The tunic is very practical and comfortable to wear.This is not a sweater or a dress, but something in between. If you create such a tunic with your own hands, all your friends and not only will pay attention to you, wherever you are, be it a simple trip to the store or going out to "people". A tunic knitted on knitting needles gives your look a special chic and an unforgettable effect. It will warm you up perfectly on a cool spring day.The variety of tunics depends on the yarn chosen andpattern, which you will knit. Famous fashion designers and ordinary needlewomen choose a tunic, because of its versatility. Different shapes will help to hide the flaws of the figure and, on the contrary, emphasize its advantages, the main thing is to choose the right model of the tunic. Yarn should be chosen from natural fibers with a small addition of artificial thread. This can be wool with acrylic or another combination of fibers. The color palette is varied, for everyday wear it is worth taking dark colors, and for an elegant tunic light and bright.For example, to create a fitted tunicYou will need 800 grams of yarn (wool 64%, silk 27%, polyamide 9%), circular knitting needles No. 6.5, and additional knitting needles. Cast on 216 stitches on circular knitting needles, knit two rows with purl stitch, then three rows with front stitch.We knit the next row with an openwork pattern,repeating the rapport of eighteen loops twelve times. From the fifteenth rapport, knit all the front loops, decreasing (knitting two loops together). To knit the belt, knit two rows of purl and one circle of front surface. Then knit the next fourteen rows with a rib pattern. Continue knitting the back and the front part separately. For the back, cast on one edge loop, 88 purl, one edge, you get 90 loops. The next row, knit all the loops purl and add ten loops (evenly), you should get 100 loops. Then knit 20 loops with a large pearl pattern, 18 loops with a braid pattern, 22 loops with a rib pattern, 18 loops with a braid pattern, 20 loops with a large pearl pattern.To get side bevels, addone loop on both sides in every sixth row six times (we make an increase in large pearl knitting), close the armholes after 1 cm. After 36 cm, the neckline for the head - close the central 38 loops. Knit the sleeves with openwork knitting: edge loop, repeat from 18 loops five times, one edge loop. At a height of twenty cm, having finished the sixteenth row of the pattern, the next purl. We assemble all the parts. Here is your wonderful fitted tunic and it is ready. Let it become an integral part of your everyday wardrobe. Wear it with pleasure!
