the fields

(narrow on one side and wide on the other).

At a height of 9 cm (= after 20 circular rows) we knit short rows- every second row we will decrease by 10 loops. This is necessary so that our fields turn out to be different in level - on the one hand, our field will turn out to be wider (there will be more rows), and on the other hand, our hat field will be narrow (in the place where we reduced every second row by 10 loops). Now you will learn how to do this and understand how it will look.

I decided paint each row which you knit - so that you can knit without bothering your brain by strictly repeating the steps described below.

So, at a height of 9 cm (after 20 circular rows) we knit short rows as follows.

We have on the needles the front side of 124 loops. We start to knit 21st circular row but we do not knit this row until the end, but to the last 10 stitches of the row(that is, we do not knit all 124 loops that are on the knitting needles, but only 114 front loops) , after which we stop and we need to turn the work backwards (so that the seamy side of knitting is already looking at us) and we can knit in the opposite side of the circle.

And in this opposite direction we do 1 yarn over right needle and knit the 22nd rowthe same 114 loops, reduced in number, but with the purl stitch... We tied this amount to the end and unfold our knitting to the front side again to knit the next 23rd row. This is what it looks like in the drawing (I hope I drew it clearly).

On this front side and knit 23rd front row- but we also knit not all 114 loops - and again we turn the knitting before reaching 10 loops to the end. That is, in the 23rd row, we must knit 104 face loops... And turn to the seamy side - to knit on it 24th row - purl 104 (in front of each purl row, do not forget to make 1 yarn over the right knitting needle). And we turn around again to the front side.

25th row we also do not knit 10 loops to the end - but we stop at knitted Knit 94- and turn to the seamy side. Where we knit already 26 row - purl 94 loops. And we turn again to the front side.

This 27th row we also do not knit up to 10 purl loops - that is, we only knit 84 front loops. Turn knitting to the wrong side and knit Purl 28 - 84 sts. And again we turn to the front side.

This 29th row we still reduce by 10 loops - that is, we only knit 74 face loops, and unfold knitting to the reverse seamy side, and knit 30 row - 74 purl loops. We return to the front.

This 31 row- we again reduce by 10 loops - that is, we only knit 64 face loops... Turn inside out - we knit 32 row - 64 purl loops... We return to the front side.

This 33 row 54 face loops 34th row - purl 54. Expand to the front side.

This 35 row- we again reduce the knitting by 10 loops - we only knit 44 face loops... Turn inside out and knit Row 36 - Purl 44. We return to the front side.

This 37 row- we again reduce the knitting by 10 loops - we only knit 34 face loops... Turn inside out and knit Row 38 - Purl 34. We turn to the front side.

This Row 39- for the last time we reduce the stitching by 10 loops - we only knit 24 face loops... Turn inside out and knit 40th row - 24 purl loops. And after that we unroll the knitting with the right side facing us for the last time. This was the last short row. We returned to the front side.

And we can continue now our regular circular knitting- together with all 124 stitches in a row.

STEP 3 - knit the main dome of the cap.

So, we have 124 loops on the needles, the already connected fields hang from the needles (on one side of the circle, the fields are wider 40 rows high, on the other, narrower 21 rows high.). Now we will knit the hat itself - the part that is pulled over the head.

The first thing we need to do is to tighten the transition from the brim to the dome of the hat. To do this, we knit each loop together with a yarn.

One way to close the buttonhole is with a crochet hook.

So, we closed 12 loops - which means that we have 112 loops left on the knitting needles. Of these, we will knit the dome of the cap.

We translate these loops from circular knitting needles. 4 stocking needles- 28 loops on each of the four knitting needles. And we knit in a circle, 30 front rows up. (Our knit rises another 13.5 cm (excluding margins).

Now we stopped and marked every 14th loop on our knitting (you can thread red ribbons between every 14th loop). We will need these marks (there will be 8 of them) in order to properly reduce the cap (narrow the dome).

We marked and in the next circular row we knit each 14th loop together with the previous one (that is, we knit 13 and 14 together). As a result, we have 104 loops left on the needles.

Next, we knit like this.
In every 4th row - repeat the decrease(we knit a loop marked with a ribbon together with the previous loop). We do this 3 times... (That is, 3 rows are simple, 4 are subtracted - 3 rows are simple, 4 are subtracted, and 3 more rows are simply 4 subtracted - three such runs). As a result, we have left on the needles 80 loops.

Now we subtract more.

In every 2nd row, we make the same decrease (in the same places marked with a red ribbon). We repeat 6 times. That is, we alternate 12 rows, just one + one decreasing one. As a result, we have left on the needles 32 loops.

And now we come to the end of knitting.

Three rows we make a decrease in a row - in each row. In the same places marked with a ribbon. And on the needles we have 8 loops left.

