How to knit a simple hat from maher

Knitting a beautiful hat is not as difficult as it seems. To do this, arm yourself with knitting needles, yarn and patience.

Necessary:

• woolen yarn - 50 g at 135 m;
• straight knitting needles No. 4 - 2 pcs.;
• knitting hook;
• scissors;
• darning needle.

1. Find out the circumference of the head of the future owner of the headgear and be sure to make a small square of the knitted fabric for the sample - the knitting density is always calculated individually. When knitting a hat with an English rubber band, an elastic, almost dimensionless, product is created. In the described example, with a head girth of 55-60 cm, a jersey density of 18 loops for 46 rows, 78 loops are dialed for the rim of the cap. Knitting needles are used straight, medium diameter (No. 4).
You can start knitting a hat with an English rubber band without making an elastic border-rim. At the same time, you can make a product canvas with or without a collar. Please note: 1x1 elastic band fixes the edge well!

2. Knit the headband in straight and purl rows, alternating 2 front and 2 purl loops in succession. When 8 rows are ready, start knitting a hat with an English elastic band. In the first row of the pattern, you will need to make uniform increases, bringing the total number of loops to 95.
To add loops, divide the row into equal segments, and in each knit with an additional thread bow. To do this, grab and twist the transverse threads between adjacent loops.

3. Run a fluffy canvas with an English rubber band until you reach a height of 25 cm from the edge of the rim. To form the main pattern of knitwear, perform alternating loops in the following sequence. In the first row of the pattern, do only facial; start the second row with an edge loop (it is removed untied); do the front. Next, repeat the so-called double front loops, inserting the right knitting needle into the thread bow of the previous row. Finishing loops - front and edge.

4. Start the third row of English Rib also with an edge loop, then alternate double and regular front loops until only a pair of thread arches remain on the left knitting needle. Knit the first of them double front, the second will be edge. Repeat the pattern according to the finished sample of the second and third rows until you make the main fabric of the headdress of the desired size.

5. Proceed to the formation of the crown of the cap. To round the knitted fabric and pull it off from above, make uniform decreases of loops in straight and reverse rows: at the beginning of the edge loop; during a row of 3, the thread arches are knitted together with the usual front; at the end - edge. On the next row, decrease without leaving edge stitches, always knit 3 stitches together.

6. Cut off the working yarn, leaving a “tail” about 10 cm long. Pull the open loops of the last row with it and drag it through the crochet inside the hat. Form a strong knot.

7. Turn the hat inside out, steam out the knitted fabric and carefully connect the side edges of the part. Sew a neat connecting seam with a darning needle and thread from a working ball. In order for the stitching to remain sufficiently elastic, and the product does not deform, do not make the stitches too tight.

Stylish hat with braids

Necessary:

• 150 g of yarn
• knitting needles number 3.5,
• knitting needles No. 4, 5

I knitted on two knitting needles, because on circular ones I have a large thread and it turns out to be very tight and there are large holes between the loops, and I like it tighter. Then I sewed it.
I scored 96 loops on the knitting needles. Knitting needles No. 3.5. Knitted in 2 strands, yarn with wool 20%, 135g per 50m.

I knitted an elastic band 2 × 2 about 6 cm.
Switched to knitting needles No. 4.5

Pattern:

• (2 out, 6 persons, 2 out, 2 persons) - repeat to the end of the row.
• knit according to the pattern, where there is out-out, where there are faces - faces.

Knit 6 rows like this and in the 7th row make overlaps where there are 6 faces. (Youtube is full of videos on how to knit braids). I did this: I transfer 3 loops to the toothpick, knit the next 3 knit ones, return these 3 loops from the toothpick to the left knitting needle and knit them too. So to the end of the row.

After these overlaps, we knit 1 row on the wrong side according to the pattern, I do not count it.

Summer beret in loin technique

Taken from here http://stranamasterov.ru/node/164124

Summer openwork beret with sirloin technique knitted from "Pelican" yarn (composition: 100% double mercerized cotton, 330 m, 50 gr.)
It took about 60-70 gr.
Hooks No. 1.5 (the main part of the beret), and No. 1 (peg)

Based on MOD Magazine No. 535
Something has come to change, because the original is crocheted from thicker threads No. 2

The beret is quite simple, even a novice craftswoman can do it.

