The real art is to be able to combine the incongruous and get a result that will be truly beautiful. And a boho tunic will harmoniously bring together things that originally belong to different styles.
Bohemia can do anything!
The name “boho” style, as they say, comes from the gypsy word “bohmiens” or from the well-known “bohemia” - an eccentric intelligentsia leading a free lifestyle, without conventions. A style called "boho" appeared at the beginning of the XXI century, it seems, very recently. But it is based on the harmony of almost everything that mankind has come up with over its long history.
You can combine a variety of elements in boho clothes - from country to romance, from vintage style to classic. Most importantly, all these different details should be in harmony with each other. But this is a real science. By the way, a boho tunic can be able to help create such an interesting image, serving as a unifying element in a suit.
Unique thing
Such an item of clothing, like a tunic, is unique - it allows you to harmoniously hide the flaws of the figure, while emphasizing its merits. The tunic can be sewn and crocheted or knitted. The named wardrobe item can be selected in the appropriate stylistic decision, it will harmonize the entire costume. A boho tunic in the style of boho will be able to become that part that will successfully help create the desired image.
Initially, a tunic, as a part of a wardrobe, is a bag-like thing with openings for the head and hands, up to the middle of the thigh, without a complicated cut. Although in today's understanding, a tunic can be anything - with sleeves, detachable under the chest or at the waist, with a collar, buttons, with lacing and decorative elements in the form of pockets, lapels, flaps. She looks equally well complete with trousers and skirts, with shorts and leggings.
Fashionable look on the hook
Crochet what is convenient? The fact that you can take such work with you wherever you go. The knitting needles are long enough, but the hook is a small handmade tool for creating beauty with your own hands. In addition, crochet patterns very often consist of several separate elements, and they are so convenient to knit and hide in a handbag when necessary. For example, when traveling, waiting for the train, sitting on the platform and knitting, and then in the car, looking at the landscape flickering outside the window, create small fragments of future beauty. T unique in the style of boho is the best suited for such a creative work.
Motives and canvases
Knitwear has a special beauty. In them, the needlewoman puts her vision of the world, a piece of the soul, as they say. No exception and a knitted tunic in the style of boho. With your own hands, crochet or knitting, you can knit it in different ways - both with a single canvas and with individual motives. The uniqueness of such a thing is that it can be both the simplest and quite complex. And it doesn’t matter how it is connected - sirloin knitting, individual motifs, a single fabric according to a certain pattern or pattern - a boho tunic crocheted, suitable for every woman.
This item of clothing can be the simplest - a few rows of petals from the center, tied with air chains that allow you to gain volume, plus thin straps - that's all, the tunic is ready. Of course, such a thing should not be worn as an independent. Add a topic matching the color and the ensemble will sparkle.
Collecting in pieces
In order to make a beautiful crocheted boho style tunic with your own hands, it is most convenient to crochet individual motifs, then combining them into a single thing. There are many schemes for such work - from small fragments of lace to a full-fledged drawing, suitable for creating napkins in the grandmother's style.
Yes, yes, do not be surprised. There are many similar descriptions of knitting, when the central motive is the scheme of an ordinary crocheted openwork napkin. Working with individual motives is convenient in small dimensions, although then you have to continue the process, collecting individual pieces into a single whole, and this is no less painstaking work than knitting one motive even in a not too complicated scheme. So sometimes working with a single canvas takes less time than working with motives.
Step-by-step process as a guarantee of top quality
You can always create a harmonious image from disparate elements of your wardrobe if a crocheted knitted tunic appears in it. A master class on such work will include several stages:
- Choosing your favorite motive.
- Buying suitable threads for a specific model and tool - a crochet hook.
- Knitting out one motive according to the chosen pattern.
- Measuring the size of the resulting motive, calculating the required number of motives, in accordance with the size of the thing and its cut, taking into account the sleeves or their absence, the length of the tunic, its width for the desired volume.
- Vyvyazyvanie the necessary number of motives.
- Assembly of the product.
The finished product should be slightly moistened, let it dry when unfolded. It is possible to iron knitted things from the wrong side, through thin cotton, in no case pressing the iron strongly against the fabric, but only touching it slightly and working with steam. You can use the steamer by hanging the finished tunic on a coat hanger.
Build Secrets
A boho tunic will become a unique thing for a needlewoman of any skill level, if all the motifs are sewn together very carefully. For this, it is necessary to use either the same threads that connected the motifs, or bobbin threads of the same shade.
Joints are sewn together, with small stitches, all knots and ponytails of the thread are made invisible and are located on the wrong side of the product. Moreover, when assembling motives into a single whole, one should also take into account the fact that each of them has a front and wrong side and you need to collect them by turning everything the same way on one side.
From one field
T unique in the style of boho, crocheted, is not necessarily individual motifs, then collected in a full thing. The tunic can be connected quite simply:
- For example, choose a simple drawing, then another and one more. Let them be three.
- Then dial the required number of air loops into a chain, a length equal to the half-circumference of the hips plus 15-30 centimeters for freedom of fitting.
- Dividing the entire future canvas into three parts, each give their own chosen picture. And knit the fabric in three patterns, connecting them together.
- When the length of the canvas reaches 50-70 centimeters (depending on the height of the needlewoman or customer), the canvas is divided into two parts that are knitted separately, without decreasing to a height of 30-40 centimeters.
- Then both parts are connected again into one fabric and are knitted again to the same length. The neckline, which turned out in the middle of the panel, is the neck. It is treated with inlay, if desired. If the slot turned out quite long, then you can provide a buttonhole and a beautiful button for the fastener in the back, and indeed in the front.
A do-it-yourself boho tunic, knitted by your own hands, will become the pride of any needlewoman, because it is this style that allows you to harmonize clothes from any wardrobe, making a woman stylish and fashionable. And it doesn’t matter at all how it is connected - with the help of grandmother's simple squares or trendy filet ornament. In any case, the boho tunic we have described will be a unique thing that creates beauty and harmony.