We finish knitting: cut the thread, stretch the tail of the thread through these last 8 loops. and tighten it tight. We fasten the end of the thread in the body of the hat (using a crochet hook).

STEP 4 - roll the hat

in the washing machine

+ we form its final form.

And here is a detailed description of how such hats knitted of wool can be FILLED IN A WASHING MACHINE ...

  1. Place the header in a washing bag.
  2. We fall asleep in the washing machine powder for washing colored laundry... DO NOT add softener or detergent for woollens.
  3. We choose mode - delicate wash(it is with a large flow of water - this is what we need). The mode for washing wool is NOT NECESSARY.
  4. Setting the temperature 40 degrees.
  5. Best of all together with a hat in a typewriter shove something rude(like jesses or towels) - to create extra friction.
  6. We start washing - as a result of which the product will decrease by 1 \ 3 (that is, by 30%) After that, we take it out - wring it out and WET-STRETCH wet it to fit the size of our head ... (so that she remembers this shape) ...
  7. and then we put on the MOLD where it will dry. It is, of course, clear that you do not have hat blanks in your household - n oh can you find a substitute for it- for example, a child's ball of a suitable size or a three-liter jar (to increase the size of the jar, you can wrap it with several layers of newspaper, fix it with tape and put on a bag for cleanliness) - put on a hat and leave it until it dries completely.
  8. After you have pulled the hat onto the disc, you must level its brim - pull the brim so that on one side they are 9 cm, and on the other 15 cm.
  9. AND WHILE THE CAP IS DRYED, we do its styling. ...

Here is a photograph to help you. We approach the mirror and try to lay the fields as shown in the photo. The instructions say this:

Styling for a gray hat: Align the margins (9 cm and 15 cm). Tuck the brim up (both short and long sides. Take the edge of the short, rolled up brim and turn it half down. Pin this place with a hat pin (buckle + stick).

In the past few years, knitted hats have taken their place of honor in the world of winter fashion. Now this headpiece not only protects from frost, but also represents a real work of art. There are a great many styles of hats, but you will never find two absolutely identical models if knitting is done by hand by a craftswoman.

Experienced craftswomen believe that you need to knit hats from the most expensive and high-quality yarn, since you cannot save on health.

Knitting a beret

If you do not know for sure with knitting needles for beginners, then knitting a beret will lead you out of the dead end. It is quite simple to make it. The only thing to consider is that you need to knit a beret several sizes smaller, since it will stretch a lot during the process of wearing.

First, calculate the number of loops you need to cast on the knitting needles. It depends on the size of the future beret. To do this, you need to measure the circumference of the head, then subtract two centimeters from the obtained value. Next, the radius of the circle is calculated: the circumference is divided by a constant number of 6.28.

Now the obtained values ​​in centimeters need to be converted into loops. Knitting a hat requires skill and increased attention, so information on how to knit a hat with knitting needles will be very useful for beginners.

It is most convenient to start knitting on two knitting needles, moving in a circle as you work. On the first knitting needle, loops are typed, calculated taking into account the size of the head. Next, an elastic band is knitted with a length of about three centimeters. Then the total number of rows must be divided into two equal parts. You should also calculate in advance the number of loops for an increase during knitting of the first part of the product. Try to do this operation as carefully and accurately as possible, otherwise holes may appear.

The second third of the beret is knitted without additions or subtractions, but the third part requires special attention, it is the most difficult to make it. After reading the article on how to knit a hat with knitting needles for beginners, you can easily figure out this issue. First, divide all the knitting you made earlier into six equal parts. Let's say you have 60 loops, dividing them into 6 parts, it turns out that one part is 10. We knit together the first and second loops, the tenth and eleventh, and so on with an interval of ten loops. You, of course, calculate your interval individually. Having finished the first row of the third part, in the second you will find yourself on the wrong side, it is knitted without reducing the loops. In the third row, you need to knit together the loop obtained from the next one.

As soon as exactly half of the initial number of loops is reduced, begin to double the number of knitted loops. Due to this reduction, the top of the beret will be flat and neat. Finally, join the seam in the middle of the hat.

Difficulties arising when knitting

Even if you have read about how to knit a hat with knitting needles for beginners, it will be difficult to do it the first time, but with time and practice, experience will come, and you will be able to create wonderful hats. And if there is a desire, then even earn money on their labor. You can start by knitting male models, and then learn about how to knit a double hat with knitting needles.

Knitted hats have always been and will remain an object of admiration for those around them. Along with the experience, your imagination will expand, and you yourself will be able to tell your friends about how to knit a woman's hat with knitting needles. Therefore, even if you have never picked up knitting needles after reading our article, try repeating the knitting steps and make a wonderful beret or hat. And remember, you will succeed!

How to knit a baby hat yourself?

