Beautiful knitted items on small children evoke affection. Tiny blouses, caps, and pants cannot help but delight. But for kids, knitted clothes not only serve an aesthetic function. It is of particular value, since newborns have not yet established independent heat exchange - they really need additional thermal insulation and protection.

Clothes for legs

First of all, the child needs to insulate his legs. Knitted socks and booties do a great job with this. Socks for babies differ from adult models only in size, but booties are the first shoes, they are presented both in the form of shoes, boots, and are a kind of sandals. Booties and booties usually have ties to keep them firmly on the foot; It is not recommended to use Velcro, otherwise it will scratch the skin. Sandals can be worn in the summer, but they act only as decoration and will not protect you from dust and drafts. In summer, socks are safer. Standard sizes of socks and booties range from 8 cm to 13 cm. The size is equal to the length of the baby’s foot. Every 3 months, the leg adds 1 cm, so when calculating, you can also base your calculations on the baby’s age. Foot length is measured from the heel to the tip of the big toe.

Knitted hat - beautiful protection

A child under one year of age has a soft area called the “fontanelle,” and until it heals, it is mandatory to wear a hat, which will protect and insulate the head. Such hats should be seamless and have a minimum of different fasteners - knitted ones are suitable for this role. In our catalog you will find knitting patterns to create beautiful hats of different types:

• classic hats;
• caps;
• hats-helmets.

And perhaps knit something individual for your boy or girl. The size of the cap is determined by the circumference of the head. A small baby’s girth is approximately 35 cm, then every 3 months it increases by an average of 4 cm and by the first year of life it reaches 47 cm. The hat should be knitted so that it can stretch slightly and at the same time not slide down onto the child’s forehead.

Knitted overalls for newborns

Overalls are a practical item in a child's wardrobe; they are easy to put on. There are two main types: overalls-bag and overalls with pants. The first type is convenient for home use, since the lower part can be unfastened and the diaper can be quickly changed, while the second type is mainly relevant for walks.

The size of overalls for newborn girls and boys is calculated based on the circumference of the chest, waist, hips, and height. It should be taken into account that babies grow quickly, and by the time the knitted item is ready, it may be small.

Accessories and decorations for babies

A one-year-old child does not need separate decorations, since knitted clothes are beautiful in themselves. Small details can be dangerous - children at this age love to taste everything. The only thing is that you can safely knit a scarf for your baby in addition to the hat and mittens. There is no need to make the scarf long; it is enough to knit it long enough to last one and a half turns.

If you still need to decorate your clothes, you can improvise with piping, tying things with picots or scallops, or adding lace. Such decorations are not suitable for things for boys up to the first year; in this case, it is better to rely on color and texture. For example, on hats for boys, patterns with braids and arans, alternating stripes of garter and purl stitch, will look great.

Choose the right yarn

The yarn must match the season for which the item is being created. Acrylic is suitable for winter clothes - it is warm, does not prick, and can withstand multiple washes. Despite its synthetic origin, it is hypoallergenic. Cashmere and angora are also suitable. Many manufacturers produce lines specifically for newborns - you can safely buy such yarn. Wool and mohair are not suitable for baby's delicate skin; they cause unbearable itching. Summer clothes are knitted from cotton yarn and bamboo. You should not use threads with the addition of lurex, sequins, etc. The yarn must match the number of knitting needles.

The simpler the clothes, the more comfortable and safe the baby

Avoid buttons - a child may tear them off and swallow them. The same goes for bells, tassels and other elements. There is no need to make applications - a child under one year of age spends most of his time in a lying position, the bulges can get in the way. In addition, overly decorated items are difficult to wash.

Pay attention to the density of the knit and the pattern

Choose simple patterns to knit an item faster. Do not knit the garment too tightly, otherwise it will pinch. Also, if you knit tightly, you risk getting a smaller size.

Knit items according to the current sizes of the baby

Tying for growth doesn’t always mean doing better. You cannot knit hats of a larger size - they will slip off and not protect the head. A child can drown in overalls, and babies react sharply to inconvenience. If the item still turns out bigger, put it aside until the baby grows up and knit something else.
