Outerwear models occupy a special place in modern knitwear fashion. Which of us has not looked at knitted women's coats and cardigans at least once!

Pattern patterns, silhouettes and styles of these models are so diverse today that it is impossible not to applaud the art of mastering such needlework. Meanwhile, you can learn to knit such knitwear, and this article is devoted to the basics of this ancient and at the same time modern craft.

Where to begin?

Before you start knitting, you need to purchase yarn and tools. Then choose the right model. And then build a full-size pattern and calculate the number of loops you need to get started.

Choosing yarn and knitting needles

Since knitted models of outerwear are usually made of rather voluminous yarn, novice craftswomen should not deviate from established traditions and choose a thread of medium thickness with a footage of 200-250 m in a 100-gram skein. The composition of the thread can be anything, it all depends on the preferences of the knitter. It can be completely woolen yarn, mixed with the addition of various fibers - mohair, acrylic, nylon, silk or cotton. The variety of types of yarn currently does not limit the tastes and imagination of the knitter.

For a thread of any composition and average thickness, knitting needles No. 3-4 are most suitable. If (120-150 m / 100 g), then the size of the needles increases to No. 5-6. They are also selected from the material that the craftswoman prefers, but it is necessary to take circular knitting needles of different lengths: they may be required for the convenience of making various details. So, it is more convenient to knit the back on knitting needles with a fishing line length of 80-85 cm, and the sleeve - on knitting needles with a shorter fishing line length.

How to make a pattern

It is desirable to use a pattern in making a knitted model: it will turn out more beautiful, it will be better to sit on the figure. The inability to build it according to all the canons of sewing art in the case of knitted jersey is absolutely not critical, since the plasticity of the knitted fabric is amazing: it hides many flaws. Beginning craftswomen who decide to knit a coat or cardigan can be guided by the following tips:

They choose their favorite model, not necessarily knitted, conveniently and comfortably “sitting” according to the figure and having suitable sizes.

If the shape of the chosen thing suits completely, this is the best option for a future pattern. The silhouette is transferred to paper, after checking and adjusting (if necessary) the dimensions.

Loop sample calculation

After the pattern is ready, you should correctly calculate the number of loops needed for the set. This is necessary for a good fit on the figure of any clothing models, even those like cardigans with knitting needles. Pattern schemes are also important, so before calculating the number of loops, you should choose a pattern.

In order to calculate the number of loops for a set, a sample is knitted and, after steaming it, is measured. The number of loops in 1 cm of the canvas is multiplied by the number of cm in the part. Thus, the required number of loops is found. In most cases, it has to be subsequently adjusted depending on the chosen pattern and the number of loops in the rapport.

Knitted coats and cardigans with knitting needles: patterns for beginners

For needlewomen who have recently taken knitting needles in their hands, it is better to start with simple patterns. Cardigans look great, the basis of which is one loop - the front, that is, work is done both from the face and from the wrong side with front loops.

Knitted fabric knitted with a shawl stitch is plastic, easy to perform and very effective. Knitted coats and cardigans, the schemes for which are so simple, are the best option for beginners.

structural patterns

Favorite drawings of novice masters are structural. These include simple alternations of front and back loops. For example, very often outerwear models are made with a “rice” pattern, where the alternating knitting of these loops changes with each subsequent row, i.e., the front one is knitted over and vice versa. You can alternate not one, but two or three loops. You can also increase the number of rows, performing 2-3 rows without changing the pattern, and change the loops from the 4th row.

Such patterns are valuable because you can independently conceive any alternation and embody them in the author's model.

Knitted models made with a pattern of braids

Knitted coats, knitted cardigans with patterns of braids, plaits, rhombuses or arans are always in demand and never go out of fashion.

Since the article is aimed at an audience of needlewomen striving for mastery, we will consider braid patterns that are simple. The photo shows a pattern of narrow braids, turning into rhombuses.

The rapport of the pattern is 11 loops, i.e. for knitting the details, 11 + 2 edge ones should be typed on the knitting needles. The braid is knitted along the purl field, overlapping in each row 2 loops to the right, then to the left. Even rows (all) are performed according to the established pattern. Having knitted 24 rows, they begin to knit a rhombus, and from the 33rd row, repeat the pattern.

Braids can be small and large, voluminous and embossed. You can knit tightly or rather loosely. The master, of course, chooses for himself, relies on his own experience, preferences and knits knitted coats and cardigans. The schemes, the photos of which are offered, are simple, and it is almost impossible to make a mistake in them. In addition, you can make a fabric by knitting one braid on the wrong side, placing it along the line of longitudinal tucks.

