On knitting sleeveless jackets used 5 skeins of black and one skein of milk yarn.
We start knitting the back by casting on 35 stitches and knitting 15 rows to the armhole level. Then we remove 5 loops from each side and knit further 12 rows. We form the neckline by knitting 7 loops on each edge for 2 rows, leaving an untouched area in the center. We knit the front halves the same way, only we cast on 18 loops. We sew the parts together with black thread over the edge so that the sides touch each other end-to-end. The knitting is very thick.
We knit several leaves. To do this, we cast on 12-15 air loops, and then knit 8-10 s/dc in the opposite direction, without closing them, in one direction. Going back, close two loops at a time. We do the same on the other side of the military station.
The lush flower is knitted like this: cast on 6 chain stitches and connect. Then we knit rapport 6 times: 2 in/p, a fluffy stitch for 6-8 yarn overs, 2 in/p, and a connecting stitch in the center.
This is a motif from postal columns.We dial 6 chain stitches, connect them into a circle and knit 12 chain stitches into it. Then we knit a postal column into each s/bn.
A very beautiful element, it dangles merrily when walking. We knit a chain in 10, 15 and 20 chain stitches, separately. We knit 3 dc into each v/p, and then tie each d/dc with a contrasting thread for beauty. Now we twist our alder earring into a tube. When you knit 3 branches of different lengths, you need to connect them together.
The “berry” element made from different yarns looks very impressive. For the berry, dial 3 v/p, connect. First we knit 12 dc in the center of the circle. Then we tie these loops from the top so as to close the loops of the previous row. If your center is not yet filled, you need to continue tying until the central hole disappears.
The main element is the “rose”. We start knitting it with 6 chain stitches, which we close in a circle. Now knitting will occur in a spiral. We knit 5 chain stitches, then connect s/c to the center. We knit 5 more chains and once again connect to the center of the s/c. We connect the next 5 ch/p under the first chain of ch/p. Then under the second chain and... etc. until you knit the desired size in diameter. Now you begin to knit under the formed arches in reverse order, 7 dc for each. Get to the center. Change the thread to a contrasting thread and go in reverse order. Tying a s/bn with each loop of the previous row.
We knit roses not only in one color; it is better to knit the milky section of the sleeveless vest in brown tones for harmony of perception.
Now my favorite element is the mouse on the shoulder. We start knitting it with 6 loops on an open loop (thread wrapped around a finger). We tighten the loop so that there are no gaps in the mouse’s small nose.
Then we continue to knit: s/c for lifting and 2 s/c in each loop of the previous row, closing the row.
In the next row - 1 chain stitch, 1 chain stitch, 2 chain stitches in the loop of the previous row. We knit 9 rows and begin to decrease the loops in the reverse order. We knit the tail with a simple chain of woven fabric.
We embroider the muzzle, and the ears are 5 dc in an open loop, which we tighten and sew to the head. Be sure to sew a piece of cheese in front of the mouse!
Sew flowers to the right front half.
Then to the left. Don’t forget to decorate it additionally with the same yarn from which the sleeveless vest was knitted, simply sewing it over the edge.
Still, the mouse is good.
Just like the sleeveless vest itself. You will be charming in it.
