going to learn how to knit this
beautiful top-down cardigan for a
newborn baby there are three videos part
1 2 & 3 and you can find all of them on
the description box below this video
please don't forget to visit my website
so we'll link that net so you can take a
look of the reading instructions for
this little jacket you will need 80
grams of what it's called DK weight yarn
8 flies we can need the body of the
jacket we will start here on the color
we will increase this beautiful Raglan
increases until we get to the armhole
and then we will separate the sleeves
and need the rest of of the body for
this part you can use straight needles
I'm using us 7 size or four point five
millimeters but for the sleeves we are
going to need circular needles also four
point five millimeters or us seven size
60 centimeters long or 23 inches then
you will use the Anita take these three
needle and eight markers you can make
the markers yourself if you prefer so
let's get started
first we need to cast on 40 stitches
you
you
you
now we are going to knit four rows just
net across the row
when you get to the last stitch just net
and turn your work remember we are
meaning flat not in the round second row
also net across from the first to the
last stitch and again when you get to
the last stitch of the second row match
that one and now we're going to knit
third and fourth grows and ace will form
the little neck of the jacket and then
we're going to split stitches to form
the front right front right sleeve back
left sleeve and left front so we need to
pull rows in garter stitch this is the
right side of the work where you see
this beautiful edge and the yarn from
the cast on is on the left hand now we
are going to knit three stitches and
place one marker these will create this
garter edge so the jacket does not curl
[Music]
now we need for we have here seven in
total and here we are going to knit
front and back so we create a new stitch
that is an increase you knit the stitch
as usual and keeping the loop here on
this middle you are going to need this
stitch through the back loop so you
create two stitches of one now we're
going to place another marker and these
will be the right front of the jacket
and here we're going to make another
increase same way with a kfb which is
knit front and back now when it three
stitches and we make another increase
knit front and back
and we place another marker this will be
the right sleep now we make another
increase knit front and back and we need
12 stitches
[Music]
and here we make another increase in it
turned back and place another marker so
this is the back of the jacket here we
make another increase knit front and
back we need three stitches two three
we make my mother increase made don't
come back so we have the left sleeve we
place another marker this is the left
front we will make another increase make
a change back take out of night
don't split the jar and now we need on
to the last three stitches and we place
last marker to separate the Garter
stitch okay
so we have here three
nine and we have here three nine nine
stitches for every front part now we
have the shoulder or the C seven seven
and here is the back 16 so from now on
we're going to make one increase row
exactly the same way we did it
and one breast row this will be a purl
row we will purl across the world from
the first to the last stitch and it's
called the rest draw because we are not
going to make any increase here we will
just be curling but except for the three
the first three stitches and the last
three stitches as I said this is the
Garter edge so we are going to knit
these three stitches in every row slip
the marker and then four
every time you get to the marker you
Justin
put it on the other two right honey and
keep pouring
[Music]
now we don't you touch to the last three
stitches slip the marker and meet
straight
okay now we're going to make another
increase roll and what we will be doing
thanks Annette the first three stitches
slip the marker knit
all until you get one stitch before the
marker and here we are going to make the
increase knit back in front slip the
marker and make another increase mesh
that confront keeping it in
until there is just one stitch before
the marker and make another increase
knit back and front slip the marker
another increase same way Nate back and
front or kfb what's called the
approbation now you need all the
stitches back
until one stitch before the marker and
here we make another increase knit and
round slip the marker make another
increase knit back and front nature
until there is just one stitch before
the marker make it increase knit back
and front slip a marker make another
increase and keep knitting these two
markers are different just to show me
that I'm not going to do the same that I
do every time I hit marker which is the
increases it's just for the Garter edge
remember so you don't need to increase
anything there
and this will be a rest row so you miss
the first three you pour across without
increasing and the unit the last three
exactly as we did before so keep doing
this onto the piece measures around 3.5
inches or nine point seven centimeters
after knitting these goals well port
color you can make a buttonhole I did it
one to six rows below the color and to
create the bottom hole you just need to
do the following knit one and knit two
together
finish this general social and on the
following row we are going to cast on
one stitch there Philippe the marker and
now they're going to custom one stage
thank you sleep
and here we finish the row by Newton the
rest on the next row your need for three
stitches a solution
sweepa marker and there you have the
little whatnot okay I hope you enjoyed
