This season, good old knitted cardigans are popular again. Time has proven the versatility of the model - this item can serve as outerwear, an office suit, or shine as a festive outfit. Possible combination with sweaters, blouses, T-shirts and T-shirts, dresses, skirts, trousers of all kinds. You need to update your wardrobe at low cost - please, shelter from the spring dampness - easily, walk beautifully along the boulevard on a cool evening - no problem either!
In general, a fashionable knitted cardigan is the basic item that will allow you to create the maximum number of looks with existing clothes.
Cardigans of today
Despite its versatility, a cardigan is a tricky thing. If you choose an outdated knitted model, it is very easy to turn into an aunt, even if you are twenty years old.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” +10 to your passport.
Generally speaking, elongated cardigans of a simple cut (plain or multi-colored, including gradient) are now popular. Modern straight lines are ideal for overweight people - the figure looks slender and neat precisely thanks to the vertical details and simple silhouette. You should not get carried away with belts, rhinestones, shiny details - this is yesterday.
The Lalo cardigan is a thing that blew up the Internet!
Bright, rich colors make models of different colors different from each other. Loose knitting with thick knitting needles, familiar cable weaves, warm mohair thread - the result is an original, cozy Lalo cardigan, appropriate for a student classroom, a formal office, or on a walk.
The flying silhouette, created by weaving a voluminous thread vertically, will suit a bold girl prone to shocking behavior. The impression will be enhanced by rich, surreal color combinations, a wave effect, and a transition from cold to warm tones.
Chinchilla (Asian spikelet)
Very beautiful knitted items, from a distance reminiscent of a shishilla fur coat (which is where they got their name from). As a rule, they are colored, with stunning smooth color transitions.
The discreet range of flowing spikelets is good for both a young girl and a mature lady.
Another trend – perky pimples
An original decoration for everyday clothes - cute little bumps, 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 come in a variety of models that are widened towards the bottom, voluminous knitted and not figure-hugging.
Don't forget that pimples are very insidious! Having bought a short, tight cardigan in a dull color, you will definitely fall into the “they don’t wear it like that anymore” category. Fashionable options are united by an extremely long 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, and location of pockets allows you to create more and more fashionable items.
Knitted cozy fluffies
Textile imitation, loops and curls add warmth and create maximum visual volume. The photos represent several similar models.
Bright colors and geometric prints
On a cloudy day, it’s especially nice to wear a bright multi-colored cardigan or hide from the chilly dampness in a thick, honeycomb-knit long jacket. As always, trendy stripes and crisp geometric prints.
Faux fur trim
Fur inserts, collars and pockets will add a touch of home comfort to outerwear.
This utilitarian, very practical detail not only helps you escape the cold, but also creates a modern, stylish look that is appropriate in any setting.
Oversized
The oversized style in knitted items emphasizes the fragility of a girl’s figure, and deliberate carelessness emphasizes self-confidence. It doesn’t matter here whether it’s warm or cold, the main thing is to be stylish and comfortable. Wide long sleeves, roomy pockets, sloping shoulder line - details that are clearly visible in the photo.
Whatever styles designers offer us, decorating them with pockets, collars or pimples, the most important indicator remains the length. In the spring of 2019, long styles, oversized, wide sleeves and dropped armholes are in trend.
A cardigan is a basic universal item, so having a modern colored model in your wardrobe, you can safely combine it with many things and look stylish and attractive.
A cardigan is a large, showy item, so knitters want it to fit perfectly on the figure, look beautiful and have an interesting texture. It is most convenient to knit a cardigan with knitting needles on a fishing line, since you can cast on many loops at once to knit large parts, for example, a back or a shawl collar.
A knitted cardigan is not necessarily a product with buttons, so even beginner knitters who find it difficult to make stitches can take it on. The product can be made with folded hems on the belt, and knitting it with knitting needles is much easier than fiddling with loops. There are styles of cardigans with a single button fastening using an air loop, although then you won’t be able to limit yourself to just knitting needles: you’ll have to pick up a crochet hook. But tying an elementary chain by closing it in a loop is a very simple procedure.
If you have good crocheting skills, you can decorate the finished cardigan knitted with knitting needles along the edges with various elements. It’s a good idea to knit flowers and leaves that can become a decoration for a product on the collar or in the form of a brooch on the chest. Such a cardigan can even be smooth, made in garter or stocking stitch.