Scheme of the main part of the beret.
Link 8 vp, close them with a ring conn. Art. Next, knit 12 double crochets in the ring, the second row - 24 double crochets. Etc. according to the scheme

After the main part of the beret is ready, it is necessary to make a peg about 3 cm wide

Summer is ahead, and I really want something bright, airy, positive! Somehow, in the same breath, this beret contacted. Even though she had other things planned. Maybe it's the coming spring. Well, it’s impossible to knit warm scarves, vests, etc., and that’s it!

When I first learned to crochet, I tried myself in filet knitting. A lot of napkins, collars, and even a lamp shade have been preserved at home. I like the technique even now, I remembered it with pleasure.

Hello, today's topic is this is KNITTING HAT… 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 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 eventually knit just such a winter hat as in the photo.

Today we will knit...

• hats-caps on knitting needles (elongated and on the head)
• beret hats on knitting needles and crochet (fluffy and not so)
• women's turban hats (I will show one simple way on knitting needles)
• knitted hats with fields and visors (I will tell you in detail how to make fields)
• winter hats with elegant soft lapels
• and dried wool caps designed like an English lady.

So, let's start knitting our autumn and winter hats.

Let's start with the simplest ones... and move on as the task becomes more complex.

Women's hats SIMPLE KNIT spokes ...

(cut CAP)

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

And in the same knitting with the “rice” pattern, it would be nice to knit a cozy scarf-snood (collar).

In such a RUNNING PATTERN (of the same type) can be connected as dense winter hat (covered over the head) ... So loose spacious knitted hat pattern. You can decorate a women's hat with one or two fur pompoms.

Can be knitted HAT-CAP - as in the photo below . She looks best when it has a fairly wide (16-20 rows) gum. 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 gives volume.

To knit any hat pattern exact knitting pattern in principle, it is not needed ... Since all the hats in the world are knitted according to the general principle. Below I give a general knitting pattern for hats-caps... And a little lower I will give a knitting pattern for all berets.

GENERAL KNITTING SCHEME

for any caps.

Such hats-caps can be knitted according to a simple WITHOUT A PATTERN ... or according to a RELIEF or OPENWORK pattern. Choose any knitting pattern on any 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 knitting needles) we knit an already patterned fabric of a hat. We get a model similar to the photo of the purple hat is above.

Or after knitting the elastic we can add stitches on the needles... and our canvas will begin to expand ... and we will get a model of a cap that is lush in volume (as on the pink model from the photo above ).

An important rule for adding loops.

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

For example, the report (repetition) of our pattern is 8 loops ... which means that the total number of loops on the knitting needles should be divided by 8 ... For example, it should be 160 ... or 168 ... or 176 loops ... (edge-edge loops do not count).

Step 2 - BASIC KNIT.

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

Step 3 - COMPLETING THE HAT .

Then when our hat approaches the back of the head(or whatever length you want)… we start to close the loops 4 each (or 6 ... or 8 each) in each row - the more you cast off the loops in the row, the faster your knitting will end. Since knitting is completed when 16-20 loops remain on the knitting needles

An important rule of DECREASE loops.

We know that there are fewer stitches on the needles if knit two loops together (as one) ... But in order for the decrease in loops to be UNIFORM - you need to do this decrease in any place ... 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 we divide a round cake into equal pieces with a knife) ... 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 make the decrease in a certain (at your choice) place of the pattern- and so in each repetition of the pattern we knit two loops together as one.

Here's what it looks like in the process sector decrease loops when knitting any hat or beret ... (it doesn’t matter if you knit it on two knitting needles or on circular ones).

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

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

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

In the second decreasing row there is one less loop in the sector (and we will already pick up together every 14th + 15th loop in a row) ....

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

Everything - now you can complete the knitting.

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

LOWERED hat in coarse knit…

If you knit a hat-cap on thick knitting needles and thick threads ... then it’s better to make it SMALL - ON THE HEAD ... and wear it slightly tilted back (that is, without pushing it over your forehead).

The knitting principle is small low hat- exactly the same as that of a high cap-cap ... It’s just that here the FRONT PART of the knitted fabric will not be so long ... that is, we’ll move on to the TOP PART with its loop-reducing rows early.

Knitted hats - WITH EARS.

