Women's pullover knitted. Patterns and description, models, master class

A women's pullover with knitting needles can be easily made in different models. Each of them will differ not only in the pattern, but also in the description of the work. The product goes well with any style and allows you to create new fashionable combinations of clothes.

What yarn is best for knitting a pullover with knitting needles

When planning to knit a new thing, you need to clearly know what the parameters of the finished product should be. The choice of yarn depends on this.

Women's pullover can be made:

• for warm or cold seasons;
• as an addition to an existing suit;
• in the form of decorative design of the image;
• as an everyday or festive item of clothing.

Natural thread is considered the best option for any occasion. However, modern manufacturers offer a line of high-quality yarn made from synthetic materials.

Therefore, the main criterion in choosing will be the type of product and its quality characteristics:

• The thread for a winter pullover should be soft and retain heat well. It is recommended to take thick uniform yarn or knit with thinner thread, but in 2-3 folds. Natural wool or mixed yarn will work well;
• The material for a summer pullover should be hygroscopic, breathable, resistant to fading and pleasant to the touch. Cotton or viscose meet these requirements best.

An analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each material will help you choose the right yarn for a knitted pullover:

• natural wool. Made from animal hair. Disadvantages include the ability to feel or stretch during wear, as well as damage by moths. Adding synthetic thread allows you to avoid this.

Thick 100% wool is suitable for knitting relief patterns, thin wool is good for drapery. Merino thread is softer and more delicate, recommended for sensitive skin.

Mohair - fluffy, usually produced in a mixture with acrylic, synthetics or sheep wool. For an everyday pullover, it is recommended to take mixed yarn, for example, 50% wool and 50% acrylic;

• cotton. This is the best yarn for a summer pullover. Plant fibers absorb moisture well, do not cause allergies, and "breathe" well. The disadvantages include the lack of elasticity, but at the same time the product stretches and wrinkles a lot.

Dyed thread may shed. Among the most suitable for knitting a pullover are "mercerized" cotton, "iris", flax, viscose;

• acrylic. Modern acrylic thread is produced in excellent quality, so in a knitted pullover it will look like wool. Among the advantages - no shrinkage after washing, not damaged by moths. Of the disadvantages - the thing can become electrified and will be less warm than when knitted from natural fibers.

In addition to the above types, you should pay attention to silk yarn and bamboo. They will make a great summer pullover.

Measurements before knitting

A women's pullover with knitting needles, the patterns and description of which may differ, can be made in a few days. It should sit well on the figure. To do this, you need to take measurements and build a pattern for the model.

You will need to prepare the following tools:

• measuring tape;
• paper;
• pencil or pen.

Main parameters:

Name of the measurement	Abbreviated designation	Rules of measurement
Neck circumference or girth	OSH	The ribbon should be wrapped around the neck and tied at the dimple in the front.
Chest circumference or girth	OG	You need to place the tape horizontally at the level of the armpits, wrap it around the body, capturing the highest points of the chest, and connect.
Waist circumference	FROM	You need to gird your waist with a centimeter tape.
Hip circumference	ABOUT	Measure at the desired length of the pullover, wrapping the tape around your hips without tension.
Arm circumference	OR	You will need to take 2 measurements. One at armpit level, the second at the thinnest point of the wrist.
Back width	SHS	The measurement must be taken twice - from shoulder to shoulder + from armpit to armpit, then both values ​​must be added together and the result divided by 2.
Shoulder length	DP	It is necessary to measure the distance from the base of the neck to the shoulder joint.
Sleeve length	DR	You need to lower your arm and measure the length of the sleeve from the shoulder joint to the required lower point.
Back length	DS	You need to measure the distance from the 7th cervical vertebra to the waist level.
Length of product	DI	Place the tape between the 7th cervical vertebra and the desired length of the pullover.

The permissible measurement error is 0.5 cm. In this case, the fit of the pullover will be ideal.

