Large size knitted skirt: diagram with description

Skirt in boho style, will become a real find for women with curves. This style combines hippies, folklore, military style, a touch of gypsy clothing and ethnic motifs.

A crocheted skirt made of thick yarn for a girl is crocheted from triangles. Due to the thick yarn, the skirt is warm and knits very quickly. And due to the unusual cut it fits very well.

Materials:

Yarn “Winter Premiere” from Pekhorsky Textiles (150 m in 100 grams, composition 50% merino, 50% bulk acrylic) black 200 g. (for hip circumference 67 cm)

Hook 3.5.

The yarn is thick and warm, knits easily and quickly. Loosely twisted, the finished product does not mow.

Job description:

The skirt is knitted according to the description from here http://yarni.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=493

This skirt is knitted from two rectangular isosceles triangles. If you put them together, you get a cylinder - the base of the skirt.

Triangle skirt

The hypotenuse of the triangle is the circumference of the hips.

Triangles are knitted, starting from the legs. The calculation is made based on the well-known formula: the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the legs c²= a² + b²

If the hip circumference is 67 cm, then the square of the hypotenuse (67²) is 4489.

Since in an isosceles right triangle the legs are equal, then с²= 2*а².

From here a² = c²/2, which in our case is 4489/2=2244.5.

a = √(c²/2), which in our case is √2244.5 = 47 cm.

We cast on loops for 2 legs + one extra (for the corner) = 70+70+1=141 loops and knit a right triangle with double crochets according to the following pattern. To make an elastic band, we knit each row using the back half-loop of the previous row.

Decrements are made at the beginning and end of each row (two double crochets are knitted with one common vertex), and in the center - here three double crochets are knitted with a common vertex.

We knit two triangles in this way.

We connect the triangles together with one broken seam into a cylinder.

We tie the bottom of the skirt and the belt. Since I was running low on yarn, I had enough for two rows of binding at the bottom and three rows of waistband. But you can make the binding of any convenient width.

Cut the threads and hide the ends.

A crocheted skirt made of thick yarn for a girl made of triangles is ready. You can try it on!

Features of knitting women's skirts. Schemes and descriptions.

The nature of a woman is to bring beauty to the world. The first thing that comes to mind is physical, that is, pleasant appearance and clothes.

Paying attention to the life of our ancestors and the way of life of all peoples, we will see that women only wore dresses and/or skirts. Although our century has brought, to some extent, freedom in clothing and styles, subconsciously we are drawn to women's clothing. Needlewomen always create interesting models of skirts for different seasons and occasions.

Let's talk in more detail about the nuances of knitting women's skirts and look at photos of finished models.

When selecting yarn for a skirt, take either:

• sectional dyeing thread
• alternate several colors, including different textured yarns

After taking measurements, making a control sample and determining the knitting density, draw diagrams of the skirt and alternating stripes.

Choose the knitting direction either from top to bottom or vice versa. Please note that your product will be narrower in the waist area.

Prepare an elastic band or elastic thread in advance. Weave the latter into the work above the belt along with the main yarn.

A pleated skirt is suitable for women of any age and size.

Before starting knitting, prepare:

• yarn and knitting needles
• detailed diagram of the skirt indicating areas with folds

• when the length of the other side of the fabric is equal to the circumference of the hips plus the width of the wrap, cut the loops on this side as well,
• fold the finished part of the skirt so that the smell overlaps,

Large size knitted skirt: diagram with description

large knitted skirt on a woman

Curvy women are irresistible in skirts. However, in the preparatory stage for knitting, consider a number of points:

• Yarn consumption will be slightly higher
• knitting needles are needed longer and better on the fishing line
• it will take more time to implement

Choose a pattern for the skirt and its knitting technique so that it does not add visually unwanted volume to you. For example, leave a lot of braids on the yoke or extreme widening of the fabric immediately from the waist line for thin girls.

You can knit a skirt like this quickly, since you will use knitting needles of the appropriate diameter for thick yarn.

A regular stockinette/garter stitch on a skirt will look like a warm pattern. And braid weaves will add originality to your product.

Knit either:

• in the round on stocking needles
• on knitting needles with fishing line with further stitching of the fabric

Due to the density of the thick yarn, try to minimize the number of seams. This way you will achieve comfort in wearing a skirt.

Don't make it too flared. Thick yarn is quite stiff in the finished product. It may puff up.

Accordingly, skirts made with elastic are:

• midi and mini
• in the form of a pipe and trapezoid

Prepare yarn of moderate thickness of any origin and knitting needles to match the diameter of its thread.

Video: how to knit a women's skirt?

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 correctly read their patterns and master a set of loops and their types: front and back.

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 use to knit the product;
• 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

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 even the simplest English rubber band It is often used even in the manufacture of an independent, full-fledged item and is very popular among both experienced knitters and beginner 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.