To knit a baby hat, you need 100-150 grams of yarn and knitting needles. It is knitted with the simplest viscous - an elastic band. It is necessary to measure the girth of the head and the depth of the future hat. Then dial the required number of loops, relying on the resulting size of the head circumference, and start knitting (2 front loops, 1 purl loop). In this way, you need to knit about 45 cm and sew a seam at the top and back. Due to this length, you can knit a hat with ears with knitting needles, while it will turn out to be of an original rectangular shape. The ears can be decorated with anything you want.

The second way to knit a baby hat

There is another way that will be useful to everyone who wants to know how to knit a baby hat with knitting needles. First, you need to dial about 90 loops and knit with an elastic band, then, having knitted 25-30 cm, begin to decrease the loops, therefore, you get the bottom of the hat. The decrease is done in the front row, for this, 2 loops are knitted together every six loops, in subsequent rows after five, four, and so on. When the number of loops decreases to 17, they need to be collected on a thread and tightened. Then the hat needs to be sewn. You can also decorate the finished product to your liking. If you want to knit, you can attach special strings to it that will securely hold it on the baby's head.

It is very important that a newborn baby has a quality hat. Of course, you can buy it at any children's store, but some mothers prefer to knit a hat for a newborn with knitting needles on their own. It is very easy to do this, plus in this way you can show all your love and care for your long-awaited child.

The hat should be knitted from soft threads, because the delicate skin of a newborn is especially susceptible to all kinds of allergic reactions. For knitting you will need knitting needles, a crochet hook made of thread and about 100 g of yarn.

First, you need to dial 74 loops on the knitting needles, then knit with a 1x1 elastic band for about 6-8 rows. When finished knitting with an elastic band, knit the next row with purl loops and insert ruffles. Then you should knit 22 rows with front loops and distribute the loops on special stocking needles.

The first rows in a circle need to be knitted with purl loops, since there will also be ruffles here. Next, start decreasing the loops. When decreasing, knit every seventh and sixth stitch together, then every fifth and sixth, and so on. The decrease must be repeated through the row until there are 10 loops on the needles.

The remaining loops must be pulled together and secured to the outside of the headgear.

Then, along the edge of the canvas, you should dial new loops, which are knitted with a 1x1 elastic band for about three centimeters. On the first side of this elastic, you must remember to leave a loop for the button.

To do this, at the end of the row, you need to close 2 or 3 loops, while in the next dial them again. It is better to make a button also from threads, in order to avoid chafing the baby's neck.

To knit a button, you need a crochet hook, on which you need to dial 3 air loops and close them in a circle. So, in a circle you need to knit about eight rows and pull off the finished button with a thread.

If you do not want to make a button, you can knit special small strings for this. To do this, you need to crochet a chain of air loops and knit a row without a crochet with columns. Without breaking the thread, tie the edge of the cap with a special crustacean step.

Hat with ears

Hats with earflaps have become not only a fashionable element of a winter wardrobe, but also an excellent protection against severe frosts and winds. Even a novice needlewoman can figure out how to knit a women's hat with knitting needles of a similar model.

First, you need to take measurements for the future headdress. We recommend using thick circular needles and appropriate yarn. Wanting to make such a model, many needlewomen will learn how to knit a double hat with knitting needles to make it even more voluminous and unusual.

It is better to write down the obtained measurements and knitting density in a notebook so as not to get confused in the future in the process of making the headdress. For example, you knit a 10x10 square fabric using number 6 knitting needles with 2-fold yarn. The density of such a square is fifteen loops by twenty rows. With this pattern, you can easily understand how many loops are needed to knit a hat rim.

Thinking about how to knit a hat with earflaps with knitting needles, keep in mind that it is made from the bottom up. You should start with cords that will serve as strings.

First, cast on the stitches on the knitting needles. Their number depends on the width of the tie, for example, five loops. Move the open loops to the opposite end of the knitting needle and drag the thread there. Knit all with knit stitches and move them again to the other end of the knitting needles.

Repeat the above steps until you get the cord of the desired length. In the process of knitting, gently stretch the knitted strip, achieving an even distribution of its elements.

Now you can start knitting the ears of the product. To do this, in each even row, you need to make an even addition on both sides of the fabric and continue knitting with hosiery.

At the beginning of this row, yarn over and extend the knit seven times before 2 sts. The same must be done at the end of the row, that is, on the other side of the canvas, when there are two unconnected loops there. As a result, there should be 19 loops on the needles.

After finishing the ears, tackle the hem of the headdress. To do this, you need to dial the loops on the circular knitting needles. For our example, there will be 42 such loops. Distribute 80 loops on one knitting needle: an eyelet from an additional knitting needle, a second eyelet and 21 loops of the main product.

