How to tie a bolero for summer

Bolero is a great addition to any dress or open top, irreplaceable both on a cool day and in the office where open shoulders are not appropriate. Interestingly, the bolero was originally a man's garment and was a short vest. But as soon as women appropriated this thing, there was no limit to the variety of boleros: sleeves appeared, length began to vary, women came up with sewing on collars and fasteners, using belts and even leaving only the sleeves and back, completely removing the front shelves.

You will need:

• Cotton yarn
• Hook number 3

We have chosen a model of a summer bolero crocheted with the help of motifs.

Motives are small figures, the required number of which is laid out according to the pattern and connected with the same thread. In our case, these are square motives. Make a life-size pattern and knit the required number of squares according to the chosen pattern.

How to connect them is described in detail in the video:

How to tie a blanket for summer discharge

The birth of a child is a significant event for every family member. I would like these touching moments to remain in my memory for a long time and the photos reflect all your love and tenderness. A blanket, knitted by the loving hands of a mother or grandmother, will convey all the care for the baby, not only in photographs, but also covering the baby in the first months of his life.

It is better to choose threads for such a light blanket cotton, silk or viscose. In a blanket knitted of them, the child will not be hot, and his corner will protect the baby's face from both dust and the evil eye - newly-made mothers, as a rule, are very sensitive to such signs, although they do not consider themselves superstitious.

The choice of color here depends only on you, but it is still better to opt for soft, pastel shades that do not irritate the eyes. Be sure to choose a contrasting tape that matches the color of the yarn.

A blanket for discharge can be crocheted or knitted. With knitting needles, it will turn out to be denser, crocheted - airy, light. Tie on a large number of any motives you like and combine them. There are many patterns for knitting motives and knitting needles and crocheting. Or you can choose any pattern you like and knit it according to the pattern to the required size.

You can use threads of different colors, then the blanket will turn out to be bright, colorful. Usually for girls they use a range of pale pink colors, for boys - combinations of blue. If you decide not to find out in advance the sex of the future baby, then you can stop at neutral colors, combinations of pink with blue or pure white.

How to crochet a bag for the summer

A knitted bag will add charm, comfort and femininity to your summer look. A clutch bag, a shopping bag, a bag with a long shoulder strap, even a backpack - you can knit all this with your own hands. Bags, as well as hats and hats, can be decorated with various decorative elements: appliqués, beads, wooden details. You can make tassels or pom-poms from the rest of the thread. The knitted bag handles make room for your imagination. They can not only be knitted, but also sewn or purchased ready-made - metal or wood. If you're knitting a beach bag, decorate it in a nautical style.

The last few seasons, among fashionable bags, backpacks of various shapes and sizes deserve special attention. Therefore, we decided to tell you how to knit a stylish backpack for the summer with our own hands. Although this is a rather voluminous thing, it fits quite simply.

Like almost every knitted bag, knitting starts from the bottom of the backpack. These are usually simple single crochets. We have given you a simple scheme by which you can knit both the bottom for a backpack and for any other bag - by imposing walls on such a bottom according to any pattern you like, including connecting motifs. We decided to knit the backpack by connecting hexagonal motifs according to the following pattern:

After you have connected the motifs and attached them to the bottom of the bag, twist the cord from the remaining threads according to this principle:

Thread it over the top edge of the backpack and tie knots at the ends of the cord. It will tighten the backpack, thereby acting as a lock.

If you knitted not a backpack, but a bag, then using the same twisted cord you can make handles for the bag.

How to knit knee-highs for summer

There is already a certain stereotype that grandmothers knit socks and they usually do it with knitting needles. Not because they do not know how to crochet, but because they try to take care of the warmth of their relatives, and they cannot crochet such a tight knit.

But you can crochet very delicate, lace, summer knee-highs. If for some reason you think that you are no longer wearing them for your age, then your daughter or sister will certainly like them. Modern fashion allows even older girls to wear knee-highs and knee-highs in everyday life, with simple shoes without a heel and a dress or skirt. This image turns out to be very delicate and stylish. Golfs will beautifully accentuate your slender legs, and in dark or black colors they will visually reduce the volume of your calves.

First, knit a tight sock according to this description:

And, without stopping knitting, with any pattern you like, continue to knit to the required length, adding and subtracting loops according to the size of your calves.

By this principle, you can get very fashionable lace summer boots, well starch them to keep their shape.
