While the girls are small, mothers, depending on the budget and their knitting skills, determine for themselves which dresses are most suitable for their daughters: purchased or handmade. It is convenient that children's stores are filled with knitwear, but they are more of the same type and not always original.
This can not be said about the dress, if it was created with your own hands, and with a creative approach.
Famous designers often resort to knitting needles and threads to create dresses that not every mom can afford. But no one bothers you to pamper your daughter with the most beautiful knitted dresses, if you master the basics of knitting and learn how to combine patterns.
The scheme of a knitted dress for girls up to 1 year
This openwork dress consists of a yoke, made with a pattern of "leaves", and a skirt.
The top is knitted in a circle, without seams, from soft but warm yarn.
To create a drape top, measure your neck circumference. The density of the knit and the thickness of the thread, taking into account the circumference of the neck, will determine the number of leaves.
Also do not forget to make a button closure.
The scheme for the skirt is shown below.
Sew a skirt and a yoke, and as a decoration, stretch a satin ribbon.
Dress "Flower" for girls 2-4 years old
To create a simple a-line dress with beautiful flowers, you need white cotton threads - 200 g, as well as red and purple threads, knitting needles and buttons for fasteners.
Knitting density: 10 x 10 cm = 20 p. X 25 rows.
- With 98 loops of white thread for the back, knit 12 rows according to pattern 1.
- Change the thread to purple and tie a strip of 2 rows of front smooth, while the first row is evenly reduced by 8 loops. Tie such a strip of white, and then of red thread. Knit the rest of the fabric with the main white yarn.
- In each 4th row, reduce one side loop on both sides until there are 62 loops in the row.
- To form a fastener, close 4 loops located in the center, 35 cm from the bottom of the back, and then knit the halves separately. From the same row, start closing the loops for the armholes: in each 2nd row, 3 loops twice and 2 loops twice.
- After another 14 cm (at 49 cm), close the first 8 loops on both sides, and remove the remaining central 22 loops on the auxiliary knitting needle to process the neckline.
- Before the dress, it fits in exactly the same way as the back, only on the 10th row from the red strip go to the scheme under number 2 "Flowers".
- Having knitted 35 cm from the bottom of the front, close the loops for the armhole, and to form the neckline at 43 cm, first close the 8 loops located in the center, and then on each side in the 2nd row 4 loops, twice 2 loops and twice in 1 loop.
- Also, knitting 49 cm from the 1st row, close the remaining loops and sew the shoulder bevels.
- To process the neckline with an inlay, remove the loops from the extra knitting needle and dial the missing ones on the shoulder sections. Obtain the obtained 62 loops in two rows with a garter stitch with a purple thread.
- The armholes also tie with purple yarn.
- From each edge of the fastener, dial 40 loops and tie 4 rows with an elastic band. Make slits for buttons on the right bar, and sew buttons on the left.
- Embroider stems with thread.

- The central 17 loops for cutting the neck of the front are closed 45 cm from the bottom of the front. Further from the edges of the cut - 3 loops, twice 2 loops and three times along the 1st loop. Finish knitting at the same height as the back.

- Having knitted 4.5 cm from the first row, in each 2nd strip consisting of purl stitches, reduce the number of stitches by one. For example, from 5 to 4, knitting together two loops. Given the changes, continue to knit according to the pattern.
- Having knitted 9 cm from the beginning of work, reduce the number of purl loops in the remaining strips.
- For 15 cm in each 2nd strip, knit 3 facial loops together. Accordingly, the number of purl loops between openwork tracks will increase to 7.
- After another 2 cm, reduce the number of purl loops in strips to 6, through a row to 5 loops.
- Having knitted 19 cm from the beginning, in each 2nd strip, reduce the number by another 1 wrong loop, and after 3 cm, reduce the number in the other bands consisting of the wrong loops.
- In the same way, reduce the number of loops to 3 at a height of 22 and 23 cm, then to 2 after 4 cm, that is, 26 and 27 cm, and to the 1st loop at 34 and 36 cm from the start of work.
- Next, knit openwork tracks with one wrong loop until you reach the desired skirt height.

- Close 3 side loops on both sides, continuing to knit in this order: 5 loops of garter stitch, 2 stitches. smooth surface, openwork track, 2 p. out. smooth, 26 p. of persons. iron, and then in reverse order - 2 p. out. smooth surface, openwork track, 2 p. out. smooth and 5 loops of garter stitch.
- To make an armhole, reduce on both sides twice the 1st side loop in each 2nd row. Knit another 10 cm.
- To cut the neck, close 6 loops located in the center, then in each 2nd row on both sides close 4 loops, twice 2 loops and twice the 1st loop.
- Having knitted 18 cm from the beginning of the formation of the armhole, the loops are closed.
- The back fits exactly as before, only the neck is made at a height of 12 cm from the beginning of the formation of the armhole. First, the middle 16 loops are closed, then in each 2nd row - on the 1st loop 6 times. Also, having knitted 18 cm from the beginning of the formation of the armholes, all the loops are closed.
- Sew the shoulder bevels and crochet the neckline. You can dial loops and tie in two rows of garter stitches.
