KNITTING WITH NEEDLES FOR GIRLS DRESS

Knitted dress with lace raglan lines for a girl up to one year old. The model is worked from top to bottom, in rows (back and forth), with buttons fastening at the back from top to bottom. Yarn Ninni Bebe Nako (100% acrylic; 425m/50g) – 1 skein. Needles No. 2.5. 17 buttons. We start knitting from the neckline. Cast on 78 stitches and without joining in the round, knit 2 rows in stockinette stitch, then 3 rows in garter stitch. In the next row, distribute the stitches as follows: 6 stitches in garter stitch, 10 stitches in stockinette stitch (this is part of the back), increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 1 knit stitch, increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 10 stitches in stockinette stitch (these are the sleeve stitches), increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 1 knit stitch, increase 1 stitch, 22 stitches in stockinette stitch (these are the front stitches), increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 1 knit stitch, increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 10 stitches in stockinette stitch (these are the sleeve stitches), increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 1 knit stitch, increase 1 stitch by making a yarn over, 10 stitches in stockinette stitch, 6 stitches in garter stitch. Continue knitting in the established order in stockinette stitch, simultaneously executing the increase pattern for the raglan 2 times from the 1st to the 19th row = 238 stitches in work (approximately 10 cm). After knitting 50 stitches for each sleeve, knit 1 cm in garter stitch and bind off these stitches. Next, knit the front and back together as one piece (do not join the back), in stockinette stitch and with 6 stitches in garter stitch on the edges. Knit for 4 cm, then knit ribbing 2 knit x 2 purl for 3 cm. In the next row, make increases every 1 stitch = 276 stitches and knit for 23 cm, then knit 2 cm in garter stitch and bind off the stitches. Make 9 buttonholes spaced 3 cm apart on the right side of the back. Sew the remaining 7 buttons to the front (see photo) as decoration and sew one onto the bow. Knit the bow: Cast on 24 stitches and after knitting 2 cm in garter stitch, bind off the stitches. Gather it, forming a bow in the middle with yarn, sew the bow to the center of the belt, and sew on a button. Make a cord 20 cm long and sew it to the bow, as shown in the photo.
