The simplest thing that can be crocheted and knitted is a skirt. And no matter how complicated it looks. To make a stylish skirt for any season, it is enough to know the basics of knitting patterns according to the proposed patterns and be able to calculate the number of loops.

Before you start knitting patterns, you need to learn how to read their patterns correctly and master a set of loops and their types: knit and purl.

Typically, the knitting pattern is a square divided into squares. Each cell is one loop, respectively, the number of cells horizontally and vertically is the number of loops and rows for repeat, i.e. for knitting a pattern using knit and purl stitches.

How to calculate stitches for a knitted skirt

• make a life-size pattern for the product (for example, by tracing each detail of a finished item in your size);
• knit 1 pattern repeat according to the chosen pattern with the threads you will start knitting the product with;
• calculate the number of loops in 1 cm;
• Compare your data with the product diagram or make your own calculations.

Please note that to knit a skirt, the fabric must be made thick enough, otherwise the skirt will be see-through and you will have to sew an additional lining.

How to knit a simple skirt

There is very little left until summer, so we chose a simple one, knitted from thin threads. Knitting requires less yarn than crocheting, so for such a skirt you will need no more than 350 g of cotton yarn.

How to knit a godet skirt with knitting needles

You can also simply crochet a flared skirt. Below we have given you a slightly different pattern, according to which you can knit a circle skirt both with crochet and knitting, in any chosen pattern.

You can create artificial or real pleats, which will give a flared skirt a more playful and playful look.

How to knit a skirt on circular knitting needles

Using circular knitting needles, you can knit a skirt in the round, then it will not have seams on the sides. These knitting needles are especially good for knitting flared, wide skirts and dresses.

A small but very useful tip:

How to knit a skirt from ribbon yarn with knitting needles

Ribbon yarn is more reminiscent not of yarn or thread, but of braid or, more precisely, regular ribbon. Such threads make very unique products, especially dresses or skirts. It is better to knit regular patterns with ribbon yarn, without any quirks; it itself is very unusual and beautiful. There is a small nuance when knitting with such threads: their ends unravel very easily, so special attention must be paid to securing the tails.

Ribbon yarn varies in thickness from the thinnest, barely noticeable ribbon, to a wide one, from which very beautiful flounces and ruffles are obtained. This yarn is most often used to knit children's skirts and dresses, scarves and items for interior decoration: tablecloths, lampshades.

We chose a simple baby skirt with ruffles, knitted in a solid, wide ribbon yarn. Despite the simple, uncomplicated knitting, a skirt made from such yarn turns out to be very interesting.

For such a skirt you will need one skein of ribbon yarn and the remains of ordinary cotton threads that match the color. It is also better to knit such a skirt on circular knitting needles, otherwise the side seams will be very noticeable.

1. Using ribbon yarn, cast on 100 stitches on circular needles and close them into a circle.
2. Without cutting the ribbon yarn, knit 4 rows in stockinette stitch.
3. On the fifth row, add ribbon yarn (doubling each stitch).
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2, adding loops as necessary, according to the size of the skirt, until you reach the desired length.

How to knit elastic for a skirt

When mastering the art of knitting, you definitely need to learn how to knit an elastic band. After all, it is required not only for skirts and trousers, but also for knitting almost all products - mittens, hats, scarves, cuffs and necklines, lamp shades... You can’t list everything. In addition, knitting with even the simplest English rib is often used even in the manufacture of an independent, full-fledged item and is very popular among both experienced knitters and novice needlewomen.

Despite all its ease of execution and versatility, it should be noted that such knitting has both pros and cons. The advantages, of course, include its double-sidedness: the product looks equally good from the inside and from the front side. The thing turns out to be elastic, because it’s not for nothing that it’s an “elastic” after all. The downside is that it cannot be ironed and should only be dried flat to avoid stretching; and no matter how hard you try and care for the product, over time it will still lose its shape, so if you knit a scarf and plan to wear it for more than one season, then initially make it shorter than necessary. In addition, you will need at least twice as much yarn for knitting with English rib than for any other pattern.

How to knit a belt for a skirt

We have already told you how to knit a beautiful lace one. But with the help of knitting, you can knit a thicker belt, for example for a warm skirt, from thick threads.

You can also knit a thick cord with knitting needles, if suddenly you haven’t succeeded yet. But even if you master it perfectly, then the extra equipment will definitely not hurt you.

Regarding the yarn: Amaizing yarn from South West Trading Co. was used to knit this model. I don’t know if it’s possible to buy just such a yarn made from corn fiber somewhere in Russia (I’ve only met Portuguese Rozarios 4, but it’s thicker - 110 m per 50 g), but in general, it can be replaced with polyester or viscose. These fibers are most similar in properties to corn yarn.

