White summer clothes always look great, especially the one that is crocheted. A white crochet dress with a rose or other decor is a product for craftswomen with a certain experience. Such large projects require a lot of patience, the ability to take measurements and make calculations, as well as adjust the pattern and pattern if necessary.
A few words about yarn
Knitters who worked with cotton and linen do not need to be convinced that these materials are best suited for creating children's and adult items of clothing. Obviously, their performance is optimal for the manufacture of dresses, tops, fishnet hats and skirts. This yarn is perfectly breathable, absorbs moisture and is soft.
Of course, a white crocheted dress with a rose can be knitted from yarn with artificial fibers, for example, from polyamide or microfiber. However, it should be borne in mind that such materials can be hot (even if the canvas is very openwork). They are recommended to be used for the manufacture of elegant and festive dresses. Lurex thread, sequins, beads, beads and other elements are often used as decor.
The value of correct calculations
No matter how simple the dress model, experienced craftswomen recommend making calculations and checking the sizes of knitted fabrics as often as possible during work. This will avoid errors, and if they appear, they can be eliminated with the least loss of time.
Crochet a white baby dress with a rose, the photo of which is located at the beginning of the article, is made of two main parts:
- Yoke.
- Skirt.
Work starts from above, from the neckline. Measurements that the craftswoman will need for knitting:
- Head circumference and neck width.
- Neck depth.
- Product length to the waist.
- Chest circumference.
- The depth of the armhole.
- Skirt length.
- The total length of the product.
Making coquette
To determine how many columns should be in the initial row, you should run a control sample. Its measurement will help to calculate the density of the canvas (the number of columns per 10 cm). Almost all further calculations will be based on this indicator.
A white dress crocheted with a rose knits round. The first row is the neckline. To form a raglan, in four places in a row, arches of two air loops are made. Please note that the gaps between these arches should not be the same. Those parts of the fabric that will form the front and back, make wider than those that go to the sleeves.
When three rows of yoke are knitted, the sleeves stop knitting. Further work only with the details of the front and back. They are knitted separately to a height equal to the depth of the armhole. Then between them, from two sides (on the sides of the canvases), chains of air loops are laid and a row is closed in a ring. The width of this row should be equal to the circumference of the chest. Next, the yoke knitting is completed in circular rows. The neck and armholes should be tied with any simple border.
Full skirt
In order for the white dress to crochet with a rose to get a wide skirt, they begin to knit it as indicated in the diagram below.
At the request of the craftswoman, several rows should be performed exactly without additions, and then proceed to expansion.
The final stage of work is the manufacture of roses according to one of the proposed samples.
In order to crochet such a white dress with a rose with your own hands, it will take some time, but the result is worth it! An elegant and beautiful product will delight both the craftswoman and the baby who will wear it.
