Operating procedure

Before connecting the cardigan with knitting needles, we will make a template, on which we will be guided. In this process, it is best to use the following density: 21 loops and 26 rows in a control pattern measuring 10 by 10 cm. Are your parameters different? Then make your calculations, although there is another method - we select the needles for a size larger or smaller to obtain the desired knot density. Also, choose in advance the model that will suit you, because there are loose and fitted, elongated and very short cardigans knitted with knitting needles. Schemes for various models can be found in any magazine for needlewomen.

The back of the product for 44 or 46 sizes is knit, starting with the creation of 108 loops and the dominant pattern. We close the gaps necessary for the armhole from the initial stage (70 cm). On both sides of the article we sew 5 loops through each row, 1 time - 4 loops, 1 time - 3 loops, next time - 2 loops and last time - 1 loop. Total will be 78 loops. When the cardigan knits with knitting needles, the bevels of the shoulders will be obtained if the hinges are closed at an interval of 90 cm. Also in every second row we sew three loops of four loops each. The cut at the neck of the back is obtained if you close the loops that are not involved.

A shelf for the right side will come out if you type 23 loops with a viscous dominant pattern. In the interval from the initial stage of knitting (70 cm), we close the loops of the wrong side of the article to create an armhole the same as on the back. We measure 90 cm from the initial stage of mating to get a bevel on the shoulder. Along with this, we close the underside of the product in every second row, once we make 4 loops and then again - two. Next we tie the other side in the same order as the right one.

To tie a cardigan with knitting needles is to correctly attach to the main product of the sleeve. Their knitting starts with 58 loops and continues with the weaving of the dominant pattern for the next 10 cm. After the addition of the hinge on all sides of the sleeve 3 times every 12 rows and 3 times every 14 rows along the loop. In total, there will be 70 loops on the spokes.

Oak on the sleeve is created at the mark from the initial knitting stage at a height of 45 cm by closing all sides of the product. For this we knit once three loops, after three times two loops, eight more times - one loop, three times make two loops and the last time - three loops. At this stage, the knitting of the cardigan's sleeve ends.

The pocket is formed by a set of 26 loops and the subsequent knitting of the dominant pattern - 10 cm. Also, we remove the elastic band 2 by 2 cm on the slats. After knitting cardigan knitting, creating two elements of the pocket.

The straps for the neck and back are made starting from 230 loops and then knitting up to 15 cm of the dominant pattern. The loop closes and the second bar is made.

Now we grind the side and shoulder sections with a sewing machine. We combine the elements of the sleeve inward with the face and we weal the elbow section. We stick the sleeve into the armhole of the product. Sew on the shelf pocket at a distance of 22 cm from the edge of the product. Sew the strap on the edges of the left and right shelves and, finally, on the neck of the back.

As you can see, knitting a cardigan with knitting needles is not so difficult. The result that can turn out is an exclusive thing, indispensable and the most beloved in your closet.