Knit the garment with a stocking knit in a circle. Thus, you need to knit about 11-12 cm, depending on Then proceed to the formation of the top of the cap with earflaps.

Start taking the loops out of work. Decrease each even circle 8 times. In the front and back of the product, in the middle, remove 4 times along the loop, make the same decrease above the ears. When a ring of the removed loops remains on the knitting needles, pull a thread of yarn through them and pull off the top of the finished hat.

Knitted hat with pompoms

How to knit? This model is relevant not only for children, but also for adults. This headpiece will complement any outfit due to its playfulness and ease.

To create such a product, you will need twisted yarn. The yarn with the addition of acrylic is well suited, it is stronger and does not "roll up", which is very important. Especially if you want to knit a hat for a boy.

First, you need to tie a sample to determine the density of the knit. Next, take a measurement of the head circumference, and from this size calculate the number of loops required for knitting. The total number of loops must be a multiple of eight. Add 2 more edge loops to the resulting amount.

Consider an example of how to knit a hat with knitting needles with a pompom, if you get 82 loops. Type them on the needles and knit with a stocking stitch about 10 centimeters. Next, go on the right side to a regular knit.

Knit the canvas with a basic stitch of 12 centimeters, then begin to subtract. The first decrease is done in each rapport of the knitting pattern. To do this, knit three front loops in the front row, together 2 purl loops, 1 remove and again two loops together with the purl.

Then knit 2 centimeters without adding or subtracting anything. The second decrease is also done in each rapport, but now in the purl row you need to knit together three front loops with the purl.

Before the third decrease, also knit two centimeters of the canvas according to the pattern. Third decrease: knit two facial, the third from the purl for the back walls of one front.

When there are about or exactly 10 loops on the needles, pull the last one through all the loops and fasten the thread. Next, sew a hat, the edge can be turned off.

Now you need to make pom-poms for the finished product. You can make one large pom-pom in the middle of the hat, or several small ones.

To make a pom-pom, you need to cut 2 circles from cardboard with a hole in the middle. Then wind the yarn tightly in a circle. The splendor of the pompom will depend on how many threads you wind. Therefore, wind as much as needed for your pompom.

After winding the yarn, cut along the edge of the template. Next, you need to carefully push the cardboard blank and tie the threads well. After removing the template, fluff up the pompom and trim the ends with scissors. Now all that remains is to sew it onto the finished product.

How to knit a hat with an elastic band yourself?

A hat tied with an elastic band should fit snugly to the head, that is, be exactly your size. It should also be borne in mind that a dense elastic band tends to stretch quietly during wear (especially at first). To knit this headdress you need knitting needles and any yarn of your choice.

Now let's take a closer look at how to knit a fashionable hat with knitting needles using an English elastic band. First you need to take a measurement of the head circumference.

Next, you need to link the sample. To do this, dial twenty loops on the knitting needles and knit several rows. Alternating front and back stitches, form a canvas pattern. Further, in the course of work, the loops need to be knitted as they look at you.

After you have knitted 20 rows of pattern fabric, you can determine the knitting density and the number of stitches needed to create your beanie.

Now cast on the knitting needles the required number of loops. The first row is knitted with front and back stitches alternately. The second row is knitted the way the loops look at you. But the following rows have some peculiarities. When knitting the knit stitch, place the knitting needle in the nearby bottom stitch, not in the row you are knitting. Do not stretch the loops. Your task is to achieve the maximum density of the canvas, since during the work you will see that it turns out to be a little loose.

If you want your product to have a lapel, knit 6-8 cm of linen and continue knitting a hat. Moving about 10 cm away from the lapel, start decreasing the loops.

The decrease should be done evenly until there are three loops on the needles. Then the product must be secured and sewn with a knitted stitch.

To make the hat shrink the way you want, dampen it with water and let it dry. You can decorate this hat with a pom-pom, this will give it even more relevance.

Hat with lapel

For several seasons in a row, a hat with a lapel has been an integral part of the winter wardrobe of many fashionistas. This product is available in stores, but you can knit yourself. When starting knitting, remember that a hat of this style should be exactly in size, and also keep in mind that it can stretch during the process of wearing.

First, measure the circumference of your head. Next, it is recommended to knit the sample by typing 20 loops and knitting a little cloth.

Then you need to form a sample in 20 rows, knitting alternately the front and back loops. Then you need to determine the number of loops in 1 cm of knitting and based on this, knowing the circumference of the head, you will calculate the required number of loops.

Having typed the loops, you can start knitting a hat.

The first row is knitted with front and back stitches alternately. The loops in the second row fit the way they look at you, but in the remaining rows they fit in a different pattern. So, when knitting the front loop, the knitting needle is inserted into the lower loop.

In order to form the lapel of the product, you need to knit about 7 cm of fabric, then continue knitting the main part of the hat. Moving 10 cm away from the lapel, that is, 17-20 cm from the base of the hat, you should start decreasing the loops to form the bottom of the hat.

