If your clothes are an office option, then feel free to choose shades of gray, cold blue or rose quartz. And if you wear more casual, denim clothes, then buy saffron or electric blue. Although gray also looks good with jeans.

The consumption of yarn for knitting a cardigan is quite large 1-1.5 kg. In this case, you can save money by buying yarn by packaging in the online store, and not by the piece at retail. It's even better to do this:

• buy 1 skein of 2-3 yarn options
• knit a pattern for a cardigan
• wash it and make the calculation of the loops.

As a result, you will know the quality of the yarn: whether it sheds or not, whether the yarn shrinks, whether it holds the pattern you have chosen well. Such careful preparation will save you from the frustration that can be experienced in case of incorrect yarn selection. Or, alternatively, buy only the yarn recommended by the author of the model you have chosen. It is not worth experimenting in this case.

We wish you good luck in the difficult process of knitting a cardigan with knitting needles. We hope that the result will not disappoint you. To help you, we have selected more than 35 interesting models knitting cardigans with descriptions and diagrams. If you want to show your finished cardigan, send your work to our editorial office.

Master class on knitting a long cardigan with a belt

To make a long cardigan that emphasizes the silhouette, for a woman in size 46-48, take: 1 kg of yarn in raspberry color "Maqic JAZZ", knitting needles No. 3 (circular). When knitting a pattern, the thread is taken in two additions. Before work, you need to remember which common abbreviations are used in most knitting patterns. Here they are: R. - row, p. - loop, persons. ch. - facial surface, out. ch. - wrong side, cf. n. - middle loops, out. p. - purl loop, persons. n. - front loop. To make a product, proceed as follows:

1. Back.
   • We start knitting with this part of the product. On ordinary knitting needles we collect 160 p. And we knit 90 strips with an “English rubber band”, which is done like this - one out, one front. To designate a knitting pattern in this technique, the following abbreviation is used - 1X1 OR 1/1.
   • In the next - 91 p. we evenly remove 50 loops, leave 110. We do it like this: we knit every third and fourth loops together.
   • 92-95 p. will be performed with front stitch, and 96-99 p. - purl.
   • Work the next 30 rows in stockinette stitch. Again we repeat the alternation 4 through 4 (wrong side and front surface) - 129-132 p. knit out. ch., and 133-136 p. - facial. We keep this alternation order up to the 259th row, taking into account the knitting of the armhole.
   • Armhole. When making this fragment for 211 p. close 5 p. on both sides (total 10 p.). To do this, in the 211 and 213 rows, after knitting the first edge loop, we take together 3 sts once, and in 214 and 218 p. - 2 loops together 4 times in a row.
   • Neck line. In 253 r. we find the midline, count 22 cf. loops and begin to decrease them. To do this, in 2 p., starting from 253 (i.e., in 253 and 255 p.), we knit symmetrically on both sides, starting from 11 loops in the center, two loops together 4 times. In rows 254 and 256 we knit the central loops two together once.
   • 259 r. - last. We close its loops. To do this, we take two loops at once and knit them together, return the new loop obtained to the first knitting needle, take it again and another loop and knit it together. We follow this order until one loop remains. We pass the thread through it and tie a knot. Everything, the detail is ready.
   • We knit the left shoulder in the same way.

1. Right shelf.
   • We collect 93 p. and knit 90 p. "English gum".
   • Working with 91 rows, cast off evenly 30 loops - we knit each 3 and 4 loops together.
   • In the 92nd row, the extreme lion. 10 loops will be knitted with an elastic band 1/1., We knit the next 53 loops, alternating 4 persons. n. and 4 out.
   • Starting from the 93rd p., 30 rows we use only the front surface, from 123 p. again alternate 4 to 4 (purl, faces. surface).
2. Armhole. The order of work on this part of the right shelf is similar to knitting the back. In 211 r. close 5 loops on each side of the product (total - 10 p.). To do this, we knit them in 211 and 213 rows after the first edge loop (we take 3 sts together once), and in 214 and 218 p. two loops together 4 times in a row.
3. Neck. This part is knitted at 247 p. We remove 16 sts on the left. Starting from 247, we take 2 loops together 4 times in a row (in 247 and 249 rows). 248 row and 250-258 we knit faces. ch. 259 r. - we finish knitting the part by closing the loops.
4. Right sleeve. We string 75 p. and knit 35 p. "English gum". 36 p. - remove 22 sts evenly, knitting every 3-4 sts, two together. 37-40 p. - front surface, 41-44 p. - purl, so alternate up to 113 p. For 49 p. we expand the canvas, adding in all 8 rows 1 loop 7 times. To do this, we make a crochet. We get 69 p. and knit faces. ch. up to 163 p.
5. Starting from 163 p., in order to draw the line of the sleeve okonka, on both sides of the shelf we close three p., knitting them together. Then in each even row (164,166,168, etc.) we decrease 2 sts in two rows, 1 st in 9 rows, 3 loops once. It should turn out 23 p. We finish knitting the details of 193 p., close.
6. The right sleeve is done in the same way. We make sure that the knitting density is the same, otherwise the details will differ in length and width.
7. The left front of the cardigan and the sleeve are knitted in the same order.
8. Belt. To make it, we collect 25 loops, we knit with an elastic band 1/1 in a row for 240 rows. We close the 241st.
9. Connecting parts. We sew in a zigzag all parts of the product: the back with the right and then with the left shelf. We sew sleeves. The finished cardigan is steamed and dried.

