KNITTING FOR NEWBORNS CROCHET AND KNITTING STEP BY STEP WITH THE VIDEO

Today the range of children's clothes is very diverse. But young mothers prefer high-quality and exclusive clothes for their baby from the first days of life. This, of course, helps knitting.

Main nuances

When knitting clothes, babies need to consider some requirements and tips.

Requirements: children's clothes bound by their own hands should be not only beautiful and fashionable, but also practical, comfortable and safe.

In order for a child’s wardrobe to be so, one should carefully select the yarn, fasteners and accessories, model the shape of the product.

How to get started:

With a choice of style. It is better to choose for kids models without rubber bands, it is possible on straps or overalls. The style should be convenient for changing clothes, preferably on clasps.
With the purchase of yarn. Threads should be soft, non-allergenic, without excess hairiness, stiffness, withstand frequent washing. It is also necessary to determine the amount of yarn.
With clarifying the size of the child. It is advisable for the baby to knit loose clothing for growth.

You should also consider some subtleties when working:

When knitting newborn crumbs, you need to make a choice in the direction of the yarn from cotton and knitwear, and in the winter - from wool and acrylic.
It is recommended to wash the yarn first, as it may shrink.
Consider the thickness of the thread and the size of the needles, otherwise knitting may turn out to be coarse or loose.
Use simple patterns in knitting, as the volume patterns can interfere.
Correctly sew the parts of the product so that there is no rubbing.
Children's knitted clothes before dressing need to wash, steam.

We present to your attention a few ideas for knitting newborn babies.

Knit booties and crochet

What can be more pleasant than warm, gentle bootees for infant legs. There are many options for their knitting.

Knitting needles

Required material for work: 30-50 grams of children's melange or one-color yarn, hosiery needles No. 3.5, drawstring.

Pinetochki knit from the sole and shoe (foot length - 10 cm):

Base sole - 5 loops. We begin to knit facial loops, inside out - purl.
From the 2nd to 5th row we add 2 loops from two ends. As a result, it becomes 13 loops.
Hosiering is performed from the 6th to the 18th.
19 row - repeat 5 row.
21st row - repeat the 19th.
It becomes 17 loops.
From the 22nd to the 27th - stockings.
The 28th row - we reduce from 2 ends to 2 loops, it should remain 15.
29th row - repeat the 28th (13 loops).
30th row - decrease 4 loops (2 at the beginning and 2 at the end), 9 remain.
31st row - repeat the 30th (5 loops).
The remaining 5 loops are closing.
For the shoe dial 70 + 2 (edge) loops.
The first 6 rows are made viscous garter. Then knit another 8 rows of stocking.
Next, the canvas is divided into 3 working parts: 1st and 3rd (2 sidewalls) - 28 loops each, 2nd (front) - 14 loops (28 + 14 + 28 = 70).
From the 15th to the 42nd - we continue stocking knitting, diminishing in each row along the loop in the same way: in the front row we knit the 1st part of the canvas (28) and the 2nd incomplete part (only 13), we perform the 14th loop together with the 1st loop of the 3rd part (1 and 27). On the reverse side, we do the same: 27 + 13 + 1 (2) +27 loops, and we knit the 14th and 15th with the 1st inside. The second part (front) remains unchanged (14).
The result is 14 × 14 × 14 loops.
From the 43rd to the 50th - stocking knitting.
51st - lace knit (2 loops together and nakid) for lace-strings.
52nd knit inside out.
From 53rd to 62nd - stocking.
63rd-repeat 51st.
64th - repeat the 52nd.
From the 65th to the 70th, we repeat the 53-62 rows, complete the work, close the loops.

Sew the shoe, connecting the sidewalls, combine with the sole (crochet). In the holes of the row with openwork we pass the drawstring. On the second leg knit in a similar way. Shoes can be decorated with bows, crocheted ears, eyes, animal figures.

Crochet

For work you will need: 30-50 grams of special yarn for children, buttons - 2 pieces, hook №3.

Knit crochet 12 air loops.