How to knit a beautiful cardigan with knitting needles, where to start
The most spectacular cardigan is an openwork knit. There are many knitting patterns that feature interesting textures or even look like lace. A light cardigan with such a texture will look charming and will warm you well in cool weather or on an evening walk in the summer. To make such a thing, you need to study the elements of openwork knitting: yarn overs, knit stitches and purl stitches. A warmer product can be made with knitting needles and a special pin for weaving loops. “Braids”, “ropes”, “diamonds”, “bumps” - these are the main elements that you will have to master for such a cardigan.
You also need to provide the cut details:
- back;
- shelves;
- coquette;
- collar;
- sleeves;
- cuffs
It is good to knit a cardigan with knitting needles in the raglan style, which involves a minimum of parts that will have to be sewn together. Combining them beautifully is also a certain art that requires the acquisition of new skills. You will have to master kettel and knitted seams (vertical and horizontal). Alternatively, you can connect the parts with a crochet hook, knitting single crochets or half-crochet stitches.
Selecting a model and knitting pattern
When starting to knit a cardigan, you need to choose a model that would fit your figure perfectly. Next you need to understand what the yarn consumption is for the product. If you don’t have much yarn, it’s better to knit an openwork model: it’s more economical. If you knit with larger knitting needles, the work will be completed faster, but the threads should also be thick enough so that the finished cardigan does not look too loose and does not lose shape when washed.
The knitting pattern depends not only on the style, but also on the pattern. Those who know how to make complex patterns well with knitting needles should knit a sample with the selected threads in order to calculate from it how many loops will have to be cast on in width. The height of the part can be adjusted while working on the pattern or by measuring with a centimeter.
For those who are not well versed in patterns and patterns, it is advisable to choose a ready-made model with a pattern and strictly follow the recommendations for selecting yarn and knitting needles.
Selection of yarn and tools
The thread should not be thicker than the knitting needles, otherwise it will be awkward to knit. If its diameter is much smaller, the knitted fabric will lose its elasticity, which will lead to deformation of the cardigan. The thickness of the yarn is indicated on the label for the skein. With paired knitting needles it’s even simpler: a number is often stamped on their shanks, which is their diameter. But what about knitting needles on a fishing line if they have been in the household for a long time, and it is impossible to remember what was written on their label? You can use a caliper, or if you don’t have one, just pierce a piece of graph paper with a knitting needle and estimate the diameter of the resulting hole. It is convenient to simply compare the thickness of the thread and knitting needles by eye, and if they approximately coincide, then start knitting a sample of the selected pattern.
New models of cardigans for women and girls
Among the new models of cardigans, there are many samples made with knitting needles. In most cases, weave knitting is used. These are large “braids” or “ropes”, as well as their variations. Such a relief texture will make even a straight product unforgettable. There are practically no shaped tight cardigans among the newfangled designs these days. Therefore, before you start knitting a cardigan, it is worth practicing with a weaving pin.
It should be remembered that the overlap of the loops slightly narrows the resulting fabric, and the holes, on the contrary, expand. This means that you need to not be lazy to knit a large sample, for example, 20 loops for 20 or 30 rows, in order to correctly calculate the number of both for a cardigan piece.
If you calculate correctly, you will get a beautiful product. Examples can be seen in the photographs. There are also options for very simple knitting from yarn of different colors. Eye-catching stripes make all the weather happen. Garter stitch with thick threads and large knitting needles is another way to make a cardigan interesting.
How to knit a cardigan with knitting needles - lessons for beginners
The easiest to knit is a thick cardigan made with knit stitches from multi-colored yarn. You can choose only black and white threads of the same type to create a spectacular product. The cardigan pattern needs to be drawn into strips of unequal width (like a barcode placed on its side), count how many rows there are in each of these strips, and start knitting the back and shelves. Yarn can be selected with a thickness of 4 to 5 mm. If it is thinner, then you can knit it in two threads. You can even knit a cardigan with 7 mm knitting needles, but it is important to remember that the thread should not be very thin.
Usually they start knitting parts from the bottom of the product to its top. The fronts and back are knitted straight, without decreasing stitches, right up to the place where the sleeves will be sewn in. If you don’t reduce the stitches here, you can make a cardigan with a low armhole, which is also welcome in this fashion season. The sleeve pattern must completely correspond to such an armhole, otherwise it will be difficult to sew it into the product.
The fastener can be made with a “zipper”, which will have to be sewn on a machine using a large stitch. You will have to make sure that the machine does not pull the hem of the cardigan.
