Children's scarf

With the onset of cold weather, many parents are thinking about how to update the wardrobe of their crumbs. After all, the vagaries of nature should not be an obstacle to walking. Especially in winter there are so many interesting activities: you can play snowballs, go to the skating rinks and ride a sled! For a child to spend enough time in the fresh air, he must be warm and comfortable in any weather.

In addition to winter clothes, the baby needs functional and bright accessories. Take for example a scarf. So that the baby does not catch a cold throat, it is simply necessary. Sweatshirts and jackets with a high collar hardly cope well with this task.

If you approach the choice of children's scarf creatively, then he can not only protect your child from wind and frost, but also give him a good mood.

It is especially difficult to choose a model for a daughter. The range of scarves for girls today is huge. Little fashionistas always want to be beautiful, and winter is no exception! Couturiers are aware of this and do not forget to create children's models in accordance with the current trends of the fashion industry.

Most often you can see the following types of scarves:

• classical;
• clamp (snud);
• palatine;
• Arafatka

The first option is the basic and most popular. Most often for the kids just buy the classics. However, such an element can be found in the wardrobe for every person, regardless of gender and age.

Snud is good because it replaces the cap. It is used as a hood or straightened around the neck.

The palatine is a wide scarf that will warm not only the neck, but also the shoulders of its owner. Some models even reach the waist. Usually, thin knitwear or other not very voluminous materials are used. Since it is very wide on it embroideries and large patterns easily fit.

Arafatka is a small scarf, it is tied like a scarf.

Previously, they were made exclusively of fabric, but now you can see knitted arafatki. It turns out very original products that can perfectly complement the image of both men and women.

What scarves are popular in the winter of 2016-2017? In a fashion fluffy scarves of pastel and bright colors, emphasizing the charm of young beauties.

For energetic babies who cannot sit still for a minute, more practical products will do. For example, from knitwear, it is still in trend.

Many girls like bright models with cartoon characters. They can be embroidered with multi-colored threads or knitted and attached to the canvas.

Fox scarf is another interesting option for lovers of original solutions. You can play with it as with a toy, which means it’s likely that he will like the crumbs more than a regular scarf. Popular today and winter children's dreams with muzzles of animals.

Older girls will certainly appreciate the elongated models of large mating. These seemingly massive accessories only emphasize the fragility of their owners. In general, knitted products still confidently hold positions in the charts. Designers do not get tired of inventing new pieces that breathe new life into the good old knitted scarf.

Thanks to this, they are worn even by teenagers.They can be of various modifications: collar-scarf, scarf-tube, scarf-neck ... These models come from a variety of materials.

For those who do not want every time to tie a scarf around his neck, there are many alternatives. This is a shirt front, products with velcro, a scarf with buttons or with an eyelet.

Scarves for carrying a child or slings are more for the convenience of moms, and not for warming babies. They are usually made of thinner materials. Slings can be bought or made independently. With the help of the ring, the wide scarf becomes a real cradle for the baby and evenly distributes the load of its weight.

It is believed that 1.2 meters is the optimal length for children's scarves. She will wrap the scarf around the baby’s neck twice. You can take and shorter. If you buy a product with a length of 70 cm, then this is enough only to tie a knot. For winter wear this will not be enough. The width of the scarf in 10 cm, perhaps, will be the best. Moreover, if the yarn is easily stretched, you can simulate its parameters, which is very convenient.

However, no matter how beautiful and interesting a child's scarf should be remembered, an equally important criterion when choosing it is its material. Products made of polyester quickly lose their shape and often their appearance deteriorates significantly after several washes.

More often for the production of scarves is taken viscose. Products from it are more pleasant to the touch and not so quickly lose their presentation.

And the best choice, although perhaps not cheap, would be natural materials - cashmere and wool. Fleece models are good because they allow the skin to breathe and keep the temperature in spite of lightness and puffiness. The material removes moisture, which means the child will not catch cold.

It is very important that the material does not irritate the delicate skin of the child. This is especially true when it comes to hand-knitted scarves. Unfortunately, not all the yarn marked “baby” on the shelves is suitable for creating children's things. It can be prickly and even cause redness. Soft wool, such as alpaca, is preferable. Mohair is not the best option, as its long pile often ends up in the baby’s mouth.

Knitted patterns can decorate various braids, nubs and other unusual embossed ornaments. Not bad for a scarf such a binding, like an English gum, which consists of alternating facial and purl loops.

There are other options for rubber bands:

• twisted (Bulgarian);
• Igzag;
• lock;
• Polish;
• with the loop removed;
• semi-english;
• Norwegian

To make the scarf more original, you can make any openwork pattern, but such delights are more appropriate when knitting women's summer scarves or shawls. Thick matings with diamonds, checkers or waves, perhaps, fit more. There is a huge number of variants, the main thing is to show imagination.

When choosing jewelery color is taken into account. Is the product monophonic or combines several shades? Equally important is the texture of the model. If the knitting is large, with plaits or other ornaments, then crocheted flowers will obviously be overkill. In this case, it is better to add a fluffy fringe, for example. The child will like that his favorite scarf has changed, and the product itself will look harmonious.

Miniature flowers or beads will look better on a thin canvas, preferably in a pastel shade. You can pin a brooch or a badge to it, but this is not the best option for a children's accessory, since the needles do not always hold securely in the clasp.

Alternatively, scarves are decorated with embroidery or even small pom-poms. Sometimes you can find a variety of models with toys. The main thing is that such decorations are securely attached, otherwise after the first wash only a glue stain or a thread will remain from them. The same goes for rhinestones. Cheap products with artificial stones and sequins usually do not stand the test of water.

Here, perhaps, there can be no strict recommendations. One thing is for sure: children prefer bright colors.Threads of gray, blue, white or other soothing colors are usually chosen to work on a scarf for a boy.

But when choosing a color scheme for girls, the palette of shades is simply enormous and can only be limited to the colors of its caps and other things.

If we talk about ornaments, animal prints will be very helpful. Children also like their favorite cartoons on things, and the scarf is no exception.

Yet the most popular, perhaps, is the striped print. The narrow multi-colored stripes on children's scarves look good, but you can expand them to wide inserts and connect the parts of the product with colored threads. Gradient transitions look pretty sophisticated. This effect is easy to achieve if you buy a special thread.

Many famous brands create clothes and accessories for children. Among them are Gaudi, Denny Rose, Finn Flare and others.

Popular with girls are products from Hallo Kitty.

Among the various brands that are in demand, we can mention the company Reima. These things have earned the trust of customers for their practicality and high quality. Reima products are certified and comply with all requirements and standards, are completely safe for the child.

So, summarizing the above, let's say the following. The scarf should be:

• practical;
• mild to the skin;
• pleasant for the baby colors;
• blend in with the rest of the clothes

Also look carefully at how the child looks in this product. Some scarves are so large that they cover the floor of the baby face. Perhaps such equipment would be unnecessary. Will it not interfere with the crumbs run and bend, will it be comfortable for the child to turn the neck and look around? If the model does not have these defects, then the scarf is chosen correctly and you, like your baby, will be happy with the purchase.