Fashionable knitted skirts using the pleated technique for women

We will need:

• threads (about 500 grams);
• cr. sp. No. 3.5.

Description

Women's skirts are knitted in the pleated pattern using stockinette stitch from two panels. Let's start from the bottom. The size and number of folds depend on your desire.

We don’t make a drawing of a skirt with knitting needles; we take the semi-volume T as a basis. The outer fold of each fold. make the stitches elongated... and the inner one - purl. n. Each of the folds consists of a front, wider part, and a back part, which is approximately twice as narrow. We need to count the number of cells. along the T line in one panel.
Each of the folds at the bottom should be 2-2.5 times wider than at the top, therefore, if the fold at the top consists of 12 sts, then at the bottom it consists of 24 sts. The wide plane is separated from the narrow face. and an elongated path (outer fold), the folds are separated from each other by a line of and. p. (inner fold).

How to find out the number of stitches to cast on?

The number of stitches of one fold is multiplied by the number of folds. and added. for outdoor corner number of points equal to the number of folds. For internal. fold added n., = number of folds – 1 and plus 2 folds. P..

How to narrow a pleated skirt?

To do this, we need to gradually reduce. p. in each part of the fold near the purl. paths so that the decrease is unnoticeable, the same for the edge stitches..

To find out the number of decreases, you need to subtract the number of stitches that remain on the T line. Divide the length of the product by the number of decreases. and find out the distance between them. In the wide part of the street should be twice as much as in a narrow one: if the number of p. Below 24, and at T 12, then decrease. there will be 12 (24 – 12): 8 in the wide part and 4 in the narrow part. At 64 cm, where the first 4 cm are without decreases, in the wide part there is a decrease. go through 7.5 cm (60: 8), in a narrow one - through 15 cm (60: 4).

We tie the panel to the top line, close all the stitches and iron the folds, do the second part in the same way, sew them on the sides, knit a belt and sew it along the top line.

Skirt with bow pleats: video master class

We hope our tutorial will be useful and help you knit a stylish and fashionable skirt to your taste!

Original things have long been the key to the unique style of every woman who loves herself. But sometimes you have to pay for the uniqueness of your favorite thing, and a considerable amount. This is especially true for knitted skirts. It is they, the chic handmade creations hanging in the windows of expensive boutiques, that fascinate almost all representatives of the fair sex.

But unfortunately, the magical effect ends exactly when the happy owner of a new thing comes out of the state of hypnosis and discovers that she bought something wrong. And the reason here lies not in poor quality or incorrect cut. Everything is quite banal. Knitted skirts are such an individual thing that each of its styles must correspond not only to the style, but also to the image of the owner. In addition, this wardrobe item is not suitable for everyone. Let's take a closer look at the advantages and disadvantages of knitted skirts.

Knitted skirts

The main disadvantage of a knitted skirt is that with its help it is impossible to hide even the smallest flaws in the figure. But she will perfectly highlight all the shortcomings. But if the immense desire and love for skirts does not leave your wardrobe, we advise you to wear it with a tunic or an elongated blouse, and complement it with a jacket or a loose-fitting jacket.

Knitted skirts will be an advantage for fashionistas. This season, stylists like to recommend them to many owners of an ideal figure. With its help, it is simply impossible not to stand out or go unnoticed. As for combining with other elements of clothing, an ensemble of knitted items looks just perfect, and it’s not short on practicality.

Also, these skirts are often worn over skinny jeans in combination with a jacket. This youthful combination gives the style a certain lightness and uniqueness. For elegant ladies, blouses or shirts in soft tones, complemented with exquisite belts, will be just a godsend. Jackets combined with a knitted skirt should be given special attention; in any color and style they will always and everywhere be a harmonious set. And when paired with leather or fur clothes, knitted skirts will be a win-win option.

There will be no problems with accessories either. The examples above would be:

• any beads;
• jewelry with pearls;
• brooches;
• leather and decorative belts;
• ethnic and classic bracelets;
• small bags.

As mentioned above, a knitted skirt is a practical and at the same time elegant part of a modern women's wardrobe. Knitting such a skirt with your own hands is not particularly difficult if you have certain skills. But besides knowing the knitting technique, there are several more nuances. Let's look at them.

• Correct selection of yarn. For a knitted skirt, the best material is acrylic. The fact is that it is acrylic threads that are least susceptible to deformation during the care process.
• Creating a pattern and taking the necessary measurements (waist circumference, hip circumference). Here you cannot do without a pattern; with its help, choosing the right size will not be difficult.
• During the work process, it is necessary to take into account the density of the fabric. This will help you avoid mistakes when calculating decreases and additions. You need to decide on the type of knitting.
• There is knitting with seams and seamless. When knitting seamlessly, use circular knitting needles and knit in the round. And when knitting with seams, the front and back parts are knitted separately.
• If the style of the skirt is straight, then knitting begins from the bottom.