Knitted cardigans - patterns with descriptions
Those who are more advanced in knitting can safely take on an openwork cardigan. Even if you knit it with relatively thin knitting needles, the result will still come out quickly. Air knitting does not require a large number of loops and rows. The thread consumption for a cardigan will be less.
Knitted openwork cardigan
Openwork cardigans are good for overweight and thin people. As soon as a plump lady chooses a trapeze silhouette, a cardigan thrown over her shoulders will make her look slimmer. A large pattern for an openwork weave cardigan with rounded elements is best chosen by those with a thin figure. The main thing is to find a knitting pattern on the Internet. A tight-fitting cardigan, the pattern of which has a diagonal direction, can also add slimness. If you add an elongated silhouette, then the correction of the figure due to clothing can be considered complete.
Will it be possible to knit a cardigan with knitting needles in the Art Nouveau style if you choose the fluffy “Lalo” style that many people love as a basis? Art Nouveau implies curved lines, which means a tight silhouette. “Lalo” are voluminous ropes, which in many patterns are called braids. The cardigan turns out to be straight, but due to its volume, it acquires a barrel-shaped shape. This cozy cocoon can be worn with a belt, and then the figure will take on an hourglass silhouette. And this already fits into the concept of modernity. And flowing “ropes” also cannot be called straight lines.
The “Rope” pattern for a cardigan is knitted using a special pin (hairpin, additional knitting needle). In the pattern of the product, the weave is done on a section of 30 or 32 knit stitches. To do this, 15 or 16 loops (respectively) are strung on a pin and passed forward, and the remaining 15 or 16 loops are knitted. Then the removed loops from the pin are sent to the non-working knitting needle - attention! – without twisting and knitted in the same way with knit stitches. Since we only have two interlacing lines of loops, this is a classic “rope”. The “braid” consists of three “strands” in the same way as it is woven from hair. Using the example of 30 loops, it looks like this: after 16 rows from the beginning, the first 10 loops are removed with a pin and folded forward of the work. Another 10 loops overlap with them - the average of 30. Next, another 16 rows are knitted, after which the first 10 stitches are knitted with knit stitches, the second ten are removed with a pin and passed at the back of the work, and the last 10 stitches out of 30 are knitted in front. Then the loops are removed from the pin, and it is the turn to knit them with knitting needles.
The “Lalo” cardigan can also be made in “braids”, then the weaving will be one and a half times smaller, the puffs will not be so convex, which is just favorable for women with a full figure.
It is easy to make a non-voluminous cardigan with knitting needles for a full figure, as it is knitted simply - with garter stitch. With it, turning the work, you continue to knit only the front (or only the purl) loops. You can knit without really thinking about it. The main thing is to correctly calculate the loops and rows according to the pattern. To make garter stitch with knitting needles look embossed, you should arm yourself with large knitting needles and thick thread. The turn-down collar of this model will give those same diagonal lines that perfectly hide fullness.
You can make asymmetrical shelves with knitting needles by adding loops; This will require a special pattern. The asymmetry of the cardigan consists of a diagonal line on the right hem, which can be secured with a single large button at the standing collar. The rest of the fastener should be made secret - with buttons or Velcro.
Long knitted cardigan with hood
If you want to knit a cardigan with a hood, then you should be responsible when choosing a pattern. It's easy to knit a cardigan using alternating vertical stripes of purl and knit stitches. Often this pattern is complemented by interlacing “ropes” or “braids”. But it is precisely this texture that can let you down, and a cardigan with a hood will turn out to look like a bathrobe.
It is better to choose an openwork pattern for such a product that is easy to knit. If this item does not seem warm enough to you, then it is better to even knit a cardigan with knitting needles in a scarf or stocking pattern.
If you are good at knitting needles with threads of different colors, then you can come up with some kind of letter prints or just geometric shapes, apply them to a cardigan pattern and build a knitting pattern based on it. Often, advanced knitters can keep such a pattern in their heads, and already knitted rows will serve as a “beacon” for them.
Children's cardigan with honeycomb pattern for girls – knitted
Do not think that a cardigan, especially with an elongated silhouette, is clothing exclusively for adults. Children's cardigans also came into fashion and became an integral attribute of a child's wardrobe. Knitting a cardigan for your daughter or granddaughter is an opportunity to hone your skills, learn how to cut and count stitches. After all, knitting a small cardigan means the work goes faster and the result becomes visible earlier.
"Honeycomb" pattern
Today, a children's cardigan made with knitting needles in the “Honeycomb” pattern is popular. There are several options for these “hundreds”. There is a spectacular two-color pattern for crochet; it is also suggested to knit it simultaneously with crochet and knitting. That is, the upper and lower lines of the honeycomb, which ideally have a slope of 120°, are knitted, and the vertical ones are then added using a hook.
