So, we proceed to knitting like almost the fur coat.
You will need : Thick bulk yarn 1.5-2 kg. (Options: Lanagold 800 in 4 Threads, Lanagold Fij, Angora Real, Angora Gold, Angora Ram, etc.), Spokes number 5.5 or 6 (Better round, but you can and directly).
Scheme . The canvas knit the drawing "Asian spikelets", study here:
.Our spikelet will consist of two "grains": the first looks down, the second goes up. Between the grains to lie on 4 rows of facial stroke!
For small sizes, I recommend spikelet 6/12 (6 loops on 12 rows), for medium sizes: 8/14, for large - 8/16.
Attention: For spikelets 8/14 (16) Kitten 4 loops, pick up not 3 (as on video), and 4 loops. The first loop is removed as the edge.
Pattern Knitting is vertically: from the collar through a carcass to the second collar.
In total, you will need to tie 9 full spikelets for a carcass, knit that can be like a solid web and separate parts (after stitching they will not give the product too stretching down). The choice is yours! Also on 2 spikelets for sleeves.
Description. Knit a sample and calculate the number of loops for a set.
Average data: collar - 27 spikes -112 loops (my - 28 - 122 loops)
Shelf / back - 24 spikes - 100 loops (my 25 - 104 loops)
Prumum - 17 spikes - 72 loops (mine - 18 - 76 loops)
The sleeve is an outdoor - 20 spikes - 84 loops, internal - 14 spikes - 60 loops.
The collar at the end is stitched in half. You can knit it separately from the carcass, then sew, folding twice.
Gradient For such a cardigan, the next set of loops is offered: half the loops are typing by the bottom, the second half - the top. I eased my life and accused the first rows of the thread of the same color, since the collar will be intake and the set row will not be visible.
It looks good as a gradient of two shades of the same color, then you can knit half (or a little less / more) spikelets in one color, and the rest are different, without stirring the threads among themselves.
The easiest way to knit a gradient is to do with an invalid.
Here is a photo of the user Soja. With Osinka
The broach is made very neatly, immediately see how good the gradient is well associated with each color separately.
I knit without a broger as follows: When we tried 14 rows of spikes (8/14) and we last the last time, these 8 loops ... Here I knit only 4 loops, then thread that I will not use anymore (this is yellow) - I postpone! And I knit the remaining 4 loops only with 2 threads (I knit in 3 additions).
Then I get another 4 loops for a new spikelet, while picking up the thread from the previous row (which was then postponed then). In the work again 3 threads, while the transition was made.
When all spikelets are connected, you can assign a face-to-heading of the spacing line of the shoulder line and sleeves to face.
Then it remains to sew side and shoulder seams, sew the sleeve and cardigan!
Attention According to the sample, it is not always possible to correctly define the number of loops (since, under your own not small weight, the cloth stretches down and calculate this stretching is difficult). I have so happened. Then I knew the missing spikes separately and gently laid up to the already existing one, since it is a collar and it will be in half, then the crosslinking place will not be noticeable!My knitting: rented yarn in 9 addiction (1600/100), knitting needles 6.
Knitting spikes begins on top, so knit upper color (who has a gradient)
Having reached to the end - knit 4 rows of facial stuff, then knitting goes from bottom to top (by the invalid side)!
And closer
General view of half of the product
This is how it looks in the process: there is already a promise.
The weight of the carcass was 700 grams.
This is how it looks in the product.
And holes are closer
The spikelets pulled up - the needle went down (until the middle of the product only) and backward up so that it was not very noticeable. In this inside, nothing can be seen, outside the threads can be seen.
She sewed the shoulder seams, the middle of the collar, the collar sewed to the back.
Then scored loops for sleeves. ATTENTION: Sleeves in many girls turned out to be (with all the calculations and finished carcasses) on 1 spikelers in short, what would I like, so consider their effect.
I tied one sleeve, but it seemed to me strongly narrow, it was necessary to knit 8/16. The strength did not have enough strength and I decided to make a vest, especially since I understood - my yarn is not for this cardigan.
Crochet rided the armor, the sewing collar did not become.
