Baptism is an important event that needs to be carefully prepared. To begin with, it is worth choosing a church in which the sacrament will be performed. It is also necessary to choose godparents who will hold the child in their arms during this important event, and then become a reliable support for him. And, of course, you must not forget to take care of the clothes for the baby. Today, manufacturers offer a wide assortment of similar kits that any average family can afford to purchase. However, a baptismal dress will help to make the holiday truly unforgettable. Crochet knit it can be both a mother and a godmother.
First, pay attention to the yarn from which it will be made. As a rule, a baptismal
dress is crocheted from white thread. In this case, you need to purchase a very thin yarn so that the finished product is soft and delicate. If the
boy is to be
baptized, you should also buy a little string of blue threads. If the girls - a skein of pink. By knitting a white base, it will be possible to finish with threads of the corresponding tone. Many, for example, simply knit strips. Others, having tied a white base, perform the entire finish, respectively, in pink or blue. Such a product looks especially beautiful and festive.
If we talk about the composition, then for the summer the best option would be linen or cotton. For winter, it is better to purchase wool. In this case, the material should be of very high quality so that the baby does not feel discomfort. The fact that for the manufacture of the product you can always choose the material of the optimal composition, and lies the advantage of hand-made manufacturing of such sets. In this case, the sleeve can be tied so that it does not interfere with the child. If you do not know the exact sizes that the baptismal dress should have, the pattern will help dispel all doubts. It can be built independently or using a variety of sources (books, magazines, articles, sites). As a result, your baby will have a beautiful baptismal kit, and you will have only positive impressions of the perfect sacrament.
If it is still difficult for you to figure out how to crochet a baptismal dress, the schemes will certainly help. In them, it will be indicated in detail how many loops are worth dialing and what pattern to do the work. It is worth noting that the baptismal dress crochets knit as long as possible. It does not really matter for whom it is intended: for a boy or for a girl. A long product will allow you to hide the baby's legs, if suddenly it is cool in the church. In this case, the fastener should be done on the shoulder or on the back. During the sacrament, the godparents will have to unfasten it so that the priest can perform the ritual. With this arrangement of fasteners, it will be convenient to do this.
If a boy is to be baptized, then a costume can be made. To do this, tie shorts or trousers (depending on the time of year) and a blouse. The pattern can be any. A beautiful finish that can be done by knitting ruffles of various lengths will add a special solemnity to the costume.