The second option is done exclusively with knitting needles. The cardigan turns out to be monochromatic, with a relief pattern, which is based on the technique of overlapping loops described above. But you will have to work a lot more on them than on the Lalo cardigan. To imitate the inclined lines of a honeycomb, you will have to “move” the loops in each row, both in the front and back.
The complexity of knitting such a pattern with knitting needles will not make the work too long, since the cardigan is for children, that is, small. But in such a product the baby will be warm.
It's good to knit a cardigan for a boy. For your baby, you don’t have to choose complex and elaborate patterns. Two-color “Honeycombs” are of no use here. But knitting convex “honeycombs” with knitting needles, choosing threads of a dark, cold tone is quite possible even for a schoolchild.
The cardigan is not only women's clothing, and it was invented by a man of a very harsh profession. This Englishman was an officer and had the last name, as you may have guessed, Cardigan. It is not known what exactly these warm clothes for soldiers were knitted with back then - knitting or crocheting, or whether knitting machines were in use. But for army men who spent a lot of time in the field, this turned out to be a real salvation in the cold.
Dear ladies, knit cardigans for girls and boys: the children will feel warm.
Fashionable knitted cardans: we knit them ourselves. Ideas, master classes.
Handmade is gaining popularity again. And thanks to young and promising designers, hand-knitted items are at the peak of popularity today. But such things usually cost exorbitant amounts of money. Why pay if you can tie it yourself? In this article we have collected the most fashionable cardigans, as well as their knitting patterns. Does a cardigan seem like a lot of work? Yes, but the result exceeds expectations!
How to knit cardigans? What do you need to knit cardigans?
To knit cardigans you don't need much. Depending on the yarn and knitting, knitting needles of the desired size on the fishing line. Why circular? Most often, the knitting is elastic and the side seams unsightly pull the cardigan along the sides. To avoid this, it is best to knit a seamless cardigan. And this is a meter or more of fabric, imagine how straight the knitting needles must be, and how strong the arms must be to withstand such weight.
There is no clear answer regarding the choice of spokes. He who loves something praises it. The Internet is filled with beautiful photographs of wooden knitting needles, but most craftswomen still buy steel or coated aluminum ones.
The type of yarn, thickness and quantity depends on the type of cardigan and is considered in each individual case. If you decide to knit a copy of a designer item, we recommend choosing the same yarn composition as the original, since most often the appearance directly depends on the type of thread.

Calculation: your chest volume + 10 cm for a loose fit. This is the length of the canvas. For us it will be 100 cm. Since the cardigan does not fit and is very elastic, an equal value for the face and back is acceptable. For us it is 50 cm. We will combine two patterns. Stockinette stitch and openwork mesh. So, knitting calculation: 20 cm of openwork mesh, 10 cm of stockinette stitch, 40 cm of openwork mesh, 10 cm of stockinette stitch, 20 cm of openwork mesh. Depending on your size, calculate proportionally as well.
Sleeve length is three quarters. Of these, the first 20 cm are knitted in openwork mesh, the rest in satin stitch. The armhole and sleeve are knitted in the classic way.

Hooded cardigan with knitting needles, diagrams and description
An openwork cardigan is incredibly beautiful, but still many people associate a cardigan with warm, cozy clothing. We suggest knitting a cardigan from wool blend yarn for autumn walks. For size 40 you will need 1700 g of yarn, the thickness of which is 60 m per 100 g.
In order to increase or decrease the product, you need to add or subtract 1 cm on each side. In order not to destroy the pattern, we recommend adding pearl knitting and reducing it by no more than a size.
We knit from 5 parts (2 sleeves, 2 shelves and a back). The knitting is tight, the seams will not pull the material together, and dividing it into parts will make needlework much easier.
Hood. We sew the shoulders, pick up loops along the neckline and knit this way: the first 7 pearl loops, then according to the pattern, the remaining 7 pearl loops. Knit 19 cm in this way, then begin to decrease. On both sides of the middle 9 p. 1 x 1 p., knit 14 r. and reduce every 2nd r. 8 x 1 p. (on the wrong side on the right, 2 p. together, twisted, on the left, 2 p. together, purl). After 38 cm from the beginning of the hood, close off the remaining 47 sts.
