The pattern of this bolero is a rectangle, one side is the sum from the thigh line to the length of the back from the neck, and the desired width of the collar, the other side is equal to the sum of 2 sleeve lengths and back width.

We connect a sample of threads, 12 loops wide and 12 rows in height. We will measure the sample and calculate how many loops should be typed and how much it should be to get the canvas of the desired size. We round the number of loops to a multiple of 4.

We select on the spokes a certain number of loops and knit it with an elastic band 2x2 (we knit alternately two face loops and two purl loops). When we knit the wrong side, we knit as the loops look, i.e. We sew knit loops over the back loops, we sew knit loops over the face loops. The face series begin and end with a facial loop, and we sew the purl series at the beginning and at the end of one of the wrong ones. Facial rows are knitted in this way: 1 front and alternately 2 purl loops, 2 facial, complete with 1 facial loops. Thus, when assembling the part, you can achieve an inconspicuous and neat suture.

Thus we knit the fabric to the required length. We will remove the rectangle and close the loops. Fold the fabric in half across. We will make lateral seams, we will leave for hands a slot. We will fasten the edges of the bolero with an openwork pattern or an elastic band. Use the hook or knitting needles.

We also decorate the bolero with flowers from satin ribbons or knitted flowers or we will make a hook-hook, a button, and a ribbon.

Let's try the hooded version. To do this, before the strapping and after assembly, we will assemble along the edge of the neck additional hinges and knit, until the linen becomes the desired height. Close the hinges and sew the top of the canvas, while forming a hood.

Experiment with the elements and strapping and get a unique children's bolero, it will be an ornament for a small fashionista.
