There is no such thing as too much information about sweaters. Regardless of the time of year and the weather outside, most knitters are either knitting sweaters or thinking about the next model.

A sweater with braids is a classic knitted products, combining functionality with beauty. If we take the terms strictly, then a sweater should be called a type of knitted clothing without a fastener with a high neck, intended for the upper body. In practice, this is what both pullovers and jumpers are called.

Types of sweaters

Over the centuries-old history of development, this type of clothing has become extremely widespread and has undergone several modifications. Basically, any changes concerned the pattern that was used to make the canvas. However, the most popular is the sweater with braids. The cut and model of the sweater remain virtually unchanged. The most popular models are:

  • classic plain or fitted sweater;
  • raglan;
  • fantasy patterns (knitting diagonally, from the sleeve, across).

In the last few years, sweaters have also been very popular, the cut of which includes a short front part along with an elongated back part.

female: diagram and description of the classic model

The traditional sweater pattern involves knitting the front, back, sleeves and neck pieces. Front and back fabrics can be straight or fitted. The latter always look more elegant and fit better. Even if the sweater is not designed to fit tightly, a slight narrowing of the fabric at the waist will help avoid the formation of a “bag” on the back. Despite the elasticity of the knitted fabric, in order to fit a sweater with cables, you need to make calculations and correctly determine the narrowest point. Otherwise the silhouette may be distorted.

At the same time, knitting even fabrics is much simpler and faster; there is no need to count loops for decreasing and subsequent expansion. Straight cut fits wide

Sweater Patterns

The pattern is perfect for knitting straight and fitted pieces. women's sweater with braids, located below.

Its beauty is that it uses only knit and purl stitches. Their crossing creates both the main pattern - a braid, and a background pattern reminiscent of a honeycomb.

The knitting pattern for a sweater with braids, proposed below, consists of the same types of loops.

However, here, unlike the first scheme, not only the front loops are intertwined, but also the front and back loops. By crossing these types of loops in succession, a mesh of knit stitches on the back fabric is obtained. This technique is used to weave the most complex braids and knots. These patterns will require a decent amount of yarn.

Classic sweater sleeves

The round sleeve cap, allowing it to be sewn into the same round armhole, is what distinguishes the classic sweater with cables. Almost every knitter has encountered a description of the process of knitting okata. As well as a real test of nerves and patience.

Often, the knitting pattern for a sweater with braids does not provide shortcuts for knitting the required round contours of the fabric and you have to invent them yourself. In this case, you need to ensure that the output web is symmetrical and without distortions.

Secret tricks

To make your work easier, you can use the following techniques:

  • draw a pattern on a sheet of paper thick paper and apply knitting to the drawing;
  • consistently record the process of cutting and adding loops. When knitting the next piece, this sequence will need to be repeated in mirror image;
  • the ridge will have a smooth shape if you first cut 10-15 loops along the edges, then cut 30% of the height of the ridge, one loop in each knit row, 50% knit evenly, 20% cut intensively (two loops in each knit or one loop in each row).

The front armholes should be deeper than the back armholes. Many people believe that such subtleties are unnecessary when knitting knitted fabric, that a sweater with cables “will still stretch as it should.” However, the correct cut largely determines the beauty and neatness of the model.

Knitting raglan sleeves

The advantage of knitting sweaters and pullovers with is that you do not need to count the loops and rows for knitting armholes and ruffles. The model provides for the formation of uniform bevels of the front and back parts at an angle of 45 degrees. The edges of the sleeves also have the same slope.

Women's cable sweater with raglan sleeves can be started at the top (from the neckline) or at the bottom. When knitting from above, it is very convenient to start working by making a long neck. Then, having distributed the fabric into four parts, they continue to knit both the front and back parts and the sleeves at the same time. The areas reserved for knitting the sleeves should be narrower than those that will become the front and back.

To expand the fabric in four places sequentially, in each front row, add two loops, separating them with one or more loops. Thus, every second circular row increases by eight loops, and a neat line is formed along the edge. Sometimes this place is used to place an additional decorative element (braid or openwork pattern).

Sweater neck

An element of a sweater, such as a neck, can be made in several ways:

  • knit separately and sew;
  • cast on stitches after sewing the main parts and knit up;
  • knit the neckline while knitting the main parts (in one piece).

The first method is the most convenient, since you can calculate in advance required quantity loops and correct shortcomings in a timely manner. The disadvantage of this method is the seam formed when sewing the neckline. If it is tightened, it can press and dig into the neck.

The most popular method remains the traditional method of knitting a neckline: after the front, back and sleeve parts are sewn, closed and shortened loops are cast on circular knitting needles and knitted until the right size. This process is quite inconvenient and error-prone. The actual size of the neck becomes clear after knitting 10 cm of fabric; it may be too large or, on the contrary, narrow.

The last method is to avoid any seam between the sweater parts and the neckline. The advantage of this method is the ability to knit a sweater with braids; the pattern can be absolutely any, with a pattern that continues at the neck. As in the photo below, the pattern of complex braids smoothly transitions into the neckline pattern.

The importance of neat seams for the quality of knitwear

Knitting the fabrics is half the battle; one of the most important stages lies ahead: sewing the sweater. As a rule, a sweater with braids is knitted for women; the pattern describes only before knitting the fabric, which then needs to be assembled. The only exceptions are those made in circular rows with raglan sleeves. But you will also need to sew sleeves on them.

There is a special knitted seam. Its principle is clearly illustrated in the picture below.

The essence of the seam is that it turns out to be as elastic as knitted fabric. There is another option, it is designed for faster stitching of knitted fabrics.

To use it you will need a hook. This variety knitted seam performed with wrong side canvases.

Properly sewn fabrics look neat even with strong stretching. Such aspects reveal the class and quality of a knitted product.
