Such a knitting method as raglan is forgotten nowadays. But the method of knitting raglan from the neck has positive sides:1) the product has no seams; 2) the length of the product is easily adjusted;3) no need to waste time sewing together many parts. 4) you get a small number of thread ends.To knit a raglan garment fromneck, only circular knitting needles are used. To determine the number of loops needed, measure the circumference of the neck. To obtain the desired width of the back neck, calculate the distance between the top points of the back raglan lines. Then you need to multiply the resulting figure by the knitting density. The sleeve is a third of the back. When all the calculations are done, you need to add six loops to the corner loops (this number is always the same).After all the calculations, we cast on the circular needlesthe obtained number of loops. We knit simply, without closing the circle, since there is no front part. Usually the neck is knitted with straight and reverse rows. The first row is knitted with purl loops, in each next row we add ten loops. As follows: at the end and at the beginning, one loop and on both sides, two corner loops. When the product reaches the pit, you need to recount the loops. The front part has a lot more loops than the back, so it is worth picking up the loops, we close in a circle. Then we make additions only on the corner loops.It is worth taking knitting needles with a longer line, soas the number of loops increases. It is worth finishing the raglan line at a distance of five centimeters from the dimple. The front and back parts of the product are knitted in one piece, without seams.The yoke is knitted with openwork stitch (productstretches), so you need to try it on often to correct the mistake in time. Also, the raglan from the neck can be knitted with other patterns, not only with a satin stitch. For example, the "English false" is perfect for children's clothing, it will add volume to the products. It is also good to knit them with a strip, having allocated a place in advance for a fastener in the form of buttons or a zipper.In this case, the loops are calculated in the same way, onlyone of the sides is divided in half, here the strip will be knitted. This method of knitting allows you to avoid mistakes in counting loops, you can also make different models of products both whole (without seams) and with a strip for fasteners. This method, like knitting a raglan from the neck, is well suited for knitting jumpers, dresses, sweaters and other products that can be adjusted at any time.