Legend:

+ - column without nakida;
- double crochet;
V - 2 double crochet in 1 loop of the previous row;
| / - 3 double crochet stitches.

Nose section

To form an angle between the upper part of the booties and the sole, we knit with a “convex” column without a single crochet, the number of columns (54) is not changed. 6 rows knit in a similar way. In the 7th row the canvas is divided into parts: 1 - lateral (longer), 2 - for the heel, 3 - lateral, 4 - for the toe. The 2nd part (heel) is left unchanged.

We continue knitting on the 4th part (sock) - 10 columns with three nakida, we also knit 1 and 3 (lateral) parts of the bootees with a column without nakida. Expand the product. The 8th row consists of 8 columns with 2 nakida and 1 - without nakida. Cloth unfold. In the 9th row we perform 6 columns with 2 nakida, 1 - without nakida, then 4 columns with 2 nakida and 1 column without nakida.

Thong and heel

From the same thread, we collect 15 air loops from the same place where we finished the 4th (sock) part of the bootie. Return back - a column without nakida, knit the 2nd part (heel). The same viscous perform the following 2 rows, 1 row - with a crochet. At the end we make a hole for the buttons with one air loop, the last row is a column with no crochet.

On the other leg, a strap with a loop is naturally determined on the mirror side. Buttons sew.

If you want to make a more interesting option for the girl, you can sheathe the edge of the bootie with a lace or a bow, doing the assembly, or add a lace edge.

Hat for a newborn knitting needles

Required material: 100 grams of Baby Cotton (50% cotton) and the same amount of acrylic, hosiery spokes No. 2.5.

Instruction:

On the spokes we collect 88 loops (with a child’s head circumference of 32-34 cm).
Distribute the loop on the 4 spokes on the 22 loop.
8 laps knit gum 1 × 1.
The next 16 laps continue facial smooth.
On each spoke we uniformly mark 1 loop (1 → 1 → 1 → 1 → = 4) - to decrease the loops.
In each second circle in front of the marked loop we combine 2 loops in one loop with an inclination to the left. After the marked loop of the front we combine 2 loops into one.
As a result, there are 8 loops left, we tighten them with a working thread.
We make a pompon with a radius of 2.5 cm, sew on the top of the cap. If desired, you can sew appliqué.

Jumpsuit with zip for boy

Material for work: 200 grams of baby yarn of any color, knitting needles, zipper 25 cm.

Trousers:

On the needles we collect 50 loops.
Up to the 8th row we knit a 2 × 2 gum.
From the 9th to the 46th - a garter stitch.
Then we cut off the tip of the thread.
The next step is to knit the second leg in the same way.

Front and back:

Combine the two leg overalls. We leave the thread for further binding. We are determined with the front and back of the product.
Jumpsuit continue to knit with the edge of one of the legs, smoothly connecting them together.
From the 1st to the 66th row - we perform a garter stitch to the armhole.
We complete the basic pattern with 23 loops, close 4 loops, then - 46 back loops, another 4 loops close, 23 loops - garter stitch.
Separately knit shelf. We unfold the canvas, 20 loops are performed by the main knitting, 2 loops are joined, the other loop is determined by the edge loop, the shelf is unfold. Next, we knit a purse row, do the last decrease for a thorough formation of the armhole.
We knit up to the neck of the product, make cuts from the edge of the clasp. We carry out another shelf in a similar way.

Sleeves:

For knitting sleeves type 50 loops.
From the 1st to the 8th row - we perform 2 × 2 gum.
From the 9th to the 42nd is a garter stitch.
We make closing 4 loops on both sides, knit 3 rows and finish the sleeve. Parts of the product sew together with a needle (you can hook).
The final stage - neck knitting. To do this, we gather loops from the edge of the jumpsuit and perform the gum of rows in 8. Finally, sew a 25 cm zipper.

Crochet overalls for girls

For the work you will need: 250 grams of baby pink yarn, 50 grams of melange yarn for edging, hook No. 3.5, small buttons - 15 pieces.

The model is crocheted, buttons-clasps go from top to bottom, so that it is convenient to dress and undress the baby.