The reduction of the loops is done evenly on both sides of the canvas and continues until 3 loops remain on the needles. The remaining loops need to be fastened and the seams of the cap sewn. After finishing knitting, you should moisten the hat with water and let it dry. This will give the new item the required size.

In order for the hat to be exactly in size, it is necessary to take a measurement of the girth of the head. Tie a pattern about 10 cm wide. Then count the number of loops per centimeter of knitting. Now you need to multiply the resulting measurement of the head circumference in centimeters by the received number of loops. This will tell you the number of stitches you need to knit.

Knitted hat with braids

You can knit a hat with braids with an additional preliminary calculation. It is recommended to knit sufficiently thick visible braids with a volume of 10 loops. Next, divide the resulting number of loops by 13 and add two edging. If the calculation does not converge, you can add a couple more loops, this will not spoil the product.

It is better to knit the first few rows with an elastic band, this will give the hat a density and will not allow it to stretch too much during wear. Having knitted 4-5 cm, you can start knitting the cap with braids. Such a model can be knitted on circular needles, but in this article we will show you how to knit it with a back seam.

We begin to knit a braid: the first, then three purl loops, 10 front loops and purl again. After knitting 10 rows, you need to make a cross to get braids. To do this, remove the first 5 knitting loops and place them on an additional knitting needle. Next, we knit five front loops and five removed. We knit the purl without any changes.

You can leave the removed loops at work, then the crossed loops will be directed in the other direction. It is only important to initially choose which direction you want the loops to cross to ensure a beautiful pattern. After completing the cross, we continue to knit the hat according to the pattern. To finish the piece closer to the top, you need to start decreasing the loops. So that the hat with braids does not lose its shape, you should start decreasing from the purl loops. To do this, we knit two purl loops together in each segment. Then we begin to decrease in braids, one loop on each side. We continue this process until 10-15 loops remain on the needles. Now you can pull them off and sew a hat.

A hat with a braid can be very decorated with a pom-pom, which is not so difficult to make with your own hands. You can also turn on imagination and decorate the braids themselves with rhinestones, sequins or buttons. In any case, your knitted hat will turn out to be the most beautiful and fashionable.

Tell

Knitted items are the main attribute in winter fashion, which is present in the wardrobe of almost every person. It is simply impossible to imagine yourself in our severe frosts without warm knitted mittens, scarves and hats.

Today, many fashion houses around the world include bright and unusual garments knitted from various yarns in their fashion collections. Knitted products have looked especially relevant in recent years. One of the most important and interesting knitted products is a hat, which even a novice needlewoman can knit. With the help of such an attribute of clothing, you can easily transform your image and feel warm even in the conditions of our harsh winters.

In this article, we will take a closer look at how to properly prepare before knitting hats, and also analyze the basic patterns for knitting hats with knitting needles for beginners. Here are examples of detailed patterns for knitting hats with knitting needles for beginner needlewomen.

Knitting hats for beginners: preparatory work

Knitting hats is not a complicated process at all. If you are a beginner needlewoman, then, of course, it is best to start with the simplest patterns and patterns. So you will be sure of the end result and at the same time gain experience in knitting hats with knitting needles. A huge plus in knitting a headdress with knitting needles is the ability to choose the best option for yourself, which is quite difficult to choose in a store or on the market. After all, on your own you can choose the color of the yarn that suits you and the pattern you like, as well as choose an individual knitting technique. Let's take a closer look at all the preparatory work for beginners.

