With the onset of the cold season, we are actively starting to warm up. We prepare warm clothes for ourselves, our loved ones and, of course, children. Each of us has warm jackets, sweaters, cardigans, hats, mittens, socks, scarves in our wardrobe. And, probably, everyone has heard of such a warm thing as a shirt-front. It looks like a round scarf, fake collar and bib at the same time.

The bib is a universal thing

It looks like a scarf and a warm collar at the same time. Very practical, comfortable and easy to wear for all generations. It is convenient to put on and take off the bib, so if your baby does not really like the process of dressing and undressing in the cool season, be sure to tie him a bib!

If you are not a fan of warm scarves that often open in the wind and can be very bulky, then a shirt-front will come in handy for you. Knitted shirt front (you can find diagrams and a description for beginners in this article) is easy to make. We will present to your attention very simple knitting options for this circular scarf.

Tie the shirtfrontself

Believe me, it will not be difficult for you to create your own masterpiece, it does not require much experience in knitting. You can easily make such a bib for yourself, your child, your husband. With the onset of cold weather and beloved New Year holidays, this comfortable circular scarf is suitable as a gift for your beloved family members or friends. Everyone knows that any thing created by hands warms in a special way. Knitted shirt front (we will describe the diagrams and description for beginners below) knits quickly and easily.

Knitting needles

The number of knitting needles directly depends on the yarn from which your fake scarf will be made. By the way, it is indicated on each package of yarn, and if you are a beginner, this will serve as a great hint for you.

For knitting a shirt-front, select round knitting needles. This way you don't have to sew the scarf afterwards and it looks much neater without a seam.

Yarn

Since we are going to knit a thing for warming in the cold season, you need to choose a thick yarn, consisting of half a woolen thread. For children, it is better to choose specially children's yarn, it contains natural hypoallergenic fibers, which is very important for children's clothes.

Acrylic thread yarn is great - it will make a soft and pleasant product to wear. Knitted shirtfront, the diagrams and description for beginners of which we will provide later in the article, your baby will definitely like.

Buff Sizes

So, with knitting needles and yarn, we decided. Now you need to figure out the size of your future bib. The size of the shirtfront depends on how many loops you dial initially. If we are going to knit such a fake scarf for a baby who is only 1 year old, then you need to dial 72 loops. For a two-year-old baby, it is required to initially dial 8 more loops. And so on, by age. The total number of stitches should always be a multiple of 4, so keep that in mind.

Children's shirtfront with knitting needles: diagram, description for beginners

We present to your attention a fairly easy way to knit a circular scarf for children on round knitting needles. It requires 5 spokes. As soon as the required number of loops is dialed, start knitting according to the recommended pattern:

1. Knit rib 2 x 2 (alternating 2 loops knit and 2 purl), about 15 cm.
2. Because we are knitting a product in the round, it is difficult for us to understand where it starts and ends, so we need to remember them or mark them.
3. After you have knitted the first loop, yarn over (yarn over is an additional loop, it is not difficult to do, you just need to grab the thread, forming an additional loop, and transfer to the knitting needle).
4. Knit all sts on needle, do not forget to yarn over before last st, knit it.
5. Following steps 3 and 4, knit the remaining three knitting needles.
6. Knit a new row.
7. We knit the third row in the same way as the first, addingnakida.
8. Add yarn over each row, bringing the length of the front to about 8 cm.
9. Ribbet stitch for a few final rows as described at the beginning.
10. Finish your knitting as follows: knit the last row, knitting two loops at a time, while removing them from the needles.

You have a knitted shirt-front! Schemes and a description for beginners of how to decorate it will not be needed, it all depends on your imagination.

This method is universal. A special instruction on how a children's shirt-front is knitted with knitting needles (diagram, description) for 1, 5 years, 2 or for older children is not needed. You can use the above as a basis.

One more way

Children's shirt-front with knitting needles (a diagram and a description for beginners are offered in our article) will also work for you if you knit it in the following simple way. For this type of knitting you will need regular and circular knitting needles.

You know, in order to knit a shirt-front for a baby for 1.5 years, you need to dial 72 loops. This amount must be distributed over 4 knitting needles. As a result, on each of them you should have 18 loops.

Determine the beginning of the row. The neck of the scarf, as a rule, needs to be tied with an elastic band, which will not allow the product to stretch much in the sock. So, we knit with an elastic band 1 x 1 (alternate 1 front and 1 wrong loops), about 8 cm. Afterthe elastic is ready, we knit the next 4 rows with facial loops.

The next step is to divide our knitting into four parts:

• 1 part - before, which consists of 22 loops. We knit it: we alternate 2 facial and 8 purl loops.
• 2 part - right shoulder, which consists of 12 loops.
• 3 part - back, also consisting of 22 loops. We knit the back, as before.
• 4 part - left shoulder, consisting of 12 loops.

We continue to knit our bib, while adding one loop on the two sides of the first and last loop of each part. Thus, raglan should turn out. We add loops through each row. And in order not to form large holes while adding loops, it is necessary to add them as follows: put the knitting needle in the right hand under the working thread stretched on the finger and grab it. Then we transfer this loop to the left knitting needle and knit it with the front one, behind the back wall.

As you can see, with the addition of loops, the product expands, and in order for you to knit comfortably, start using circular needles at this stage. After your product has been knitted for about 8 cm, stop adding loops and close the front and right shoulder. Continuing to knit the back, we close the left shoulder. We knit the back. You should get a product with a front and back side. In each front row on both sides we decrease one loop until 30-32 loops remain on your knitting needles. We close all the loops, the back is ready.

Decorate the shirtfront

If a baby shirt is knitted with knitting needles,the description scheme for a boy or a girl looks the same. The only difference is in the color of the finished product. If you are going to knit a shirt-front for a boy, choose blue, blue, light green, beige, black. If it is intended for a girl, then choose bright and delicate shades of pink, red, yellow.

The finished product can be decorated with embroidery, pom-poms, lace, buttons, bows. The edges of the finished shirt-front can be crocheted (single crochet) as desired or decorated to your taste. It all depends on who the baby shirt is intended for.

With knitting needles (diagrams and description, photos are in the article), you can now easily knit this simple and very convenient thing. In fact, there is nothing complicated here. The main thing is to have desire, patience, and then everything will work out for you.