Cardigan with braided knitting needles, diagrams and description
Two sister fashion designers recently founded the Lalo brand, and revived the love for chunky knits and baggy cozy items. Today there is not a single fashionista who would not dream of a Lalo cardigan. We suggest not to waste time and knit it yourself. There is a small nuance - thin girls will wear any of the cardigans, but those who are fuller should carefully select the knitting. A cardigan with voluminous braids looks good.
For such a cardigan, size 40, 90 cm long, you will need about 2 kg of alize lanagold 800 yarn. Depending on the number of colors, you will need 2-4 colors. For a beautiful gradient, we recommend using a color palette of recommended shades. The cardigan is knitted in 3 threads. The gradient is obtained by gradually replacing the thread. First one thread is replaced, then the second and finally the third. A smooth gradient adds a special chic.
Knitting pattern for Lalo cardigan The cardigan consists of 14 braids, for size 40 the braid has 16*16 loops. Depending on the size, the size of the braid changes. The sleeves are knitted with 3 braids.

Karina: when I first brought knitting needles and threads into the house, my family snorted. I will supposedly knit things that would be embarrassing to wear around the house. But knitting is so different! Today, everyone I know wears my cardigans, and while I’m on maternity leave, I’m doing a great job doing handicrafts. I can give advice to beginners - do not skimp on yarn, because most often the item looks cheap due to the useless yarn. And also follow the latest fashion trends, and don’t take out diagrams from grandma’s chests. No, no, they are not bad, it’s just that until you get the hang of it and have a sense of style, it’s better to copy designers than to go into dubious experiments.
Anna: All the women in my house knitted, so naturally I picked up this handicraft too. Most of all I like to knit toys, but when I saw cardigans from a Georgian designer, I couldn’t resist! I knitted it for myself and my mother in mirror colors. I started with purple for my bottom, switched to lilac and finished with fuchsia, and for my mother I alternated colors the other way around. Thus, we have a fashionable family look, but each one has an exclusive item. In knitting, I can recommend at first a minimum of self-will, a maximum of working according to patterns. After a couple of years or related fifty things, you can begin your own development.

A cardigan is a comfortable, practical thing that should be in the wardrobe of every woman and girl. You can make this essential wardrobe item yourself by mastering a simple and exciting technique - knitting, using large knitting and simple patterns, which are given later in the article.
Chunky knitting is one of the trends of the new season, which has not lost its position for many years now, remaining at the peak of fashion. Even a novice craftswoman can knit a stylish item on her own, using large knitting. To make the product look stylish, it is important to choose the right yarn and knitting needles. It is the knitting technique that will help in creating a stylish chunky knit cardigan, simple patterns and descriptions for which are given later in the article.
For work you need to choose a fairly thick and voluminous yarn. At the same time, it should not be heavy and the pattern should be simple so as not to overload the model. First things first.
Yarn for a large knit cardigan should be at least 150 meters per 100 gram skein. It makes sense to choose threads that have 100 grams per 100 meters. The composition of such yarn should be mixed, where at least 50% will be acrylic. You can choose pure high-volume acrylic, then you will end up lighter in weight and more voluminous, but will not warm you up in the cold season. It will be intended only for beauty and to complete the image.
Many manufacturers offer similar yarn to their consumers. These are domestic threads: “Popular”, “Autumn” from Pekhorka, and imported Turkish thread “Arctic” from Nako, “Lanagold Maxi” from Alize, “Alpin Maxi” from YarnArt and others.
In addition, there are special threads, the footage of which is from 15 to 40 meters per 100 grams. These are very thick threads that have become very popular recently. A cardigan from this yarn can be knitted in just an evening. These are threads: “Dolly” from Adeliya, “Country” from Alize, “Balki Lur” and others. In order to knit a cardigan from such yarn, you will have to buy more than 10 skeins of yarn.
For large knitting, choose knitting needles of at least number five. To work with very thick yarn, where the yardage is from 20 to 60 meters per 100 grams, knitting needles from 9 to 12 numbers will be used.
Cut and silhouette of chunky knit cardigan
For a chunky knit cardigan, you should use the simplest pattern. Quite thick threads will look rough if you knit the armhole and sleeve head according to the set-in sleeve patterns. Although, if the yarn allows, if its footage is about 200 meters per 100 gram skein, then you can knit a set-in sleeve. Let's look at several options.
Option #1
This is the simplest cardigan pattern, which consists of a wide rectangle for the back, two rectangles for the front and small rectangles for the sleeves. Determine the width of the back by the circumference of the hips, divided in half. The shelves are halves of the back. For this option, there is no need to make reductions for the armhole, so the sleeves will be simple rectangles, the width of which is equal to the width of the sleeve, and the length is two-thirds of the length of the sleeve.
