Needlework sites are often full of knitted furniture for Barbie, but the description leaves much to be desired. This master class shows in detail the knitted furniture for dolls with a description of the work and step by step photos.

What you need for a knitted sofa:

• a skein of thread;
• a piece of fabric 20 * 7 cm;
• foam rubber 19*6*6 cm;
• hook,
• needle,
• threads for sewing to match threads for knitting.

Making a knitted sofa:

In the length of the foam rubber we collect air loops with thread for knitting. In our product, this is 47 loops;

We knit an even fabric with single crochet columns 13 cm in height (our product has 24 columns);

We sew the fabric to the knitted piece of fabric and sheathe the foam rubber.

On the sides we collect 13 loops and tie the foam rubber on the sides.

The next step is the manufacture of the back of the sofa and armrests. In a semicircle, as in the photo, we collect loops in this way (13 loops on the sides, 47 air ones (this will be the back) and 13 more loops from the other side). We knit 24 columns without a crochet and fasten the last loop.

On the inside of the back on the 1st row from the bottom, we collect 73 loops and knit 4 rows of columns with a crochet, attach to the base of the sofa and then knit 12 rows of columns without a crochet. We connect with the second layer. In the process of joining the two parts, it is necessary to evenly fill with padding polyester or other light material.

Sew evenly on the back of the sofa in 3 places, thus decorating the sofa.