Heels and booties:

Knitting will begin with "heels" overalls. Knit knit heels according to the scheme using double crochets.
Next, we knit booties. Knit a row of "convex" double crochet. Next for the toe we tie on one side 14 crochets, then we tie all 28 loops in the same way.

Rear part:

From the heel we begin to knit the trouser legs with a column with 1 double bow - 14 loops. Then every 2 rows 5 times from both ends, add the loop (1). We get 24 loops. When we knit up to a length of 17 cm, we begin to connect the loops of the two legs, picking up 3 loops between them (51).

Further every 4 rows, 4 times we reduce 1 loop from both sides (43). From the legs go up 24 cm and begin to close for the armholes with 3 loops at both ends (37) and move another 10 cm. The back end is ready.

Right and left front:

Work continues from the right leg, in the work of 14 eyelets. Every 2 rows from two ends, we dial a semi-column with 1 double bow (24) on the loop 5 times. When we reach 17 cm, we begin to decrease every 4 rows from the side 4 times along the loop (43).

At the appropriate length of the product, we work on the armhole - we close 3 loops, and after 5 cm we will work on the neck, closing 4 loops in each row and 1 loop 3 and 2 times. The right (left) front part is finished at a length of 17 + 24 + 5 + 5 = 51 cm.

Sleeves:

For the sleeve, we collect 26 air loops and continue to work with a 1-nakida semi-column. Every 5 rows add 3 times 1 loop on both sides. Then knit without increments another 4 rows. When there will be 22 cm of the total length of the sleeve, close the loop.

Sew the side seams of the product and sew the sleeves. We do not sew the legs together, there will be a zipper.

Hood:

Hood knit this method: on the edge of the neck of the product, we collect all the loops and begin to knit with semi-columns with a crochet. Perform additions on a loop (1) in the middle of each 2nd row. Knit 15 cm and finish.

All edges of the product (hood, sleeves, buckles) are tied in 2 rows with a melange yarn with a single crochet column.

At the end we sew on buttons - 5 pieces in the upper part of the product, the remaining 10 (5 each) on the legs. We make hinged loops for each button.

Of course, these two versions of the models of overalls are suitable for both girls and boys. The main task is to choose the right color of yarn.

Making a warm hat with ears knitting

Required material: children's woolen yarn 100 grams, circular needles No. 3, straight needles No. 3, pin, needle, button.

The model is designed for a child's head circumference of 32-34 cm.

Working process:

We start knitting with ears of a cap. On the straight needles dial 6 loops.
From the 1st to the 10th - a garter stitch, only in the 4th row we make a hole for the buttons - in the middle we collect 1 nakid and knit the front 2 loops together.
So we begin to add loops (1 → 2 face) at the two ends of each row, until we get 20 loops.
We knit 14 more rows. Now remove the loop on the pin, cut the thread.
The second eyelet is performed in the same way, but without a buttonhole.
On circular knitting needles we type 96 loops in this way: type 11 loops + 20 loops, knit the already finished left eyelet, type 34 loops +20 loops, knit the right ear, once again −11 loops (11 + 20 + 34 + 20 + 11 = 96 ).
12 rows continue garter viscous.

Stocking knit perform the following 26 loops.

In every odd number we make a decrease;

1 row - 1 front - 2 loops, 6 front - and so alternate 12 times (2 → 1, 6 × 12 = 84);
3 - 2→ 1, 5 ×12 = 72;
5 - 2 → 1, 4 ×12 = 60;
7 - 2 →1, 3 ×12 = 48;
9 - 2→1, 2 ×12 = 36;
11 - 2 → 1, 1 ×12 = 24;
13 - 2 → 1 ×12 = 12;
15 - we cut the thread about 10 cm, stretch the remaining loops through it, pull it to the wrong side, fasten it.

On the left ear we sew a button. Instead of a button you can make strings, only then we do not knit a loop, and we make ears of a warm hat on knitted laces. It is possible to decorate our knitted product with appliqué, buttons, bows.

Selected choices of knitted things for babies will be easy to perform, even for novice knitting enthusiasts.