The choice of materials for knitting hats

  • First of all, you need to go to the store with all kinds of knitting materials. It is here that you will purchase yarn for knitting hats.
  • All yarn is divided into several types, which determines the quality of the future product, and its wear. First of all, it is worth noting the homogeneous yarn. These are 100% wool, linen, cotton, bamboo and other yarns. The distinctive features of homogeneous yarns are naturalness and environmental friendliness, however, for example, pure woolen yarns can be tough and cause allergies. In this case, preference should be given to the most popular blended yarn. This type can be characterized as follows: fibers of acrylic, viscose and other synthetic materials are added to natural fabric. Knitted products made from such threads are very soft, they are perfectly worn and washed. The third group is synthetic yarns, which are 100% non-natural fibers.
  • All threads can be divided according to their thickness. For knitting hats, you should choose a thicker thread. In this situation, the question may arise, how to determine the thickness of the thread. It’s very simple. Typically, the packaging indicates the length of the thread is 100 grams. The shorter the length, the thicker the thread itself will be.
  • The color of the yarn is selected according to your preferences and the planned look. Choose the color of the future knitted hat for a winter coat or accessories (scarf, gloves, bag). Also remember, if you are planning to knit a hat with a relief pattern, then give preference to light threads. The pattern will be clearer on them.
  • The next step before making a knitted hat with knitting needles for beginners will be the choice of knitting tools, i.e. knitting needles.
  • For knitting hats, you can use different types of knitting needles. Perhaps for the first knitted hat it is worth taking the usual straight knitting needles with a tip. With the help of them, you can knit a knitted hat, which will have a seam on the back.
  • There are also hosiery needles. There are usually five of them in a set. They can be made of metal, bamboo, plastic, glass. Choose from your preferences, since all needlewomen only by trial determine the optimal knitting needle material for themselves. The stocking needles are sharp on both sides and are usually not very large.
  • Circular knitting needles are also used for knitting hats. These are two knitting needles that are connected with a fishing line, wire, silicone tube. In this case, the length of the fishing line or wire can be different, which is important to consider when knitting a hat in a circular manner. After all, it will simply not be convenient for you to place all the loops on the line if it turns out to be short. A hat on circular knitting needles for beginners is a fairly easy option, but you need to be careful.
  • The thickness of the needles must be selected twice as much as the thickness of the thread. If you are knitting very tightly, use a thicker knitting needle. Conversely, if it is very loose, then use thinner knitting needles.
  • You may also need a sequencing marker and a sewing needle for knitting.

Choice knitting patterns for beginners

Today there are a huge number of patterns for knitting hats with knitting needles. For this wardrobe item, it is possible to use both simple patterns and various volumetric and embossed patterns. However, more often than not, all hats begin with a regular 2 * 2 elastic band.

  • Elastic. The first rows of various models of hats are knitted with an elastic band. It can be different: 1 * 1, 2 * 2, 4 * 4. The most popular elastic is knit and purl. In this case, it is necessary to dial an even number of loops plus two edging to make an even edge. In the first row, it is necessary to knit an edge, two front, two purl, and so on until the end of the row, remove the last loop without knitting. In the next row, everything is knitted the same way. Make sure that over the front there are strictly front ones, and over the purl ones - the purl ones.

  • Garter knitting. This is a very simple pattern that you can easily complete without any schemes. Collect the required number of loops, remove the first loop on the right knitting needle, then knit all the loops with the front ones. The last loop must be knitted with a purl. The next rows need to be knitted in the same way.
  • Embossed patterns. These patterns include "pearl" and "honeycomb". In these patterns, there is an alternation of front and back loops. In the first row, you need to knit: one front, one purl, one front, one purl, and so on until the end of the row. In the next row, we change the order: we knit one purl, one front, one purl, one front and so on until the end of the row. The third row repeats the first.
  • Braids. There are a lot of braid patterns. They can be combined with other patterns to create unique knits. Here's an example of one braid pattern. To do this, you need to dial the number of loops a multiple of eight plus two edging. We knit 4 knit and 4 purl, in the next row 4 purl and 4 are knitted. Next, you need to remove 2 loops on an additional knitting needle, knit the next 2 loops with the front ones, and then two loops from the additional knitting needle. Then repeat the second row. This is a repeat of the braid pattern.

The combination of various patterns will allow you to create interesting and unusual patterns of knitted hats.

Taking measurements from the head for knitting a hat with knitting needles

Before you start knitting a hat with knitting needles, you need to take measurements from your head or the person to whom you decided to knit a hat.

  • First of all, measure the volume of your head with a centimeter. It is usually marked by its largest girth. Focus on what you want to get in the end and how you will wear the future knitted hat.
  • Next, you need to determine the height of your hat. To do this, you need to attach a centimeter to the bridge of the nose and mark the length that ends at the crown. Add 3 cm to the result obtained. However, there are models of hats, in which the height can be much higher. For example, beanie hats.
  • There are approximate parameters for a specific age. which will allow you to knit a hat as a gift to your relatives and friends.
  • After determining all the sizes you need, you need to determine the knitting density, from which you can calculate the number of loops required for knitting. To do this, cast on 10 loops and knit 10 rows. Measure the resulting sample with a ruler and, based on the circumference of your head, calculate the number of loops.

Choosing a knitting technique for beginners

The technique of knitting hats with knitting needles depends on the specific model you choose. There are several techniques that are used to make handmade hats:

  • Knitting hats from the top of the head. In this case, you first of all form the crown, and then gradually increase the number of loops, forming a hat.
  • Knitting hats on straight knitting needles with a straight cloth. A similar hat on the back will certainly have a seam that can be decorated in an unusual way: use buttons, tie a pigtail.
  • Knitting hats using patterns. This technique is most often used for making complex hats.
  • Knitting of hats with circular or stocking needles. In this case, the hat is knitted with one fabric and without a seam.