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

HAT WITH EARS №2 (light gray in the photo above) - we knit a hat in the form of a pipe - without reducing the loops at the crown, and then just close the loops and sew the front and back of the hat together in a straight line. T about there, the top of the pipe was flattened (and this flattened edge was sewn together)

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 back) 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 sewn cap pipe, we make out the same eye, 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 knit with your own hands.

Knitted HATS with knitting needles - WITH BRAIDS.

LARGE RELIEF KNIT "BRAID" looks very nice on women's hats

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

Or you can make a longitudinal knitting of a hat - not from the forehead to the top of the head, but along the side line (along the girth of the head) - and then our braids will be horizontal left to right - like on the gray hat from the photo below.

KNITTED HATS -

With lapels and FIELDS.

Fashionable hats with fields- reminiscent of elegant hats - so feminine, ideal for 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 blanks of felt fields are cut out ... and inserted inside the fields folded in half (like a bookmark in a book). This is exactly what is done on the knitted hat from the photo below.

Here, 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 you knit a hat ... Then you cut it out of felt a figure resembling a bagel (a 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 the hat.

Step 2 (knitting )

Then on the needles we will knit DIRECT (rectangular fabric gum pattern).

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

The length of the canvas should be twice as wide as the thickness of the donut - to wrap the bagel around it from below and above (since the knitted fields at the cap go both above and below) ... That is, we knit the fabric and from time to time try it on to the width of the cut out donut - we wrap the barrel of the donut from the bottom and top sides and see how many more rows are missing ... we knit to the desired length.

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

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

And then along the edge of the same seam we sew our finished fields to the finished hat. And that's it. You can now crochet a beautiful fluffy flower and add it to the side of your hat.

Another way to make fields on a knitted hat.

And in the fashionable model of a light beige hat (from the photo below) - the fields are formed by themselves when bent in half knitted classic elastic band (one front, one purl). it's easy to do it by hand.

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

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

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

And here is a hat with WIDE lapels-brims .

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

Such a hat must be knitted starting from the back of the head... that is, from top to bottom (since it will be convenient to adjust the scope of the fields ... and in which case, it will be convenient to dissolve them and knit again ....

A simple knitting pattern for this WIDE TWO-COLOR BRIM HAT…

1. Knitting this black hat with white fields - 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 so long that it covers the head from the crown to the forehead.
2. We turn to white threads - and sharply expanding 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 a mirror to decide whether such a width of the fields was enough for us). It was we who tied the white side of the fields (the one that is visible in the photo).
3. We change the threads to black ones and knit the Narrowing 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 lapel of the fields (dark) which is not visible, hidden-turned away in the photo.
4. It turns out a design in the form of ... first a narrow black pipe .... then an expanding white part... and then a narrowing black part.
5. At the widest point of the canvas(where the white turns into black again) we bend the canvas in half (we folded the fields of the cap in half ... And we sew this addition-we fasten it with threads - we fix this double sandwich of fields.
6. And then only remains sew the top crown seam of the cap - fold it with an envelope as seen in the photo and secure 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 DOUBLE - without this they will turn out to be dense and upright .

(If suddenly it was unclear explained - 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 brim - crochet.

And here is a MULTI-COLORED hat, which is crocheted. Crochet fields are generally easy to knit. There is no need to be smart here - know, drive the columns in a circle, sharply adding their number in the fields.

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

KNITTED HATS -

WITH SOFT VALVES.

The fields of a knitted hat can be soft and easy to turn away to the hat... then we have an elegant lapel on a knitted cap.

Here in the photo below we see an example of how a ONE-SIDE SIDE lapel is made.
How exactly it is made, I think everyone understands.

knitting first top of the cap... And then we knit the lapel part itself as a separate long canvas on knitting needles (similar to a scarf). There is only one pattern - both from the front and from the wrong side we knit all the time one face loop... we get a ribbed pattern (it is thanks to this ribbed pattern that our fields keep their shape well).

Buttonholes are not required- just sew the edges of the canvas overlapping each other ... and sew on buttons for decoration.

Here is the front opening . The hat is knitted on two needles (without elastic) so that the fabric itself is wrapped up with a beautiful roll up. The pattern looks like RICE...

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

Hat with cuffs - soft angora.

And here is another fashionable hat - in it we see a non-standard circular knit - 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 in the shape of a trapezoid)... which is then sewn into a hat (if suddenly something extra is connected) you can always correct it with scissors (roughly) and close the cut with threads.

