Knitting raglan from the neck - fashionable, beautiful, comfortable and easy!

In our time, the current "hand made" is becoming fashionable again. It puts first things in clothes and accessories on things made by oneself. We welcome the process of independent sewing, embroidery, making jewelry from felt and beads, nylon and sparkles. A separate block in fashion stands out knitting knitting. Raglan also occupies a special place in this bloc.

Raglan knitting from the neck is very convenient because, first, it saves the master from wringing armholes and pellets at the sleeves - quite a difficult moment in the process of making things. Secondly, this method practically solves the problems associated with sewing sleeves into the armhole, as a result of which the thing of this model always successfully "sits" on the figure. Thirdly, if a sweater is meant for socks to a toddler, then as it grows, it is very convenient to tie it up, spreading only the very bottom of the sleeves and the product itself. And even if the needlewoman does not have the right color yarn, you can make cuffs and a lower elastic band from another material, or you can tie the original strips into the edging.

If the foreman is not ready to start working on circular knitting needles, then she can use ordinary knitting. Raglan sleeves with the chosen method of mating are still much easier to perform than carefully reducing the addition of loops in the manufacture of a conventional model with an armhole.

In order for the seam of the sleeve to look beautiful, the reduction should be made not along the very edge, but by stepping back from it 2 loops. That is, removing the edge and tying two facial in each row, the next two loops need to be tied together face. In the same way, the reduction on the back and ahead of the model is done. The sleeve is finished when it is required - the craftsman will see it when applying the part to the pattern.

But more convenient, as already mentioned, knitting raglan from the neck. And the model in this version can be a jacket, a cardigan or even a coat with a fastener in front of the bottom of the product. Or maybe it's a kosovorotkoy or tennis with a small, centimeters 10, clasp from above. You can also make the product in the form of a sweater with a neck under the shirt or "under the neck", with a collar - a "pipe" that turns if desired into the original hood, or an elegant "yoke". But all these collars are tied to the neck or sewn after the main product is ready.

The very same raglan knitting from the neck is performed from above on the circular knitting needles. In some cases, you can use ordinary knitting needles. But then we should pay attention to the fact that the needles should have both ends free. And for loops from such spokes to not fall off, it is recommended to use pieces from the eraser, which should be worn on both ends of the needle immediately after tying all the loops on it. When it comes to the turn of the new knitting needle, one end of the needle is released from the eraser. Spokes should take the amount that is necessary for work.

Usually everywhere raglan knitting from the neck has such a description of the connecting seam of the sleeve with the main part: on both sides of the selected loop, around which the loops are added, ordinary wraps are made. After tying them in the usual way, openwork holes are obtained. On thin products this looks extremely beautiful.

But when making dense knit patterns, for example, cardigans or coats, such holes, you will agree, are undesirable. Then it is quite appropriate to add loops using the "crow's feet" pattern. In this case, simply three loops out of one loop. A hole is not formed.

To tie three loops out of one, it is normal to loop a loop, but do not remove it from the left knitting needle. Then the cape is made, and the loop is sewn again. Only after that you can shoot it. The seam also looks nice and elegant. The most important thing in any knitted model is the accuracy of the execution. And then everyone who begins to wear a hand-knit thing will constantly experience comfort and pleasure from it!