  • In knitting of this hat model, a simple elastic band and a "Polish elastic band" pattern are used. To perform the "Polish gum" you will need to knit the following pattern: cast an odd number of loops; 1st row - 1 edge, 2 front, 2 purl; 2nd row - 1 edge, 2 front, 2 purl. Due to the odd number of loops, the pattern will shift.
  • At the very beginning of knitting, you need to cast on 90 loops on the needles 2.5 (the average number of loops for an adult's head).
  • Knit a simple elastic 2 * 2 with knit 2 and purl 2. repeat this pattern by about 6 cm.
  • Next, choose whether you want a voluminous hat or a tight one. If tight-fitting, then in the next row after the elastic, you need to add one additional loop to get an odd number of loops for the pattern. To obtain a volumetric cap in this row, it is necessary to add additional loops in each 5th loop of the row.
  • After that, knit the "Polish gum", the scheme of which we described above. This pattern must be done for a tight-fitting hat by about 10 cm, and for a more voluminous one - 14-16 cm.
  • Decrease the loops: 1st row - do the decrease in every 3 loop; knit the second row according to the pattern; 3rd row - decrease in every 2 loop; 4th row - according to the picture; 5th row - knit 2 loops together with the front entire row; 6th row - knit all loops with purl.

We knit as follows: purl 2, knit 3, transfer to an additional knitting needle, knit the next 3 knitting needles, then return the removed 3 loops to the knitting needle and knit them. Then 2 purl, 2 facial and 2 purl and braid again. So repeat until the end of the row.
  • We repeat the next six rows, as in the previous ones.
  • Next, you need to make reductions, which you need to start after about 10-14 cm of the knitted product. Decreases are made through the row. First, 1/3 of all the loops are knitted together, then 1/2, after which all the loops are knitted in two together with the front ones.

Knitting a hat with knitting needles: what do you need?

Before starting to work on knitting a woman's hat, you need to prepare the "props" that you will need. These include:

  • yarn;
  • knitting needles;
  • basic knitting skills.

Based on the fact that you want to get the end result - a hat for wearing in winter, spring or autumn, choose yarn. It can be woolen, cotton or synthetic, we will talk about its choice in more detail below.

As for the knitting needles, they directly depend on the selected yarn, since their number must correspond to the thickness of the thread.

Today you can find wooden, metal and even plastic knitting needles of various types.

The type of knitting needles to work depends on the knitting method. For example, a seamless hat is knitted on circular or hosiery (5 pieces) knitting needles, but the product that will need to be sewn at the end of the work is knitted on two straight knitting needles.

Knitting technology for womens hats

It is easy to cope with the task of knitting a women's hat, especially if you have any knitting skills and certain rules and knitting technology are observed.

Based on the model that you are going to knit, a method is chosen how to knit a hat. It can be a longitudinal knitting with a pipe or a cloth tied along. An important role is played by the pattern, knitting density, possible accessories in the form of pompons, tassels, fur inserts, etc.

You should also take into account the size of the head for which the hat will be knitted.

To determine the size, you need to measure the circumference of the head, 1 cm above the auricle, and above the eyebrows. We look at the resulting length in the table below, and find out how deep the cap should be.

Head measurement table for calculating the depth of the headgear

Head circumference, cm Depth of headgear, cm.
50 16,0
51 16,2
52 16,5
53 16,9
54 17,2
55 17,5
56 17,8
57 18,2
58 18,5
59 18,8
60 19,0

Another important point is the calculation of a set of loops. The selected yarn should be knitted with a control sample, which will be 10 cm.

If, during measurements, 50 cm was obtained, and when counting the loops in the control sample, for example, 25 loops were obtained, then you need to multiply 50 by 25 and divide by 10 (50 * 25/10 = 125). It turns out that it is necessary to dial 125 loops in width, and knit 16 cm in height, according to the table.

How to choose a yarn for knitting a women's hat?

Of course, many people believe that natural thread is a priority, but this is not always justified, since a hat knitted from natural woolen yarn, after several washings, will lose its shape and "run away". Therefore, it is recommended to select yarns containing synthetic material.

On average, yarns containing 50–70% natural fibers and 30–50% synthetic fibers are ideal.
Important! The yarn in the skein should be free of knots and thickening of the thread.

Now, regarding the seasonality of the headdress:

  • winter options can be knitted from woolen or terry threads, as they keep warm well;
  • for autumn and spring hats, acrylic, cotton, linen, silk threads are suitable.

How to quickly knit a beautiful hat with knitting needles for a woman: simple patterns




Video master classes on knitting women's hats with knitting needles

Circular knitting needles? This question is increasingly being asked by novice masters. And all because recently it has become common to knit clothes without seams. It began when oversized sweaters (that is, several sizes larger than necessary) came into fashion with loose, with voluminous braids and dropped shoulders. For such a style, there is no need to fit the model, calculate the armholes and neckline. The simpler and more casual a thing looks, the better. And it is most convenient to knit it on circular knitting needles.