Option No. 2
Here we knit rectangles for the back and fronts, but make decreases for the armhole. We make these decreases once, closing several loops on both sides of the back and on one side of the shelves. We knit the sleeve for such a cardigan in the form of a rectangle expanding at the top without an edge.
You will also need to close the loops for the neck. Afterwards you will need to tie the neckline or make a collar.
Option No. 3
This and the next option are suitable for not very thick yarn. Making a pattern for a cardigan with set-in sleeves. To do this, we knit the armhole according to a certain pattern and make a sleeve cap.
For the armhole cast off 3, 2, 1 stitches in each row. To roll up the sleeves, close 2, 2 loops on each side, then 2 times through a row of 1 loop, then in each row 1 loop until the height reaches 20 centimeters. Cast off the remaining stitches in the last row.
Option No. 4
The cardigan can be knitted from top to bottom with raglan sleeves. To do this, cast on loops for the front shelves, back and sleeves at once. Distribute them and knit raglan. After the sleeve loops are set aside, the back and fronts are finished and move on to the sleeves. Calculation of the number of loops and rows of raglan is done individually or according to the description of specific models.
Before you start working on a cardigan, you should knit a sample and make calculations. The sample must be knitted according to the selected pattern.
Patterns and patterns for a chunky knit cardigan
Chunky knitting requires a simple cut and a simple pattern. The texture of the threads already creates style and adds zest to the product.
Let's look at a few simple patterns for knitting a cardigan in chunky knit. For such models, it is worth choosing simple patterns, since thick yarn will not be very good in openwork and weaving.
The “rice” pattern is a very interesting and simple option for a cardigan. To knit it, knit and purl stitches are used. In the first row we knit alternately knit and purl, in the second row we knit according to the pattern, but on the contrary, if in the previous row there is a purl, then we knit it with the front one.
There is a variant for this pattern. We knit the first row alternately with knit and purl stitches. This will be the front row. We knit the purl row according to the pattern, that is, we knit the knits with the knits, and the purls with the purls. In the next front row we change the loops, knitting the front ones with the purls, and the purls with the front ones.
Patent rib is another option for a simple and effective pattern for a chunky knit cardigan. We knit a patent elastic band, alternating between a slip stitch and a knit stitch. At the beginning and at the end of the row we knit edge stitches.
We knit the wrong side like this: knit (loop with double crochet), double crochet.
The honeycomb pattern is in great demand today for cardigans. Here the yarn overs are placed on the front side of the fabric, which forms a honeycomb, hence the name of the pattern.
For this pattern you need to cast on an odd number of stitches. The knitting pattern is as follows:
- The first row is purl. We knit the edge * 1 knit, remove 1 as a purl, * 1 knit, edge. Repeat from * to *.
- The second row is the front row. Edge stitch, knit 1, * knit stitch, slip yarn over as if purlwise (thread behind loop), knit 1, * edge stitch. Repeat from * to *.
- The third row is purl: edge stitch, * remove the loop with a double crochet, like a purl stitch, knit a loop with a knit yarn over, * edge stitch.
- The fourth row is the front one: edge row, * front row, remove the yarn over like a purl, 1 front row *, edge row.
- The fifth row is purl: we knit the edge, loop and yarn over together with the front one, remove 1 loop and yarn over as a purl, edge.
Then we knit rows 2 to 5 alternately.
Today it is fashionable to knit cardigans with braid patterns. To do this, you need to make weaves according to the pattern. Braids are knitted only with facial loops.
A knitted cardigan is a universal wardrobe element that can be combined with trousers, skirts, and shorts. You can buy it in most stores, but it’s much nicer to have a unique item, and for this you have to knit it yourself.
Knitted cardigans for women models photo and description
Cardigan is a wardrobe element that consists of a back and two front parts. Worn like a jacket - on the shoulders.
A cardigan can be with or without fasteners, with buttons and even zippers, have a belt, a hood, and different types of pockets - patch, hidden, lowercase.
Nowadays they are considered very fashionable things over size– i.e. larger than it actually is. That's why we consider long, large and loose cardigans. You'll have to knit a lot of fabric, but it's worth it! The main thing is to find a color that suits you. The good thing is that when you knit something yourself, you can choose any pattern, color and yarn. You can make a collar and sew pockets on the finished product. Stylish women's products and patterns with descriptions are waiting for you below!
