Specifics of work

In addition, you don’t need a lot of material to make them: sometimes, leftover colored yarn from working on larger items will be enough.

Cap with a visor for dolls

You will need hooks #1, #3 and thin yarn.

The product is knitted in a circle. Below is a step-by-step description of how to knit a hat for a doll.

The initial sliding ring is collected - this is the beginning of the cap. In this cap there will be 12 wedges with an addition of 1 loop in each row of each wedge.

1 row – 3 VP, 11 ST. WITH NAK. (knitted into a ring), PSBN in the upper loop of the lifting column.

2 rows – 3 VP, 1 SC into the loop of the lower column, then into the same column 1 RVSN (the hook is inserted under the lower column, and as if wraps around it, creating a convex relief), reproduce 11 times, PSBN into the upper loop of the lifting column.

3 rows – 3 VP, 1 SC with NAC in the upper lifting loop of the previous row, 1 RVSN (grabs the lower RVSN of the previous row), 2 SC with NAC in the next loop of the lower row, 1 RVSN – repeat 11 times, each row ends with PSBN.

4th row – 3 VP, 2 SC into loop of bottom row, 1 RVSN, 3 SC into 2 bottom loops, 1 RVSN – repeat 11 times, 1 PSBN.

5 rows – 3 VP, 3 ST. WITH NAK., 1 RVSN, 4 ST. WITH NAK., 1 RVSN – repeat 11 times, 1 PSBN.

6th row – 3 VP, 4 ST. WITH NAK., 1 RVSN, 5 ST. WITH NAK., 1 RVSN – repeat 11 times, 1 PSBN.

The increase in loops in each wedge must be evenly distributed over the loops of the previous row.

The result should be a circle with an approximate diameter of 6 cm.

7 rows – knit without increases. 3 VP, then knit as the loops look – in each lower column 1 ST. With NAK., observing the location of the RVSN – all 12 wedges are made, and finish with PSBN.

8th row – loops begin to decrease, 3 VP, 2 CT with NAK, 2 CT with NAK knit with a common top, 1 RVSN, 3 CT with NAK, 2 CT with NAK with a common top, RVSN – repeat 11 times, HDBN.

9th row – 3 VP, 2 ST. C NAC. with a common top, RVSN, 2 ST. C NAC., 2 ST. C NAC. with a common top, RVSN – repeat 11 times, PSBN.

10 rows – 1 VP, in each loop of the bottom row 1 SC to the end of the row, PSBN – closes the row.

The doll's beret is made. But the cap needs a visor. To knit it, 4 central wedges or 16 loops are allocated. The first row is started with a single crochet to pull a new thread through, and knit for the front walls of the loops of the bottom row:

1 row – 3 sc, 2 sc in the bottom loop, 3 sc, 2 sc in the next loop, 3 sc, 2 sc in the next loop, 4 sc.

2 rows – 1 VP, skip 1 loop and knit 17 SC, skip the last loop of the previous row.

3 rows – 1 VP, skip the initial loop, 3 SC, 2 SC in the next loop, 6 SC, 2 SC in the next loop, 3 SC, 2 SC with a common top.

4 rows – 1 VP, skip the initial loop, 7 SC, 2 SC in the next loop, 5 SC, 2 SC with a common top, leave the last column of the previous row without knitting into it.

Secure the thread.

You need to tie the cap in a circle with PSBN, only in the corners of the visor you need to knit 2 SC for a beautiful appearance of the cap.

Ushanka hat

Necessary materials and tools: thin yarn (approx. 300 m per 50 g), 1.5 hook, remnants of grass-type yarn for finishing.

Job Description:

Row 1 – start with a sliding loop. Cast on 12 CCHs (shown on the diagram as [ɬ].

Row 2 – knit 2 CCH in each column of the bottom row.

Row 3 – add 1 DC into every 2nd column of the bottom row.

Rows 4–7 are knitted with DC stitches in a circle without increases.

Pattern diagram for a hat with earflaps:

To knit the visor, you can knit the middle 18 sts with a CCH in 4 rows.

The ears are knitted with the main thread. From the visor, knit 9 loops of the CCH - 4 rows, then make a decrease in each row, without finishing the outer columns. A total of 4 rows.

Hat with pompom

For this you will need: leftover thin yarn, a hook of a suitable size (for example, No. 3), a pompom (you can use fur or make it yourself from any thread).

Cast on a chain of 6 loops and knit the elastic using single crochet stitches:

1 row – 1 VP, 6 SC.

2 rows – 1 VP, 6 SC, which are knitted behind the back wall of the loops of the bottom row.

3-30 rows – repeat as 2nd row.

The number of rows varies depending on the volume of the doll's head. The doll in the photo has a head volume of 17 cm. Connect the elastic band into a ring with connecting single crochets and begin knitting the hat itself. First, tie the elastic band with 30 sc, and then:

1 p. - 3 VPP, 29 SSN

2 rows – 3 VP and knit 2 columns together – a total of 14 CCH.

Row 3 – 3 VP, 7 CCH. Connect all the loops to finish the hat. Attach the finished pompom.

1 row – 6 sc.

2 rows – 12 sc.

3 rows – 18 sc.

4 rows – 24 sc.

6 rows – 30 sc.

7 rows – 36 sc.

8 rows – 42 sc.

Knit another 3-4 rows with the yarn of the initial color without adding loops. Then switch to another yarn and knit another 4-5 rows. The cap is divided into parts for knitting the ears as follows: front - 17 sts, 1st ear - 8 sts, back - 9 sts, 2nd ear - 8 sts.

The ears are knitted from 8 loops with double crochets, decreasing the number of loops in each row by 2. There are 4 rows in total.

The ears for the top of the hat can be knitted as flat triangles or small cones, starting with 5 loops (or 10 loops of the DC for a cone) and decreasing to 1 loop (3 rows). They are attached to the top and decorated with small tassels made of thread.

Knitting eyes from white threads starts from a ring of 6 sc, 2nd row - 12 sc, 3rd row - 24 sc. Sew a bead or a small button onto the cap instead of a pupil.

The owl's beak is made with a few stitches using a thick needle in the center of the cap between the eyes.