Of course, such devices are suitable not only for but also for large shawls, stoles, snoods, blankets, hats and even socks. Let's take a closer look at knitting with circular knitting needles for beginners (and not only).

How to choose a tool

The materials from which the circular knitting needles are made:

  • Metal.
  • Aluminum.
  • Wood.
  • Bamboo.
  • Plastic.

In the process of work, each craftswoman chooses the material that is more convenient for her, fits better in her hand and allows the hinges to easily slide over the surface of the instrument.

The circular knitting needles are connected to each other by a fishing line or a nylon cable. When choosing, pay attention to the fact that the joint between the cable and the spoke is tight, there are no cracks or sharp cuts. For such "burrs" the yarn will cling, which can damage its quality. If you work with thick knitting needles, 4.5 mm or more, it is important that the transition from the thickness of the tool to the cable is smooth. Otherwise, it will become difficult to transfer the loops from the cable to the knitting needle.

Choose the size of the knitting needles based on the thickness of the yarn from which the product will be. As a rule, the recommended size is written on the packages. But if suddenly there is no such information, or the label is lost, take a tool twice as thick as the working thread.

The length of the fishing line or cable is different, so be guided by the size of the future product. If it is a blanket, then the length may be maximum, but for knitting small clothes, it may interfere.

Features of working on circular knitting needles

Knitting with circular needles for beginners consists of several stages. First, we collect the loops. Do this If the product does not go in a circle, then the work is done as when knitting with straight knitting needles, that is, the working cloth must be turned over after each knitted row.

If the working fabric closes in a circle, then the last knitted loop of the first row becomes the first loop of the second. At this point, it is better to attach a plastic marker or tie a thread of a contrasting color so that you know exactly where one row ends and another begins. Be sure to check that the row is not twisted and that all the loops are facing up.

In order to prevent “steps” from forming in the place where the product closes in a circle, pull the thread tighter.

Magic loop

Magic Loop, or "magic loop", is a European knitting technique on circular knitting needles, in which the diameter of the product is absolutely not important. It can be a mitten or a cuff - those things that we are used to knitting on four or five stocking needles.

How to knit things with a small diameter on circular knitting needles?

  • We start with a set of loops in the usual way.
  • We divide the number of loops by two, thread a loop from a cable in the middle and distribute the loops on two knitting needles.
  • Next, pull the knitting needle in the right hand so that you can start knitting the loops from the left knitting needle.
  • Having tied the left knitting needle to the end, pull the right knitting needle again and continue working in the same spirit.

This method will appeal to those who do not like to work with stocking needles.

Knitted hat

We knit a hat on circular knitting needles. This is the simplest model that even novice needlewomen can handle. In the future, it can be associated with the use of volumetric braids or arans. For a winter hat, choose woolen yarn with the addition of acrylic, then the product will be warm, soft and will not irritate the skin on the forehead.

We start by calculating the loops. Work in a small pattern, such as 20 stitches wide by 20 rows high. Ideally, the sample should be washed and dried, then you will know for sure if the hat will change in size after washing. Measure the sample so you know how many stitches are in one centimeter.

Measure the circumference of your head. Now let's make a simple calculation: multiply the number of loops in the sample by the number of centimeters of the head circumference and divide by the data indicated in the sample. That's how many loops we collect.

How to knit a hat on circular knitting needles? We distribute the loops on two knitting needles by pulling the loop. We begin to work with the "magic loop" method. We knit an elastic band 2 * 2 about 20 cm in height in a circle, it can be more or less depending on whether you will make a lapel and what size. After the elastic, you need to make a constriction. We reduce about a quarter of the existing loops by knitting two together, evenly distributing them. For example, by knitting every seventh and eighth stitch together.

We continue to work only with the front loops. After knitting about 10 cm, we make another decrease, cutting off one third of the existing loops. Choose any length of the hat: it can wrap your head tightly, or it can be a long beanie hat. Close another half of the loops closer to the edge of the product. At the end, knit all the loops in two, use a hook to thread the working thread through them and tighten. The finished hat can be decorated with a pom-pom.

How to adapt patterns for circular knitting needles

Often in the patterns of patterns, both the front and the purl rows are shown. But when knitting in a circle, there are no purl rows. This makes the job very easy. So how to knit on circular knitting patterns?

  • In circular knitting, they are not, but on many patterns they are indicated, so take this into account when making calculations.
  • If you are a beginner needlewoman, then it is better to choose those patterns where odd rows need to be knitted according to a pattern. Then over each front knit the front, over the purl - the purl.
  • Keep in mind that there are patterns that are not designed to be knitted in a circle. Just replace them with others that are no less beautiful and interesting.