White knitted straight skirt

Next, the process of knitting a straight style will be considered using an example. A model was taken as a sample from the fall/winter 2015 collection of the famous fashion house Dior (the first publication was made by Vogue magazine). Of course, not every woman can afford to buy such an exquisite skirt from a famous designer. But if you choose similar material and tools, you can knit a chic skirt that will be in no way inferior to the original.

The description shows four sizes: XS–S–M-L. Translated by measurements, in finished form, it looks something like this: waist: 68 cm – 74 cm – 84.5 cm – 94.5 cm; hips: 83 cm – 89.5 cm – 99.5 cm – 112 cm; product height: 58 cm. The following materials will be useful for work: straight knitting needles with a diameter of 4.5 (5) mm; CollageYarnfantasticc threads (color: dark gray “A”) 250 grams; CollageYarnfantasticc threads (color: lavender “B”) 200 grams; knitted pin or additional knitting needle; an elastic band one meter long and thirty mm wide.

Additional types of loops

There are also additional types of loops in the work, in which it is necessary to take into account color transitions. It is important to remember that when changing colors, you need to weave the threads only on the wrong side of the product. This manipulation will help avoid the appearance of holes on the front side. It is also better to use different skeins. 8 - st R C - remove four loops on an additional knitting needle, move the knitting needle behind the working fabric, four knit stitches, four loops from an additional knitting needle. 8 - sl L C - - remove four loops on an additional knitting needle, move the knitting needle in front of the working fabric, four knit stitches, four loops from an additional knitting needle.

First you need to knit the back piece. Cast on straight needles with 19 – 21 – 24 – 26 stitches, ColageYarn fantastic threads (color: dark gray “A”). Continue casting on with ColageYarnfantastic threads (color: lavender “B”) 200 grams, 33 – 35 – 37 – 41 stitches. And finish from the second skein of CollageYarnfantasticc thread (color: dark gray “A”) 250 grams, 18 - 20 - 23 - 25 loops. In the first row, all colored segments are knitted, alternating purl loops with knit stitches (1*1). Next, continue knitting 1*1 to a height of 2.5 cm. Once this height is reached, begin knitting the “two-color braid” pattern.

Braid pattern

In the first row, knit ColageYarnfantasticc color: dark gray “A” with knit stitches 13 – 15 – 18 – 20 stitches. The next 12 stitches are knitted as “8 - st R C”. After CollageYarnfantasticc color: lavender “B” knit 21 – 23 – 25 – 29 stitches with knit stitches. Then knit 12 stitches as “8 - sl L C”. We finish the row with ColageYarnfantasticc threads (color: dark gray “A”) 250 grams, knit stitches. In the second row we knit with CollageYarnfantasticc threads (color: dark gray “A”) 13 – 15 – 18 – 20 purl stitches. After this, 12 stitches as “8 - st L C”. After this, knit with Colage Yarn fantastic threads (color: lavender “B”) 21 – 23 – 25 – 28 purl stitches. Then 12 stitches “8 - sl R C”, and purl stitches to the end of the row.

Continue knitting as described until the 20th row. Repeat the pattern until the length of the product reaches 14 cm and complete the work with a purl row. Next, they begin to form the bevels of the knitted skirt. Continue knitting, increasing one loop on each side in the next row. After that, we add 4 times in every 16th row. The total should be 79 – 85 – 93 – 105 loops. Continue knitting to a length of 45 cm from the beginning of knitting. Finish knitting in a purl row.

The upper part of the skirt is knitted like this. Decrease this loop on each side in the next row. After this, do the same decreases in the 4th row 5 more times. At the end there should be 67 - 73 - 81 - 89 stitches left on the knitting needles.

Continue knitting a report of 20 rows 7 more times. The length of the product should be 58 cm.

The second part of the product is symmetrically tied.

The knitted skirt is almost ready, all that remains is to knit the belt. Using Collage Yarn fantastic thread (color: dark gray “A”), knit 3 centimeters in garter stitch. This is the final stage, all that remains is to assemble the knitted skirt.

Assembly

• Now sew the side seams.
• Place the belt on the wrong side and sew it on, not forgetting to leave a hole for inserting an elastic band.
• Insert elastic, trim off excess and sew.

That's all, the knitted skirt is ready. All that remains is to wish that this exquisite product was only the first creation.
