Selection of schemes












It's never too late to learn to knit - this especially applies to young mothers. After all, this process allows you to create unique and at the same time practical things for all family members. The best option knitting is a knitted vest for a girl - this wardrobe item goes perfectly with any clothes and is suitable for children different ages. After all, even the smallest representatives of the fair sex always dream of being not only beautiful, but also fashionable.

Despite the fact that knitting a vest for a girl is not as complicated a process as knitting a sweater or overalls, it is also important to take into account certain nuances. Before starting the process, it is very important to calculate the required number of loops to cast on. The fact is that if there are more loops than necessary, the sleeveless vest will turn out shapeless and will simply hang on the girl. And vice versa, if the loops are missing, then the item will turn out to be too tight and will not look good on the child.

Therefore, before starting work it is very important to make the correct calculations. Here you will need two main indicators:

  • The child's chest circumference, where X cm is an unknown number that equals the chest circumference.
  • The length of the sample of the product, knitted in advance, where N is a known number that is equal to the number of loops of the sleeveless sample.

Since X is the desired number, it must be determined. To do this, the identity of the child’s chest circumference and the size of the previously knitted sample should be divided by the number of loops that were required to create the product sample. The result obtained will be the number of stitches that will need to be cast on in the process of knitting the vest.

One very important thing to consider here is important point: since vests are not knitted entirely, but in two separate parts, which then need to be combined into a single composition, the first number in the formula, designated by the letter X, must first be divided in half.

Knitting the pattern is very important, as is adding 2-3 extra stitches from the front of the vest, since in little girls the chest size is always slightly wider than the back size. If you follow the rules for calculating the number of loops, you will be able to knit exactly the size of a sleeveless vest that will fit perfectly on your child.

Stylish vest can be combined with a sweater, jacket and even a jacket. Girls like the duo of a sleeveless vest with a denim shirt or turtleneck. Little ones feel comfortable in beautiful fashionable new clothes and free hands.












A knitted vest with knitting needles can be made in several ways:

  • dense satin stitch;
  • relief or openwork pattern;
  • with added ornament;
  • combining different styles and materials.

Any vest model is knitted from two halves, which are then simply sewn together. For beginner craftswomen, this will not be difficult at all. For the first time, it is better for a girl to knit a vest with knitting needles in regular stockinette stitch, so as not to be distracted by knitting the pattern. Before starting work, you need to prepare yarn and knitting needles, take measurements and tune in to the creative process.

Stages of knitting a vest

The rules for knitting a sleeveless vest for children are a little simpler than for adults. You will need to take fewer measurements, and you won’t even need a vest pattern for a girl if the child is small. But, the basic rules of knitting will have to be followed. Before starting work, take basic measurements:

  • hip (chest) volume. These measurements are taken separately if the girl is already an adult and the parameters are different. For kids, it is enough to fix one volume;
  • Length of front to armhole. Measured on the side of armpit to the desired sleeveless length;
  • Armhole height is the length from the armpits to the shoulder in centimeters. Measurements are taken in a straight line, without bends;
  • total length finished product. This is a line from the base of the neck to the desired length.


You will need a few tools and materials:

  • yarn desired color and thickness. Leftovers from other products may be suitable if you are planning a color palette;
  • knitting needles of two different diameters. The elastic band will keep its shape well if knitted with thinner knitting needles. This will allow the sleeveless vest to look more aesthetically pleasing;
  • needle or hook for sewing parts.

For beginning craftswomen, first of all, it is better to knit the back of a sleeveless vest. This technique will help out if you need to expand the product a little or there are not enough threads. In the first case, you can add up to 4-6 loops to the front fabric of a vest for a girl, in the second - yarn of a different color or a suitable fabric. There is no need to bandage the back of a knitted vest.

Let's get started


In order for a children's vest to be fully sized, you will have to carry out the necessary mathematical calculations. Basic measurements are taken from children without clearance. The adjustment is made during the calculation of the loops. To determine the width of a knitted sleeveless vest, take the hip volume and divide in half. For example, if the volume of a girl’s hips (chest) is 64 cm, then 32 cm is the width of one front of a sleeveless vest. When calculating, take into account the thickness of the knitting needles and yarn.
First, knit a sample to calculate the total number of elastic loops. A small canvas measuring 10 x 10 cm will be enough. Then, measure the exact width of the square and calculate the number of loops in one centimeter. The result obtained is multiplied by 32 cm - the width of the shelf. 2 P (edge) are added to the final figure. Now you can use knitting needles to cast on the total number of stitches for knitting the bottom of the sleeveless vest.


Start by casting on stitches on thinner needles to begin knitting the rib.
The type of elastic band and height are determined depending on the model. For babies it is not necessary to knit it wide and voluminous. It is better to decorate a small product for a girl with a combination of purl and front loops (1x1), openwork or double elastic. Its maximum length for a children's vest is 10 cm.
After knitting the elastic, the thread, in the process of knitting a row (hereinafter abbreviated as P), is transferred to knitting needles of a larger diameter. For older children, 6-8 loops are added evenly in the first P. Then continue to knit a smooth fabric up to the armhole.
To design the armhole line, close 1-2 loops (hereinafter the abbreviation P is used) on both sides of the fabric. It is better to do this at the beginning of R. The total number of closed loops is no more than 6 on each side. Continue working up to the shoulder without decreasing. Having reached the desired length, close all P in one R. The thread is carefully cut and secured to prevent the product from unraveling.




Knitting the front The process of knitting the front half of a vest for a girl is similar to knitting the back. A slight difficulty for inexperienced knitters is the design of the neckline. The easiest way is to make a Y-shape. The location of the beginning of the neck is determined in advance. Then you will need to be careful not to miss the intended length. Having knitted to the required P, divide the P in half, mark the middle of the fabric with a pin or thread of a contrasting color. From this mark they begin to close P.




Now knit each front half separately. Having knitted the front P to the mark, close one P and finish the row. Purl P is knitted to the mark and transferred to the front one. Close one P again. Continue this way until the shoulder line. Close the remaining stitches and proceed to knitting the second half of the front. All stages of knitting are repeated in mirror image.
Assembly and design

Each knitted item is washed and carefully steamed. If a children's vest is knitted with a relief pattern, then the iron should be wrapped in a damp cloth and brought as close as possible (without touching) to the product. This way the pattern will retain its convexity.
You can sew parts of a vest for a girl using thread or a hook. Finish the neckline and armhole with an elastic band. To do this, measure the required length and knit an elastic band according to this size. Height - no more than 4cm. Carefully sew it on and you can try it on.
This is the easiest way to knit a vest for a girl. Experienced craftswomen will add a complex neckline, original pattern, leather or fabric edging. Any knitted pattern will bring joy to the girl, because it is made with love.