Calculation of the amount of yarn, selection of knitting needles

There are several ways to calculate the required number of skeins of yarn:

• knitting the control fragment. The method is time-consuming, but its main advantage is the accuracy of the calculation. You need to take the selected yarn and knit a sample with the pattern that the pullover will be made with. Then you should close the loops and wash.

The sample must be dried, carefully steamed and weighed on kitchen scales (sample weight = WS). Additionally, you will need to calculate the sample area (SA) and the pattern area (PA). Then you need to use the proportion formula to calculate the yarn weight (YW). YW = (PW x WS) : WS;

• yarn calculator - is a special calculation tool. To obtain the result, the following data is needed - the size of the pullover, the density and weight of the yarn;
• using ready-made tables.

The best option for choosing a tool is the yarn manufacturer's recommendations on the skein label.

Additional nuances:

• you need to take the thread that you have chosen for knitting the pullover, fold it into 2 layers and twist it a little. The ideal size of the knitting needles will be equal to this thickness;
• for mohair or down yarn, you need to take knitting needles 1-2 mm thicker than the thread;
• when knitting a braid pattern, you should use a tool 0.5 mm thicker than recommended by the yarn manufacturer;
• It is recommended to knit seamless pullover models with knitting needles on a fishing line or cable.

To knit the pieces, you need to prepare another pair of knitting needles one size smaller.

Construction of a pattern for knitting parts

A women's pullover with knitting needles, the patterns and description of which have already been selected, should be started with the construction of a pattern. In order for the pattern to be convenient to work with, it is recommended to make a drawing in full size.

To construct the simplest pattern you will need to prepare:

• ruler;
• sheets of white paper – 3 pcs.;
• calculator;
• school rubber band;
• pencil.

Construction algorithm:

• On one sheet of paper, you need to draw a rectangle whose height will be equal to the measurement "length of the product". The width of the rectangle is equal to ½ the measurement "chest circumference". For example - DI = 56 cm, OG = 88 cm, ШС = 32 cm, ОШ = 33 cm, ОП = 18 cm, DR = 55 cm.

• Now you need to draw a vertical line in the center of the rectangle and calculate the depth of the pullover armhole. To do this, you need to subtract the value of the SS from 1/2 OG, divide the result by 2 (there are 2 armholes in the product). We get: (44 cm - 32 cm) : 2 = 6 cm.

• Calculating the armhole height. The OG measurement will need to be divided by 6 and add 5 cm. (88 cm: 6 + 5 cm = 19.5 cm. For ease of drawing, it is recommended to round the result to 19 cm.

• Now you need to remove the extra stripes and design the armholes with smooth lines.

• The construction of the neckline should begin with calculating the width of the collar on the back. It is equal to the value of the collar divided by 3. It turns out 33 cm : 3 = 11 cm. The shoulder line should be raised by 2 cm.

• Then you need to connect the dots with a smooth line and draw a new shoulder line.

• The pattern of the shelf can be made using the ready-made drawing of the back. To do this, you need to copy the drawing, fold it in half.

Then you should mark a point in the middle of the shelf below the shoulder level at the distance at which you plan to design the neckline. Now you need to connect the point with the shoulder bevel with a smooth line.

• To construct the sleeve pattern, draw a rectangle 55 cm high (DR measurement) and 32 cm wide. The width value must be calculated using the formula OG: 3 + 2 = 88 cm: 3 + 2 cm = 31.3 cm (round up to 32 cm).

• Mark the middle of the sleeve and put the armhole height on this line. Formula for calculation: OG: 8 + 3 cm. With the available data - 88 cm: 8 + 3 cm = 14 cm.

• The next step is to connect the extreme side points of the armhole with the center of the top of the sleeve using lines and mark their middle.

• Design on the sleeve of the lower line. From its center in both directions, set aside ½ of the distance equal to OZ + 2 cm. For the selected values ​​- 18 cm + 2 cm = 20 cm.

• Connect all the dots with smooth lines.

• If the model is made with a straight armhole, then constructing the pullover pattern will be easier.

In this case, there is no need to construct the armhole curves and sleeve cap.
