With the onset of cold weather, every person needs warm clothes. The hat will protect and warm your head. But, as always, for the new season I want to have new thing, which will be not only beautiful, but also warm. Buying a hat in a store that will meet all the requirements is not so easy. But there is a way out! You just need to buy high-quality threads and knit it yourself.

Hats for women and girls, knitted from motley melange yarn, have a special charm. When knitting from colored yarn of sectional dyeing, a unique pattern is born each time, and even if you knit two things from the same ball with the same pattern - for example, a braid with a shadow - they will still turn out completely different. A beanie hat knitted from fluffy multi-colored melange yarn and a beret made from delicate velor will also look great. If you are afraid that the hat will not be winter enough, you can knit it either from warm wool or mohair yarn, or line it with a warm fleece lining.

For needlewomen who knit, a huge selection of yarn is offered. It can be different not only in color, but also in composition. The most practical and in demand for a long time is melange yarn. If you translate the word “melange”, you get “mixture”. Exactly the mixture various colors and shades is melange yarn.

There is a large assortment of such thread. You can even find colors that, it would seem, don’t even go together. Or maybe the thread is the same color, but in different, similar shades.

It was possible to get such a thread earlier, connecting different threads into one. Modern manufacturers use special technologies to produce real melange yarn. In it, one thread can be dyed in different colors.

Melange yarn is very interesting. It can be used for knitting various items, including hats. Thanks to the thread of different colors, the product is obtained with clearly defined stripes or areas that differ from each other. A thread with glitter will allow you to get an excellent iridescent fabric that will not leave others indifferent.

Patterns

Melange yarn has one undeniable advantage: there is no need to come up with complex and intricate patterns. Even if you knit the fabric with regular garter or stocking stitch, it will look original and elegant.

Melange yarn is a real find for beginners. First of all, there is no need to “suffer” with a complex pattern. Well, secondly, minor defects that may occur as a result of knitting will be completely invisible due to the diversity of the fabric. It’s best to start with a simple scarf and hat, and improve your skills over time.

If you knit a 1x1 or 2x2 elastic band from such threads, the loops will still not be very noticeable. So, from melange threads The following simplest patterns are knitted:

• stocking;
• shawl;
• any elastic band;
• rice knitting, etc.

Scheme knitted patterns can be found on the Internet. The choice of pattern for the hat, as always, is yours. If you need a tight knitting, then you can knit braids; if the fabric needs to be moderately thin, then a simple stockinette stitch will do.

Patterns for women's hats

Depending on the thickness of the selected thread, yarn consumption will occur. When knitting a hat, a thin thread is folded in two folds so that the product is dense and warm.

To knit such a women's hat, you need to fold a thin thread in half. Finding out the number of loops needed to knit this pattern is very simple. You just need to knit a pattern sample according to the diagram or description, selected threads, and use it to calculate how many loops there will be in a centimeter. By measuring the circumference of your head and knowing the number of loops per centimeter, you can easily calculate the number of them for the product.

This pattern is made on 4 needles, but you can knit it on 2, but there will be a seam at the back.

Main knitting:

1. row: k1, p3;
2. row: k2, *p1, k3*;
3. like 1st;
4. like 2nd.

Since the description is quite simple, a diagram is not required for it.

You need to knit 20 cm with this pattern. After this you need to make decreases. To do this, on each knitting needle, first, you need to knit 2 stitches together. It turns out that 4 stitches are shortened in a row at once, and at equal intervals. Such decreases must be done eight rows in a row. Those loops that remain are simply pulled together with the working thread. The product is ready.

Hat knitted from melange raspberry yarn

Main pattern:

From the 13th row the pattern is repeated from the 1st row.

The required number of loops is cast on the knitting needles and knitted with the described 15 cm pattern. Next, the work continues with stockinette stitch. At a height of 25 cm from the start of work, you need to shape the bottom. At certain intervals, knit 2 stitches together. Several rows are repeated in this way, the main thing is that each subsequent decrease must be made above the previous one. The remaining loops are pulled together with a working thread. A side seam is made.

