The most elegant and sophisticated item in a woman's wardrobe is a cardigan. A variety of shapes, design methods and knitting allows you to choose the perfect pattern that will harmoniously fit into your style and image. The cocoon cardigan is unusual and original; it is a seamless product that adds nobility and luxury to its appearance. This item can be safely worn to a holiday, business meeting, official or cultural event.. The cocoon looks elegant, sophisticated and allows you to create trendy looks.

The product moderately fits the silhouette, holds its shape perfectly and adds femininity to the image. Made from yarn of different compositions and densities, it is very popular. They use dense threads made of natural wool with the addition of acrylic, polyester and cotton, as well as with a small addition of nylon or elastane. Modular knitting and step-by-step assembly will allow you to get a stylish “cocoon-shaped” item that will adorn any woman.

Softness, elegance, smooth lines - these are the main characteristics of the product, which is suitable for absolutely all women, regardless of age and body shape. A warm item will protect you from the cold and wind in cold weather and will become the main accent of your winter ensemble. A light openwork product will add a special twist to a summer look and emphasize the inimitability of the style.

Who is it suitable for?

A jacket in the “cocoon” style perfectly models the silhouette, hiding figure errors - lack or excess of volume. The knitted pattern is equally suitable for skinny people and women. The product will magically transform its owner and add femininity to the silhouette. Overweight ladies, using medium-length models, will be able to hide excess volume of the hips and abdomen, too full breasts and a massive décolleté area.

Fashionable looks

The jacket goes well with things of different styles and shapes. How and with what to wear a cocoon cardigan, your own intuition will tell you. A fairly voluminous and lush sample goes well with simple and discreet things. You can use straight and pencil skirts or high-waisted sundresses. Summer ensembles include light midi or maxi length dresses, shorts, tops, T-shirts, and sleeveless blouses. In winter, you can wear golf, a turtleneck, a shirt, insulated trousers or a straight skirt made of thick fabric.

The choice of materials for the elements of the ensemble is determined by its purpose. For a business style, knitted dresses and skirts made of suiting fabric are suitable. Summer looks include openwork jackets, jeans, and linen sundresses. A street look can be created with knitted jackets in combination with an acrylic or viscose dress or gabardine skirt. A hood and skirts made of denim or leather will add sportiness.

Shoes and accessories

To decorate a woman's image, add height and elegance to the silhouette, it is best to use high-heeled or stiletto shoe samples. For business and official style, closed shoes and high boots are suitable. Loafers or boots with a lock will help you create a street look. Girls who prefer classics can safely use over the knee boots, elegant sandals, and ballet shoes.. For a country walk, slip-ons, sneakers, moccasins or sneakers are useful.

You can use jewelry or costume jewelry as accessories. A woman's look will be decorated with beads or silver earrings, a necklace, a chain, or a gold ring. A neckerchief, an elegant scarf, or an exquisite bracelet will highlight your individuality. The main accent of the style can be fashionable glasses, a gadget or an elegant watch.

When it comes to knitting a cardigan, the first thing that comes to mind is a knitted cardigan. Indeed, there are a lot of models of knitted cardigans on the Internet using knitting needles. Probably because a cardigan is most often something long and warm, and warm things are knitted mainly with knitting needles.

But, in recent years, crocheting has become no less popular than knitting. You may be surprised, but needlewomen have come up with many dense and elastic patterns that are crocheted. The Internet is replete with models of sweaters, warm cardigans, and jackets crocheted rather than knitted. Of course, openwork summer cardigans do not stand aside either. We have compiled a new selection of 46 knitted cardigan patterns.

Description of cardigans collected in our selection

Did you know, how to crochet a cocoon for a newborn? The first and main condition is to knit with pleasure! Things in which you invest part of your soul, positive thoughts and bright emotions will undoubtedly turn out to be the most beautiful - that is, exactly the kind that is needed as a gift for a newborn. Well, for everything to turn out as it should, you should be charged with inspiration: when your eyes are burning, when the idea catches you so much that you don’t want and can’t think about anything else, when you want to devote every minute to creativity, your hands will create incredible beauty on their own. . A crocheted cocoon for a child is not only a beautiful thing, but also useful: in winter you can sleep in it, walk in it, it is cozy, warm, convenient and comfortable. If you have doubts about what to give to your sister or any other loved one on the occasion of the birth of a child, do not hesitate, this is a good option!

So, let's get inspired and knit crochet baby cocoon!

How to crochet a cocoon - 5 master classes:

1. Cocoon for a newborn with a relief pattern

There are things that, despite the relative simplicity of the model, still look incredible - stylish, beautiful, attractive, original. A cocoon for a newborn with a relief pattern is just such an option: the simplest model, but it looks a hundred points precisely thanks to the perfection of lines, weaves, bulges and knots.

2. The simplest cocoon with horizontal stripes

Do you want something simple, but with a twist? Think, maybe these horizontal stripes are exactly what you need? They are unobtrusive, do not catch the eye, and do not attract 100% attention, but at the same time they decorate the item very organically and delicately, giving it a unique look.

3. Simple cocoon bag

A model ideal for beginners: if you are still comfortable with crocheting, love to knit, but don’t feel confident in complex patterns, consider this option. Despite the fact that such a cocoon is knitted quite simply and quickly, the product turns out to be on the level: stylish, interesting, beautiful. The recipient will definitely appreciate it!

4. Cocoon with buttons

Some things are beautiful, some are comfortable. And there are ideal ones, in which the master managed to organically combine external attractiveness with absolute convenience. A cocoon with buttons is a thing of just this kind: it not only looks stylish and incredibly beautiful, but also proves its practicality and functionality in use.

Beginners can sew such a charming cardigan. The cocoon cardigan has a loose fit, it is comfortable and warm, and most importantly it covers the hips, so you can safely wear leggings and other tight pants with it. The cardigan has a fashionable cocoon-shaped silhouette. It is very easy to make, take a look at the pattern and you will understand everything.

Look how good the cardigan looks - it is long and flowing. It can be sewn not only from knitted fabric, but also from light flowing fabric. The cardigan is one-size-fits-all and will suit any body type.

So let's get started!

You will need:

  • about two meters of knitted fabric
  • threads
  • sewing machine
  • overlock

Cut the fabric into two rectangles, 76 cm (30 inches) wide and 102 cm (40 inches) long. The dimensions on the pattern are in inches!

On the inner corners of the pattern, mark 5 inches (13 cm) at the top, 10 inches (25.4 cm) at the bottom - connect the dots in a semicircle, cut off the excess. Outside corners are 11 inches (28 cm) at top and 18 inches (45.72 cm) at sides. Connect two points with a straight line - cut off the excess. Repeat in mirror with another piece of fabric.

Now all that remains is to sew the parts. First we sew the center of the back together, then the top right corner to the bottom right, repeat the same with the left side.

Now all that remains is to make the holes for the arms. Measure along the seam - step back 5 inches (12.7 cm) from the edge, repeat on the other side - cut off the excess.

Now all that remains is to process the edges of the product. See photo