To be sure, we can first do Trial 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.

And even better... tie such a hat ONE SIZE BIGGER ... and therefore DECREASE-DOWN it (like a felt boot) in hot water (40 degrees) in a washing machine ... The knitting will immediately become very dense - the hat will become denser and one size smaller.

MORE ABOUT THE RULES OF FELTING I will tell you right now using the example of the following two hats.

HATS KNITTED WITH lapels - dried.

See what fashionable dried hats you can knit on knitting needles ... and dump 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, as if made of soft felt fabric.

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

A detailed description of the dumped hats from the photo above.

(gray and red hat).

Characteristics of the material and product.

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 fields).

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 should match the following:

Knitting density before felting: 10 x 10 cm = 16 sts and 22 rows

Knitting density 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 shown above.

In order not to peer into the small print and encrypted abbreviations, I decided to paint step by step and in rows the whole knitting process and hat assembly.

STEP 1 - knit the main part of the brim of the hat.

We start knitting from the fields - that is, we collect 124 loops on circular knitting needles and knit circular rows with the front stitch. 20 rows in a circle. And we get the straight 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 in the pattern from the diagram below.

STEP 2 - start changing the shape of the fields

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

At a height of 9 cm (= after 20 circular rows) we knit short rows- every other 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 it is done, and understand how it will look.

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

And in this back way we do 1 yarn over on the right needle And knit the 22nd row – the same reduced by the number of 114 loops, but already on the wrong side. We knit this amount to the end and turn our knitting back to the front side to knit the next 23rd row. Here's what it looks like in a picture (I hope I made it clear).

On this front side and knit 23rd front row- but we also do not knit all 114 loops - but again we turn the knitting without reaching 10 loops to the end. That is, in the 23rd row we must knit 104 front loops. And turn to the wrong side - to knit on it 24th row - 104 purl loops (before each purl row, do not forget to make 1 yarn over on the right knitting needle). And we turn back to the front side.

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

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

This 29th row we also reduce by 10 loops - that is, we only knit 74 front loops, and turn the knitting on the reverse wrong 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 front loops. Turn inside out - knit 32 row - 64 purl loops. We return to the front side.

This 33 row 54 front loops 34th row - 54 wrong loops. Expand to the front.

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

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

This 39 row- we reduce the knitting by 10 loops for the last time - we knit only 24 front loops. Turn inside out and knit 40th row - 24 purl loops. And after that, we turn the knitting with the front side towards us for the last time. This was the last short row. We are back on the front side.

And now we can continue our usual 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 knitting needles, already connected fields hang from the knitting needles (on one side of the circle, the fields are wider 40 rows high, on the other hand, 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 seal the transition from the brim to the dome of the hat. To do this, we knit each loop in together with a crochet.

Here is one way to close the loops - with a hook.

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

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

Now we stopped and marked every 14th loop on our knitting (you can pass 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 noted 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 knitting needles.

Next, we knit like this.
In every 4 rows - repeat the decrease(we knit the loop marked with a ribbon together with the previous loop). Doing so 3 times. (That is, 3 rows are simple, 4 we decrease - 3 rows are simple, 4 we decrease and 3 more rows are simply 4 we decrease - three such calls). As a result, we have left 80 stitches on needles.

Now let's get stronger.

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

And now we come to the end of knitting.

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

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

STEP 4 - we roll the hat

in the washing machine

+ form its final form.

And here is a detailed description of how such hats knitted from wool can be DOWN IN THE WASHING MACHINE ...

1. We place a hat in a laundry bag.
2. Fall asleep in the washing machine colored laundry detergent. DO NOT add fabric softener or detergent for woollens.
3. Choose mode - delicate wash(it is with a large flow of water - we need this). Mode for washing wool is NOT NECESSARY.
4. Setting the temperature 40 degrees.
5. Best with a hat in the car shove something rough(like jees or towels) - to create additional friction.
6. We start washing - as a result of which the product will decrease by 1/3 (i.e. 30%) After that, we take it out - wring it out and wet it PULL-STRETCH to the size of your head ... (so that she remembers this shape) ...
7. and then we put it on a BLUE where it will dry. It is, of course, understandable that you do not have hat blanks in your household - n oh you can find a replacement for her- for example, a suitable-sized children's ball 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 like that until completely dry.
8. After you have pulled the hat onto the blank, you must level its fields - stretch the fields so that on one side they are 9 cm, and on the other 15 cm.
9. AND UNTIL THE HAT IS DRY, we do its styling. .

