Volumetric pocket in a semicircle

This work will surprise even the masters. Peering, we can assume that everything that we see is simply connected in the shape of a small semicircle and then just a neat assembly. But actually it is not. Everything is much simpler. Just look at the folds, and everything immediately falls into place. This is a strip folded in the shape of a semicircle, but the assembly is only the top edge.

To work, use:

  • yarn for sweaters;
  • knitting needles along the thickness of the thread;
  • buttons for decoration;
  • knitting needles.

Merki

Estimate the required semicircle size by model. Then draw a line that will divide the semicircle into two mirror halves. Half of the side is the height of the strip. That is, there will be a number of rows. But the semicircle line is the length and this is the number of loops in the set further. It is this pocket that allows you to focus on the figure. Since this model can be performed for adult models.

Important! If you want to focus on the hips - place a voluminous pocket along the line below the waist.

Sample

Sample to perform with a cloth from the front surface. Believe me, in this pocket she will not be so boring. Tie a box, and calculate for him how many rows of 10 cm turned out, and how many loops came out.

Rectangle

Tie a rectangular canvas by known and calculated standards.

Important! Follow the rule with edge loops. The first and last are the edge loops of the row. In any case, the former does not knit, but simply throws it onto the working knitting needles, but the latter is only wrong.

Assembly

To assemble, use a needle and thread the yarn to collect along the upper edge, and pull off the canvas. Then distribute the pocket in the shape of a semicircle, straighten the folds well, and sew the pocket to the product. Sew a button to decorate the center of the assembly.

Very unusual pocket for a cardigan. We tried to combine two such bright yarns for one pocket. The model becomes very unusual with such jewelry.

To work, use:

  • yarn as for a cardigan in two colors;
  • knitting needles for the thickness of the selected fiber.

Merki

Estimate the size of the item. These are the usual measurements for a rectangle of length and width.

Sample

Tie a small sample with a beautiful tangle . It is also advisable to tie such a sample using the front surface . It will be easier to further connect two such halves for work, there will be no unnecessary assembly. First, calculate the density of knitting for each square, and then determine the sizes on each side.

Front surface

Rectangle

Pay attention to the fact that the elastic is made in the color of the inside of the pocket, and the inside is its continuation. It is advisable to use an inner rectangle 2 cm wider. Knit to the required height in rows and then sharply change the thread, and the continuation will already be a mess in a different color . The second part is its front side. She knits with a shelf. But it is advisable to measure the sides with special knitting markers.

Then make side seams for the pocket, but use the thread on the front side so that no stitches are visible on the outside.

So the original element for a cardigan is ready. It looks just amazing. These are the right colors and the perfect combination of patterns.

Advice! It would be nice to tie a pencil skirt with similar pockets to such a cardigan. And so that the product does not look empty, you can still sew bows in the center of each pocket according to the color of the inner thread of the pocket.

These models can be done with your own hands and knitting needles. It’s easy to make a beautiful thing if you pay attention to its decoration. But the most important thing in knitting is no rush. Just enjoy this craft.
