Try to tie a sweater for your child. Our master class contains a simple scheme that will be useful for beginners.

Knitting a sweater is a very exciting activity,and also, in my opinion, knitting helps to combine business with pleasure. For example, every evening we spend at least 2 hours in front of the TV. It seems to me that this time is wasted. But if you watch the same series and knit or craft something, then you can relax and do something useful. This is how I made a sweater for my beloved son, who is simply crazy about technology. So, I present to you my master class on knitting a sweater with a raglan sleeve for a 5-year-old boy!We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo №1I took as a basis the scheme of the picture with a cheerfulairplane. For ease of use, I printed it out at work. Unfortunately, we don't have a color printer in our office, but everything was perfectly clear on the black and white printout.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo # 2So, I'll tell you how I knitted and what it isknitting a sweater with knitting needles. For work I used acrylic yarn (it does not prick), with a thread length of 350 meters in a skein. The thread is thin, I knitted in two folds. Someone will say that it was possible to save money by buying a little thicker yarn. My answer is - you can't. Even thicker yarn gives a thin fabric when knitting, and its consumption is about the same. I chose the colors that are in the pattern, and for the main one I took dark blue (it does not stain, and it is elegant). Shelf Cast on 70 loops on the knitting needles (thread in two folds), knit 5 centimeters with an elastic band, then in the last row of the elastic band evenly add 20 loops. In total, there are 90 loops on the knitting needles, of which 86 will be used in knitting the pattern. Knit another 10 centimeters with blue yarn using a thin knit (front rows - front loops, back rows - back loops). Then knit the next 60 rows strictly according to the pattern. To prevent the threads from pulling the entire fabric together, you need to stretch it a little while working and twist the threads together as often as possible. This will make the fabric denser and prevent it from pulling together. After knitting the pattern, you can relax, all the most difficult things are behind you. Return to the blue yarn, knit 2 rows, and then in each subsequent row after the edge loop and before the edge loop in the front row, knit two loops together. This will allow you to evenly prepare the armhole for the raglan.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Picture №3Let's not forget about the neck.The thing is that the main "dislike" of children to wear sweaters at home is that the head fits through the neck very tightly. So I decided to make a placket on the sweater. To do this, I closed the middle 8 loops, and finished the shoulders separately.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo №4Back Cast on 70 stitches on knitting needles (the thread is also intwo additions), knit 5 centimeters with an elastic band, but in the last row of the elastic band we evenly add not 20, but 10 loops. We do this so that both the back and the shelf are the same width. Due to the pattern, the shelf will not stretch in width, which cannot be said about the back. Knit 10 centimeters with blue yarn in a thin knit (front rows - front loops, back rows - back loops). After this, alternate white and blue stripes, 9 rows in each strip. We design the armhole in the same way as on the shelf.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo №5Sew the side seams of the back and the front. Pin the shoulders.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo №6Sleeves Knitting of a children's sweater continuesknit, and proceed to the sleeves. It is best to knit both sleeves at the same time, from different balls. Cast on 40 loops for each sleeve. Knit 5 centimeters with an elastic band. In the last row, evenly add 10 loops. Then knit with stocking stitch, in every 10th row, behind the edge loop at the beginning of the row and before the edge loop at the end of the row, make an increase of 1 loop.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo №7Having knitted the sleeves up to the armhole line (width 64loops in my case), just like on the back with the shelf, we begin to decrease the loops before and after the edge by 2 loops together. And so we knit until the very end, until all the loops are closed.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo №8Sew the sleeves into the armhole. At the very top, at the shoulder, carefully pin all three pieces and sew.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo Number 9 We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Picture №10For the bar, knit two rectangles 9 loops wide. The length of the rectangle is equal to the depth of the bar.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo Number 11We sew the rectangles into the neck one on top of the other. We sew each one to the side seam of the neck.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo number 12We cast on 90 loops along the edge of the neck, it is more convenientThis can be done on circular needles or sock needles. The neck is knitted with a fold (yarn over, two knit stitches together). A buttonhole should be made on one edge of the neck.We knit the sweater with knitting needles.

You can use any pattern you like, and the rest of the knitting pattern for the sweater will be the same for everyone.We knit the sweater with knitting needles. Photo number 15
