Crochet volume hat

Volume caps - not only a suitable hat for the winter, but also the real trend of this year. They are presented in a wide range, differ in style, design, pattern. Without a doubt, these hats look spectacular, and wearing them is a pleasure.

We propose to crochet a volume hat with your own hands. The advantage of such a hat is that even those who just try themselves in needlework can knit it. And the work does not take much time.

What will be needed for work

The headdress is knitted with a pattern of lush columns. In the process, they lie in different directions, forming a thick "braid".

For knitting in this technique will not require additional jewelry. Only yarn and hook. A knitted snood or a scarf can complement the accessory.

What yarn to choose

It is best to use yarn with mohair in the following combination:

  • mohair - 40%;
  • acrylic - 60%.

For one product, 100 g is enough (one tangle) . Knitting in two threads.

The product from such a yarn is very warm, fluffy and holds its shape perfectly. Color is chosen according to personal preference.

Important! It is useful for beginners to know that when working with a dark thread it is more difficult to count the loops and consider the pattern. Therefore, the first time it is more convenient to work with light yarn.

What kind of crochet hook is needed

The size of the hook depends on the yarn selected. For our yarn in two folds, a 3.5 mm hook is ideal .

Help It is best to choose a tool with an aluminum tip and a plastic handle. It is convenient to hold, and the hand will not get tired in the process.

How to knit a female volume hat

Now that everything is ready, you can start knitting. But first, let's determine the size.

How to take measurements

It’s hard to make a beautiful and suitable finished product without taking measurements. Therefore, do not neglect this stage. We will need two measurements.

  • Exhaust gas (head circumference) - the volume of the product depends on it.
  • MV (height from top to nose) - determines the desired height of the accessory.

If for some reason you can’t take measurements or the product is knitted as a gift, you can use the standard size table.

AgeOg, cmMV, cm
Breast babies25eleven
Little children under 6 years old35–4010-15
Children and teens4019–20
Adults (small and medium sizes)5222–25
Adults (large size)6021-23

After the measurements are ready, you need to determine the number of loops. A related pattern will help.

Collect 10 loops and tie 10 rows with the pattern you plan to make the hat on. Measure the sample with a ruler and, based on the exhaust gas meter, calculate the required number of loops.

Attention ! For the accuracy of the calculation, calculate how many loops in 1 cm of the canvas.

For example, if there are 2.5 of them, and the exhaust gas is 52 cm, then the number of loops will be: 52 * 2.5 = 130.

How to tie a cap with lush columns

A volumetric hat for women can be knitted in several ways. The most common are knitting from the bottom up and from top to bottom. Before you begin to work, you need to learn how to knit the main pattern.

Lush bollards

  • Knit two rows in a circle in accordance with the description of the pattern.
  • Knit the third in the opposite direction. It is necessary for the columns to look the other way. So do until the end of the work.
  • Having reached the required height, begin to reduce the loop.
  • In each next row: instead of groups of three columns, knit two; instead of two, knit one. And make magnificent columns not of five loops with a crochet, but of four.
  • Next: conditionally divide the canvas into four equal parts. At the end of each of them, decrease one rapport. Do this for six more rows until there are four rapports left.
  • Pull eight single crochet into a ring, fasten.

Second way: top to bottom

  • Dial a chain of six loops, connect into a ring.
  • Make 6 magnificent columns so. * Cape on the hook, pull the working thread through the ring * five times. Pull the thread through all the loops.