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

Gray hat styling: Align the margins (by 9 cm and by 15 cm). Turn the fields up (both the short and long sides. Take the edge of the short field turned up and turn its half down. Stab this place with a hat pin (buckle + wand).

Friends, hello everyone!
Summer is coming to an end, which means that cold days will soon come and we will need hats.
Fashion is now so democratic that hats can be knitted from anything. And wear it with just about anything.
I have been knitting hats for many years, from twenty to fifty pieces per season. Men's and women's, children's and adults, woolen and cotton.
I knit not only for my family, but also to order.
And this year I started writing descriptions for hats that I myself come up with.

I often hear: “Oh, why knit a hat! Two hours and you're done!"
However, this is not the case. I personally know many knitters who master the art of jacquard, intarsia, knit Irish lace, but do not take on hats.
This is not such a simple task as it might seem at first glance.
In this article, I will share some tips for knitting hats.
So, today we’ll talk about knitting hats according to descriptions.
It would seem, what is easier, bought a description and knit yourself. But the result is not always positive. Often, disappointed in the associated product, the author of the description is blamed for everything.
To avoid disappointment, you need to follow some rules.
You liked the model and shape of the hat, you want the same for yourself, you need to conduct very thorough preparation.
1. Studying the model.
- take a close look at the photo
- pay attention to the size of the loops, the general appearance of the loops (tight / loose)
– general view of the product, the shape of the crown (elongated / round)
- the principle of knitting (in a circle / turning rows) with a seam, without a seam
2. Choice of yarn.
- if you did not find the original yarn stated in the description, select a similar one in composition, weight, footage.
- it is better to choose 2-3 types of yarn of different colors.
- for hats with aran, the yarn should not be too soft and loose
3. Working with samples.
- knit samples from the yarn of your choice on the knitting needles indicated in the description.
Some knitters neglect patterns, but in vain. It is better to practice understanding the pattern and the behavior of the thread on a small number of loops than to unravel or throw in the trash a few days of your life.
— carry out the WTO of all samples;
- compare your density with that stated in the description;
- pay special attention to the height of the sample, the height of the entire cap depends on this measurement;
- not only yarn, but also knitting needles help to choose the right density;
- changing the number of spokes by 0.25, / 05 of the size can give the correct parameters;
- check the elasticity / elasticity / color fastness of the yarn on your samples;
- evaluate the combination of patterns on yarn of various colors;
- Determine what changes you make and where, write them down for yourself.
- think about how the hat will fit into your wardrobe, with what and where you will wear it;
- make the final choice of yarn and .... leave the beginning of work for the day.
4. Knitting process.
Give yourself time to think a little more and to dampen your emotional desire a little.
In a day, look again at all the preliminary work and if you don’t change your mind, start knitting.
- if your hat is knitted with a seam, leave a long (about 70 cm) end of the thread for further stitching of the hat;
- when knitting a hat in a circle, try on a hat every 10-15 rows to clarify the fit on the head;
- when knitting a hat with a seam, sweep it for trying on every 10-20 rows;
- refer to the photo of the original when knitting;
- if the thread stretches strongly, it is better to wash the hat in the process of knitting;
- take a picture of a hat in the process of knitting on your head, a look from the screen can be very useful!
- tighten the loops of the crown very tightly to avoid a hole, sew a few loops and hide the thread.
- before the final stitching of the hats, first sweep it;
- for the final connection, use the mattress stitch, the thread left at the beginning of knitting.
5. Completion of work.
- after tying the hat, soak it in a special product for 30-40 minutes
- Rinse the cap well
- put the hat in the middle of the towel, squeeze lightly.
- dry the hat in the unfolded form, putting a dry towel inside until it is partially dry.
- until completely dry, it is better to dry the hat on a mannequin, carefully monitor so that it does not deform and does not stretch unnecessarily.
- hats tied with an elastic band to dry only unfolded.

Do all the preliminary work, knit and wear a new hat with joy!

I really hope that my advice will be useful to you. I will be happy to answer questions and comments.