Knitted coats and cardigans with knitting needles: patterns of openwork patterns

Openwork cardigans are spectacular and airy. Such clothes are always very individual, and making them with your own hands will further emphasize a certain zest.

The proposed scheme consists of a wide openwork "Christmas tree" framed by narrow paths. When performing such patterns, the skills of the same thread tension are required, so it is better for beginners to make openwork inserts, as suggested in the photo.

This method allows you to get products no less spectacular than fully openwork knitted coats and cardigans with knitting needles. Pattern patterns, even the most primitive ones, are always elegant, so the yarn for making such patterns needs to be selected more current than for braids and arans.

Children's models

No less popular are children's knitted coats and cardigans with knitting needles. Schemes (for children, by the way, there are many different models) and patterns are made to measure and line up according to the laws of sewing or copied from any suitable model. The pattern will help you do the job more clearly and accurately.

Children's coats are knitted from more delicate yarns, for example, from a line of special collections. Patterns should also be visually smaller than for adults.

Models made with a small structural pattern look great, and decorated with false or sewn-in collars - lace, guipure, knitted. The photo above shows a similar model with pockets connected by “rice”.

Thus, knitting models of outerwear will emphasize the individuality of an adult and become an adornment of a baby's wardrobe.

In the next 6 rows on each side, add 3 loops until you get 196-212 stitches. In the next transition, add 21 stitches on both sides to get 238-254 stitches.

The addition of 1 p. at the beginning and end of the row to form the sleeve is performed 11 times, alternating through 2 and 4 rows until 260-276 p. is obtained. This is done twice, and the closure of 16-18 rows begins along the 4th p. from both sides. 132 p. should remain, now close 9 times 5 p. * 2. 42 p. Remains. On the 9th row, the formation of the neck is added to the side closures by completing the middle 32 loops. The next row closes in 5 loops.

The edge for fasteners remains even, on the opposite side to be sewn, allowances and closures are made according to the backrest pattern. To form the shoulder, close 16-18 times 4 loops until 74 p. are left. Now, only on the front rows, the loops for the neck are closed - 13-14 p., 6, 3, 1, 1 - until completely closed. Pockets are made from 30 p. Closing on the 54th row. The pattern does not change.

The side and shoulder seams are sewn, respectively. Sew pockets at a comfortable height. Fastening occurs with decorative pins or brooches.

Product with buttons

To knit a cardigan with buttons, you will need thick yarn. A relief pattern with large buttons is used as finishing and decor elements. The length of the product reaches the middle of the thigh, the pockets are one-piece knitted, the collar is wide. How to knit a cardigan with knitting needles for beginners is described step by step in the detailed instructions. With a size of 46–48 and a knitting density in a plot of 10 x 10 cm, 14.5 p. For 15.5 p. will need:

• 1.4 kg of lilac yarn from 50% natural wool and polyacrylic;
• straight knitting needles No. 7 and 8;
• circular knitting needles with wire No. 7;
• 5 decorative buttons.

The elastic is performed on straight needles No. 7. For this, 90 points are typed and 7 cm are knitted according to the scheme - front and back rows begin and end with 1 edge loop. Then, on odd rows, alternating 4 sts of facial, 2 sts of purl, and on even rows - vice versa. On the last row you need to change, then go to the picture. The relief pattern is made with knitting needles No. 8 according to the scheme, with its duplication in length and height of the canvas.

At a height of 60 rows from the elastic, you can begin to form armholes for the sleeves. To do this, close 4 sts on both sides. Then every 2 rows - 2 p. 2 times, 3 times - 1 p. You should get 68 loops. On the 98th row, 28 medium loops are completed. On the next, you need to close the side loops.

The left and right shelves are knitted in a mirror image. For them, you need to dial 42 p., make an elastic band, as on the back, and knit 13 rows. On the 14th row, in the middle, you should complete 12-16 loops to form a pocket, knitting the remaining side loops. Separately, you need to dial a sufficient number of closed loops, drive a few rows and knit back, instead of completed loops, into the canvas.

On the 54th row, the formation of the neck begins. To do this, close one loop on the left once (and on the right for the second shelf), then 10 times - every 4th row, 1 loop (respectively, for the right). Shoulder closure is performed as on the back. In accordance with the back, the remaining loops are driven out.

Step by step knitting of sleeves

For the sleeves, you will need 42 loops for each. It is necessary to perform an elastic band, after which knitting continues using a common pattern. In each 8 row, at the beginning and end, one loop is added up to 60 loops. On the 54th close 3 stitches, then 4 times - 2 loops each, 8 times - 1 loop each and 4 - 2 loops each. The remaining loops are completed evenly until the 80th row. Next, you can make shoulder seams, sew the back with shelves and sew on the lining fabric to form pockets.