Three-color cardigan in the style of Lalo Dolidze - braid gradient

For the lalo model, Alize Lanagold 800 threads are used, which contain 49% wool. For a size 44 sweater you will need: 16 skeins of 100 g each in three shades (6/5/5), knitting needles two pairs of No. 5 60, 80 cm long, 3 mm 40 cm each (circular), loop holders. The description will use the generally accepted abbreviations used in most knitting magazines: p. - row, p. - loop, persons. ch. - front surface, out. ch. - wrong side, cf. n. - middle loops, out. p. - purl loop, persons. p. - front loop, chrome. - edge loop, nech.r. - odd row. How to create a product:

1. Main fabric including front and back.
   • We collect 228 p., We take a thread in three additions. 2 p. we double the number of loops, for this, after each simple loop, we make a crochet (we take the thread in the form of a loop, throw it on the second knitting needle with knitted loops). This technique will give the product volume and help round the bottom.
   • The third row is performed as follows: 1 chrome., 2 out, 30 persons. We keep this order until the end of the row, we knit the remaining three loops like this 2 persons., 1 chrome.
2. Knitting braid.
   • The whole jacket is the presence of large braids. One such braid contains 30 loops. There should be 14 such patterns in total. From the 4th row, we begin knitting braids, making a crossing of 15x15 loops. To complete it, remove 15 sts on a spare knitting needle, move them to work and knit the next 15 sts with facial ones. We pull the working knitting needle forward and leave the already knitted loops on the fishing line, then the knitting needle remains free.
   • Then we take in left hand an additional knitting needle and perform it with the help of a working one - 15 persons. n. and 2 out. Again, 15 sts are removed on a separate knitting needle, we send them to work. 15 loops knit faces. ch., we pull the working knitting needle. Freeing it from the loops (by shifting them to the fishing line), we knit 15 faces. n. with an additional knitting needle. We continue to the end of the row. We knit the next purl row in the same way. Such knitting will provide crossing. Crossing must be repeated after 28 rows. The result will be 14 braids: three for the shelves, one for the armholes and 6 pcs. - on the back.

1. Armhole.
   • The armhole armhole is 10 sts smaller than the back and 20 sts more than the front. On the rim from the back, you will have to decrease one loop in all odd rows, knitting 2 loops together. From the front, close 10 sts at once, for this you need to decrease 3, 3, 2, 2 loops alternately in odd rows. It turns out that 30 p. of one braid will go to the armhole. First one shelf is knitted, then the second. We observe the height of the armhole at the level of 18 cm.
   • Next, we close the loops from the 2nd and 3rd braids (this will be the shoulder), but 1 braid will still have to be knitted 10 cm, which will go to the collar. Then we close the loops here as well. We return to the okat on the back. Here we decrease the number of loops one by one in all nech. R. As a result, the height of the rim of the back of the product will coincide with the height of the rim of the armhole along the shelf.
2. Sleeve.
   • We do it from the bottom up. Cast on 50 sts in the second row, by yarn over increase one st after each st, we get 100 sts. We continue to knit braids, as on the main fabric. You can add in each 10 out to increase the volume. R. one loop. We knit all additional loops with facial ones. We direct the braids on the left sleeve to right side, on the other - on the contrary.
   • Let's start with the sleeves. The 10 loops added earlier will have to be removed. However, the okat on the back is gentle, so you will have to remove 1 st in each purl row. On the front, it is much deeper, so you need to close 7 loops at once, and then - 3 times in each out. R. 1 p each. We finish knitting the sleeve by decreasing the number of loops on both sides in this order: 3, 5, 10 loops. We close all the remaining loops.
3. Connecting parts. The cardigan was knitted entirely at once, so it remains only to sew the sleeves, the center of the collar, the collar itself to the back and sew the shoulder seams on top.

The most popular knitting needles for knitting cardigans are No. 3, 4 and 5. The number indicates their thickness. Knitting needles differ in the material of manufacture: aluminum, steel, plastic, bamboo. They are also classified by type: open, closed (there is a limiter at the end) and circular (connected with a bundle).

Now there are a huge number of yarn options. The result of all work depends on her choice. Some contain 100% natural threads (chinchilla, cotton, angora), others are supplemented with synthetic threads (melange, Pingouin Familia, Alize Lanagold 800). It is important to take into account the thickness of the fibers, the structure, the length in the skein, the presence of color effects. For the manufacture of warm clothes, it is better to take mohair, angora, alpaca (natural wool of goats and rabbits). Products from them are warm, soft, light. Let's look at some of the most popular types of yarn:

• Wool - fibers from the wool of animals (camels, dogs, sheep, rabbits). It differs in thickness, strength and length of the fibers. The most durable wool is camel. The general qualities of this material include softness, high thermal insulation, hygroscopicity. The disadvantages of wool are the formation of pellets on things.
• Acrylic is a synthetic material. In terms of its qualities, it resembles wool, is resistant to weak alkali, acids, and sunlight. Good for coloring. Moths do not eat acrylic clothing, it does not stretch or shrink. It is used as an improver of the properties of natural yarn.
• Mohair is considered one of the warmest types of yarn. It is the wool of angora goats. The best mohair is obtained by cutting goats. It is used as a mixture with synthetic fibers, due to the fact that pure mohair cannot form a thread and breaks up into fibers.
