Knitting beautiful sweaters for children may seem like a very complicated and demanding task, but the truth is that whether knitting with two needles or crocheting, knitting a vest is not that complicated and it is enough to know some basic points and tips to end up with a beautiful garment for children. smallest of the house. So here we give you some ideas and advice.

CROCHET WOVEN VESTS If you are more comfortable with crochet, you can also knit cute and practical vests for children. You can use the type of stitch that you feel most comfortable with. Personally, I think that crocheting is faster and allows you to experiment with different stitches, but the fabric can be lighter and lighter than knitting with two needles.

I recommend using combinations of high points and double high points so that you can advance faster. No matter what vest model you decide to make, you will surely have to knit a rib so that the garment fits better. Don't worry if you don't know how to do it because here are the instructions:

STEP BY STEP TO KNIT A CROCHET SPRING To knit the rib of your vest, first chain the necessary chains to achieve the width of your vest, then knit a midpoint in each chain, for the third round you will knit the first midpoint in front of the previous point and the next one in front of behind, that is, taking the point in reverse of how you knit a half point, do this throughout the row. You will notice that small braids and reliefs are formed on one side of the fabric and on the other.

Do the same in the following rows until you have at least 4 centimeters of spring. It is important that when you start a new row you knit with the same stitch as in the previous row, for example if you started taking the stitch from the front, in the following rows you should start the same, so that the rib has a shape.

WOOL VESTS FOR CHILDREN WITH TWO NEEDLES Vests and stockings are the most classic fabrics for needlework. If you are a beginner in this technique and feel a little lost, you can read some tips about it in this link. Knitting gabled, unlike crochet, results in thicker and warmer work , and although it seems a little more complicated with a little practice you will be able to master this technique like others. Here he left you some ideas of two-needle knitted vests.

To knit a vest you have to do it in two parts. Start by casting on 71 stitches on your needle or the ones needed for your child, and then knit 6 centimeters of rib (remember to knit one and purl to form it), then knit one row and purl one row until knitting 16 centimeters, then begin to decrease four stitches in the following rows until obtaining 16 centimeters.

Do the same for the front, but when you get to the middle of the vest, separate half the stitches with a spacer and knit each part separately, decreasing 12 stitches, in each part, at the end join the front and back.

KNIT A ONE PIECE VEST EASILY It doesn't matter what you decided to knit the vest for the little ones in the house. Either with needles or with a crochet hook, you will have noticed that the most complicated thing is to make the reductions and that when joining the pieces they remain perfect. To solve this problem, I present this idea for children's wool vests that you will love. It is a model that is woven in one piece.

It doesn't matter which technique you choose, start knitting a rib and then continue knitting the rest of the vest, if you started on the back continue until you reach shoulder height, then separate the stitches to knit separately and thus form the neckline of the vest. Continue knitting until you reach the waist and then knit the rib again for about 6 cm. In the end you will only have to put some ribbons on the sides or some buttons so that the vest closes and remains formed. You can decorate it with a crochet figure, which you have already learned in other posts.
