Knitting for women probably has no boundaries. Pullover, sweater, jumper, poncho, cardigan - this is not the list of knitted tops that you can create with your own hands using knitting needles and thread. In the article we will analyze modern women's sweaters, knitted in 2018, and photos with diagrams.

On the eve of the cold season, large knitted models are in particular demand; by the way, they are very popular today, sweaters with dense braid patterns, blouses made of soft and warm mohair. Let's also consider cotton options. These sweaters are popular all year round. In the summer they are indispensable on cool evenings, and in winter they can be worn to the office or indoors.

Yarn for women's sweater

A women's sweater or pullover can be made from absolutely any yarn. If you need a cozy, warm and winter model, then you should choose soft wool, such a thread includes:

• alpaca;
• merino;
• mink fluff;
• angora;
• mohair or kid mohair (the finest mohair on an acrylic or silk base).

Thread may vary in thickness. For voluminous knitting, you can choose a thick thread and knitting needles of the corresponding number. Then you need to knit a simple pattern without openwork. A warm sweater can also be knitted from a thin thread, the main thing is that it contains wool. Openwork is also good for fine yarn.

A pullover made of kid mohair with an openwork pattern looks very feminine. It is weightless, gentle and will warm you in any cold weather.

Sweater with a beautiful raglan

This model is distinguished by elegance and simplicity. It is made from DROPS NEPAL yarn (65% wool and 35% alpaca, 75 meters per 50 gram skein), but you can take any other yarn with a similar meter. For size M you will need 600 g. Knitting needles are recommended No. 5.5 circular.

Let's get started:

The sweater is knitted in the round from the neckline. We cast on 66 loops on the knitting needles, divide them into back, front, sleeve and raglan loops. We knit 2 rows in the round using garter stitch. Then for the back we knit 2 rows back and forth, not in a circle, in order to form a neckline, then we knit in the round. The raglan is knitted according to the pattern below, the rest of the fabric is knitted in stockinette stitch.

Having reached the end of the raglan (you need to check the given pattern), we put the sleeve loops on additional knitting needles and knit the front and back parts in the round to the desired length, while making additions according to the pattern to expand the fabric. On the sides below the raglan we continue knitting according to the raglan pattern. Having reached the incision site, we separate the front and back parts on the sides and finish separately in order to make the incision. We knit the last 4 rows in garter stitch. We close the loops.

We knit the sleeves in the same way, making decreases to narrow them, according to the pattern. We knit 7 centimeters at the end of each sleeve with a 2*2 elastic band.

Sweater with jacquard yoke

A very feminine, beautiful and quite simple sweater, with the exception of the yoke with a jacquard pattern, which you will have to work on to get such a stylish new thing.

To work you will need:

1. DROPS AIR threads (70% alpaca, 23% polyamide, 7% wool, 150 meters per 50 grams) in two shades. It is not necessary to use this particular yarn; you can choose a thread with a similar yardage.
2. Circular knitting needles No. 5.

Let's get started:

We cast on 80 loops on the knitting needles and knit several rows with a 2*2 elastic band to form the neckline, evenly adding loops around the circle to expand the fabric. On the back we knit 2 additional rows, going back and not closing the circle.

Next we knit in the round again. According to the pattern, we begin to knit a jacquard yoke pattern according to the pattern. When the yoke is knitted, we put the sleeve loops on additional knitting needles and continue on the front and back parts on circular knitting needles until we reach the desired length, evenly adding loops on the sides for a slight expansion, according to the pattern. We finish the work with several rows of 2*2 elastic.

Then we return to the sleeves and knit each of them on circular knitting needles in stockinette stitch, finishing the knitting with a 2*2 rib.

The main thing here is not to choose openwork and not to knit capes, since from thick yarn they will look like they have very large holes.

For the pattern, you can use a pearl pattern: alternately knit the front and back loops in the front row, the back row - according to the pattern. Next front row: change the order and knit over the knits - purl and over the purl - knit.

First we knit the back according to the pattern given below. Here we immediately start knitting with a pattern, without an elastic band. Then we knit the front part in the same way, but with a deeper neckline.

We start the sleeves with 2*2 elastic and then move on to the pattern. We check the sleeve with the pattern.

Then you need to knit 2 patch pockets, starting with a pearl pattern and ending with several rows of 2*2 elastic.

Jumper with flared openwork edges

This model has two amazing, striking features: the color of the thread and the openwork flared edges. It is made of section-dyed cotton. This thread creates the effect of a smooth transition of shades in the product. Openwork edges make the jumper unusual and stylish.

By choosing any model of women's knitted sweater, the description and photo with patterns of which are given in this article, you can be sure that in this new thing you will look stylish and fresh, according to fashion trends in 2018. In order for the knitting process to be enjoyable and the result to please you, you should take into account some tips from experienced knitters:

1. Before starting to work on a sweater, you should knit a small square with the main pattern chosen for the product, with the same knitting needles and from the selected threads, in order to calculate the number of loops. This test sample must first be moistened, then dried, and then the loops must be counted.
2. To knit complex patterns, you can make a pattern from paper with the necessary measurements or copy the pattern from a product that fits well on your figure. While knitting, constantly check this pattern.
3. It is better to assemble the parts using a special knitted seam using a needle and thread from which the product was knitted.
