How to tie an openwork summer cap for a newborn crochet, charts, description of work and photos of products
If you are preparing to become a mother, then for sureread a lot of literature on how to properly feed and bathe a baby, the quality of clothes for a baby and a lot of other information. Among all this flow, you probably came across notes that a newborn needs a bonnet. This item protects the baby's head from hypothermia or overheating, because the newborn does not have hair, which performs this function in adults. The bonnet will also serve to protect the fontanel and have a calming effect on the baby, because not long ago the child was in a tight and safe mother's tummy, and the bonnet will remind him of this. You can buy it or knit it with your own hands, showing even more care for your little miracle. Therefore, in this article we suggest crocheting a summer bonnet, but not a simple one, but an openwork one. Such a product will perform both protective and decorative functions at once - will serve as an additional decoration of the outfit on a walk.
For such a product, choose threads made of naturalraw materials. The best choice is yarn made of natural silk with wool added. After all, everyone knows the property of silk products to be cool in the heat and warm in the cold. Choose a hook in accordance with the thickness of the thread. Before you start knitting, you need to make a 10x10 sample with the pattern you are planning for the cap. It needs to be steamed, dried and a preliminary calculation of the loops needs to be made.
We will knit the cap from the top. It is a circle.
First row. In a ring of 6 ch, knit 3 ch.and 11 dc. Finish with 1 ss. Second row. It is necessary to double the number of loops, for this we knit 2 dc with one base into each loop of the row. Instead of the first dc, we, as usual, knit 3 ch.p.p. Finish with 1 ss. Third row. We knit doubled loops into every second dc of the previous row. Finish with 1 ss. Fourth row. Now we knit doubled loops into every third dc of the third row. Continue knitting according to the pattern until the bottom of the bonnet reaches the required diameter. Calculating the required value is very simple, just measure the circumference of the baby's head and divide the resulting number by 3.14. For babies from 1 to 6 months, the head circumference is from 36 to 44 cm, therefore, the diameter of the bottom will vary from 12 to 14 cm. After the bottom is knitted, we proceed without tearing the thread to knitting the cap in depth. At this stage, the fabric is divided, and we knit the rows "there and back". In one rapport there are 9 loops. The resulting cut will be located at the back. We will attach ties to it so that the cap fits well and tightly.The first row must be knitted through the back half loop.3 ch, 2 ch, skip 1 loop, 1 sc, 5 ch, skip 3 loops, 1 sc, knit the entire row with arches of 5 ch, securing them with sc in every 4th loop. 2nd row. 1 ch. Now we alternate, knit 9 tbsp with 2/n in one arch, and 1 tbsp in the next and so on to the end of the row. 3rd row. 4 ch, skip 1 loop, then knit 1 tbsp with 2/n + 1 ch 6 times, then another 1 tbsp with 2/n, *skip 3 loops and again knit 1 tbsp with 2/n + 1 ch 6 times, then another 1 tbsp. with 2/n*, continue from * to the end of the row, finish it with 1 dc with 2/n in 1 ch p.p. of the second row. Fourth row. 1 ch p.p., knit 5 arches of 3 ch, securing them with 1 sc in ch, connected between the dc with 2/n, then knit 5 arches in the next “fan” of dc with 2/n and ch between them. Finish the row. 1 sc, connected in the 4th ch p. of the third row. Fifth row. 3 ch p.p., 2 ch, now knit arches of 5 ch, securing them with sc in the second and fourth arches of 3 ch. of each “fan”. Finish with 2 ch and 1 dc. s/n in 1 ch.p.p. of the fourth row. Repeat from the 2nd to the 5th rows until the cap reaches the desired depth. Knit the last row as the fourth. Now we need to tie one row of st. s 2/n around the cap along the entire length of the cut. Now you can thread a ribbon into this row, which will serve as ties. Now we move on to the last row of the circle. Since we knitted the first lace row for the back half-loop, our front half-loop is free, and we need to knit 4 rows into it according to the lace pattern. Do not knit 1 rapport on the back of the head, i.e. we will get a flat part of the cap near the neck, so that it is comfortable for the baby. Now, if desired, you can tie the lace part along the edge with a contrasting thread or leave it in one color. All that remains is to wash and dry the cap.
