Warm hood: knitting pattern

The convenience of such a headdress, like a hood, can not be overestimated. This knitted product combines the functions of a hat and scarf, helps protect the most vulnerable places (face and neck) from wind and frost, and also keeps the hairstyle from deformation. The last point is important for many women and is the main motivation for making a decision about knitting cap.

Types of hoods

There are several varieties of this headgear:

• Short hood.
• Hood with a scarf.
• Bonnet.

Each of these species deserves attention, since it has its own purpose and specific features. Often the skilled workers apply a mixture of several techniques in order to tie the hood. Knitting pattern knitting in such cases includes a combination of solid or openwork patterns.

Simple hood-hood

This kind of headgear is extremely easy to knit. Its main part is based on a rectangle, sewn on one side.

An experienced knitter will make such a hood (knitting pattern can be absolutely any) literally in the evening. At the same time, for the master, who is just beginning to master knitting wisdom, this will serve as a good training.

The hood-cap for adults sometimes includes a wide lower bar that plays the role of a collar. It looks good decorative button in the form of buttons, placed on this part.

The knitting scheme of the hood-pipe with knitting needles can be chosen at the discretion of the wizard.

A pipe is a specific circular scarf that can be worn on the head. Its detail is also a rectangle bound in a circle or sewn with a single seam. Its width is usually about 70 cm, and the height should be at least 50 cm.

Scarf-cap with knitting needles: a knitting pattern

The most convenient and warm can be considered a hood, equipped with a long scarf, which can be wrapped around the neck. Such an article is better knit from a soft and thick yarn with a high content of wool, mohair or angora. However, you need to carefully test the pre-made sample so that the material does not cause allergies. This requirement is especially relevant when choosing a yarn for children's products.

There are two ways to make a scarf-cap. The knitting pattern must be solid and not contain openwork holes. The exception can be tolerated when knitting the lower, decorative edges of the scarf.

The first method of manufacturing a scarf-cape

1. The number of loops required for knitting 25-30 cm of cloth with the chosen pattern is gained on the spokes. Checking the scheme, the scarf is knitted to a height of at least 70 cm.
2. Then, on the one hand, hinges are taken (to get an additional 10 cm of cloth) and work with a new number of loops. The height of this expanded part should be twice the height of the hood (30 cm x 2 = 60 cm).
3. At the next stage, the previously removed loops are closed on the same side as before (from the right or from the left).
4. The remaining loops (25-30 cm) are knitted to the same height as the first end of the scarf.

If the pattern that the knitter chose for the cap, can not be used inverted, it is required to tie two pieces that mirror each other and then sew them together. In this case, the seam will be located on the top of the product.

There is a good simplified method, with which it is fairly easy to tie the hood. The knitting scheme is used to make a long wide fabric, which is then folded in half and stitched from the fold line by 25-30 cm. Its width can not be less than 30 cm, and the length is calculated as follows: the length of the two ends of the scarf (75 cm x 2) plus Double height of the hood (25-30 cm). Total about 2-2,1 m.

The second method of knitting a cape with a scarf

The next method consists in making two rectangles and their elementary stitching.

When using this method, the total length of the scarf should be at least 1.5 m, the height and width of the cap should be specified in the previous paragraph.

The advantage of this method is its simplicity and accessibility for beginners. In addition, various patterns with braids, such as this one, will be very appropriate here.

How to make a children's hood

The pictorial headpiece for children is based on a rectangle, sewn on one side. This principle greatly simplifies the knitting of the children's hood with knitting needles, the circuit is not required in this case, since a simple smooth surface is used. However, if you wish, the craftsman can use any pattern she likes.

Knitting process:

Dial 65 loops on the spokes.

1. 1 edge, 2 facial, 2 purlins, 60 facial, 2 purlins, 2 facial, 1 marginal (always purulent).
2. Face ranks to knit, like the first, purl - according to the drawing. Thus work at a height of 28 rows.
3. 1 edgeband, 2 facial, two purlins, repeat to the end of the row (so knit 8 rows).
4. Close the middle 60 loops of the canvas. Lateral 5 loops on one side and 5 on the other, continue to knit to a height of 15 cm (these are cap ties).

The resulting rectangle is stitched from behind. Ready hood can be completed with a decor or leave this kind.