Knitted women's gray hat

This product is very interesting. To knit such a hat you will need melange yarn of medium density gray shades. In order to see how the pattern looks on these threads, you need to knit it using a diagram or description. Having received the sample, we make the necessary calculations and determine the number of loops for the product.

As you can see from the photo, instead of an elastic band, a wide headband is used, knitted with garter stitch. The top of the hat is knitted with a spikelet pattern. It can be obtained from vertical tracks of long descending knit stitches in garter stitch. When decreases are made, these spikelets become closer to each other, and at the end of the work they are connected at the top of the head.

Let's get started.

We put the required number of loops on the knitting needles and knit with a garter stitch of 15.5 cm. Next, we begin to make decreases. Two loops are knitted together after the edge, and then each 7 and 8. At a height of 17.5 cm from the beginning of knitting, we decrease again. We knit the first two stitches, then we knit 2 stitches together, the subsequent decrease will be with every 5th and 6th loop.

When the canvas is 21 cm, you need to make spikelets. Knit: edge, 2 p. garter stitch, *3 spikelet loops*, 3 stitches in garter stitch. Repeat from * to *. The spikelet is made only on 36 rows; there is no need to unravel below. There is no diagram for this pattern.

Having completed the “spikelet”, you need to tighten the remaining loops with a working thread and sew the product.

Women's hat knitted with thick knitting needles

With thick threads and thick knitting needles, a hat can be knitted in a matter of hours. There will be fewer loops to work with, and the height of the product will be knitted very quickly. The hat is knitted without a lapel and is decorated with a pompom on top.

The simplest pattern chosen for this hat is:

• facial surface;
• pearl pattern.

Knit stitch: knit all stitches on the knit row, and purl on the purl row.

Pearl Pattern:

1. row: knit, purl;
2. row: the purl one is knitted above the knit one, and the knit one is knitted above the purl one.

The pattern is repeated like row 2. A pattern diagram is not needed, since the description is complete.

The loops cast on the knitting needles must be distributed so that the pearl pattern is repeated twice (in front and behind). For example: 15 loops in stockinette stitch, three loops in pearl pattern, 15 loops in stockinette stitch, 3 loops in pearl pattern. You need to substitute your number of stitches for the stockinette stitch. For a pearl pattern knitted with thick threads, 3 loops will be enough.

The proposed pattern knits 17 cm, then you need to make decreases. So as not to get hurt beautiful pattern, decreases are made on the front surface, at the beginning and end of the section. Knits 2 loops together beautifully. So, in one row you get 4 decreases. You need to knit 6 such rows, and after that, the remaining loops need to be pulled together with a working thread. Knitted product ready.

Choosing threads and knitting needles

For a beret, it is better to choose a warm but thin thread. It should be moderately rigid so that the beret keeps its shape. But sometimes it is allowed to knit a beret from a very soft, silky thread, then it will gently and softly fall over the head.

In most cases, the beret is made of wool or wool mixture. Many manufacturers of knitting threads offer different fiber compositions. It is better to choose a soft one with the addition of acrylic or silk so that the thread does not prick the skin when wearing the product.

Almost every yarn manufacturer has a large selection of baby threads. These are special threads for children that do not cause any discomfort when in contact with the skin, but are very warm. You can use this yarn for hats.

Next, the article will consider a model of a beret made of thin mohair. Mohair can be used based on synthetic fiber or silk. This thread will be more expensive, but very soft and delicate.

For each beret described below, the names of the yarns from which they are knitted are given. You can use exactly the specified threads or choose your own according to the footage.

As for knitting needles, the number of this tool is usually recommended on the knitting threads and in the model description. But before you start, you should knit a sample and see exactly how it will look on certain knitting needles. Some people knit looser, others tighter, so each craftswoman chooses knitting needles to suit her own style of work.

In addition, it is also necessary to knit the sample in order to calculate the required number of loops for casting on. Sometimes it may not match the description for the size you need. It all depends on the knitting style.