On knitting needles with fishing line, cast on 54 loops along the length on both shelves, 32 loops on the bevels, 28 loops on the back canvas. The pattern must be used rubber. After 2-4 rows, holes for buttons are formed. Each gap is made with a separate thread. After reaching the required size of the buttonholes, the fabric is connected and driven out with an elastic band for another 4-6 rows.

Starting at the bevels, you can add 12-16 more around the neck, this will form a collar that visually resembles a shawl draped over the shoulders. If you trim the fur inserts, tight knitting can protect you from inclement weather at temperatures around zero.

Attention, only TODAY!

This season, the good old knitted cardigans are again popular. The versatility of the model has been proved by time - this thing can serve as outerwear, office suit, shine as a festive outfit. It is possible to combine with sweaters, blouses, T-shirts and T-shirts, dresses, skirts, trousers of all kinds. You need to update your wardrobe at a low cost - please, hide from the spring dampness - easily, beautifully walk along the boulevard on a cool evening - also no problem!

In general, a fashionable knitted cardigan is the basic thing that will allow you to create the maximum number of looks with existing clothes.

Today's cardigans

Despite its versatility, the cardigan is an insidious thing. If you choose an outdated knitted pattern, it is very easy to turn into an aunt, even if you are twenty years old.

Therefore, it is important to know which models are relevant today, so as not to “throw” yourself +10 to your passport.

Speaking in general, now elongated cardigans of a simple cut (solid or multi-color, including a gradient) are relevant. Modern straight lines are ideal for full ones - the figure looks slender and neat precisely because of the vertical details, a simple silhouette. You should not get carried away with belts, rhinestones, shiny details - this is yesterday.

Cardigan Lalo - the thing that blew up the Internet!

Bright, saturated tones of which make models of different colors not similar to each other. Loose knitting with thick knitting needles, familiar braid weaves, warm mohair thread - as a result, the original, cozy Lalo cardigan, appropriate in a student audience, a strict office, on a walk.

A flying silhouette, created by weaving a voluminous thread vertically, will suit a bold, outrageous girl. The impression will be enhanced by rich, surreal color combinations, the effect of a wave, the transition from cold to warm tones.

Chinchilla (Asian spikelet)

Very beautiful knitted gizmos, from afar resembling a fur coat made of chishchilla (from where they got their name). As a rule, colored, with a stunning smooth transition of color.

The restrained range of falling spikelets is good for both a young girl and a mature lady.

Another trend - perky pimples

The original decoration of everyday clothes - cute pimples, as in the photo, will not leave fashionistas indifferent.

In cool weather, a very long sleeve that hides the palms is good. Golden spring ones diversify the models extended to the bottom, volumetric knitting, not fitting the figure.

Do not forget that pimples are very insidious! Having bought a short “skinny” cardigan in a dull color, you will definitely fall into the “they don’t wear it anymore” category. Fashionable options are united by an extremely and elongated cut. If you still want a short cardigan, then choose the oversized style.

Large bright pockets

Spring 2019 fashion trends - simplicity, comfort, and versatility are embodied in unusual pockets. Playing with shape, color, location of pockets allows you to create more and more new fashionable novelties.

Knitted cozy fluffies

Textile imitation, eyelets and curls add warmth and create maximum visual volume. Photos represent several similar models.

Vibrant colors and geometric prints

On a cloudy day, it is especially nice to put on a bright multi-colored cardigan or hide from dank dampness in a thick long jacket knitted with honeycombs. As always, trendy stripes and clear geometric prints.

Faux fur trim

Fur inserts, collars and pockets will give outerwear a touch of home comfort.

This utilitarian, very practical detail not only helps to escape from the cold, but to create a modern, stylish look that is appropriate in any environment.

oversize

The oversized style in knitwear emphasizes the fragility of the girl's figure, and deliberate negligence - self-confidence. It doesn't matter if it's warm or cold, the main thing is stylish and comfortable. Wide long sleeves, capacious pockets, a descending line of the shoulder - details that are clearly visible in the photo.

Whatever styles designers offer us, decorating them with pockets, collars or pimples, the length remains the most important indicator. In the spring of 2019, long styles, oversized, wide sleeves and a lowered armhole are relevant.

A cardigan is a basic versatile item, so having a modern color model in your wardrobe, you can safely combine it with many things and look stylish and attractive.
