To make a “bee” costume you will need: 100 g of YarnArt Samba yarn (100% polyester, 100 g - 150 m) yellow; 50 g of black AdeLia Olivia yarn (40% wool, 60% acrylic, 100 g - 250); 20 g of black mohair yarn, 50 g of black lurex yarn; knitting needles No. 5, hook No. 3.
Knitting density: 13 p. and 20 p. = 10 x 10 cm, knitted on needles No. 5 in stockinette stitch.
Sundress: knit in two threads - black AdeLia Olivia and mohair yarn. Cast on 56 stitches and knit 6 rows with black yarn in two threads. Then continue, alternating 4 rows of yellow yarn and 6 rows of black yarn. After the 5th strip, cast off all stitches with yellow yarn. Continue working, returning to the cast-on edge and start knitting the skirt: crochet No. 3 according to pattern 1 with black yarn with lurex.
Straps: on the central 18 loops of the bodice, cast on 9 loops for each strap, respectively, and knit each in stockinette stitch with lurex yarn 40 cm long.
Leg warmers (2 pieces): cast on 27 stitches on needles No. 5 and knit 6 rows with 1x1 rib.

Assembly and finishing: sew the leggings along the side seams. If necessary, insert a regular black elastic band into the hollow elastic band. Also sew the sundress bodice. Sew the petticoat. To do this, you will need 60 cm of black tulle with sparkles, 150 cm wide. Fold the fabric in half to make a strip 150 cm long and 30 cm wide. Sew on the fold side at a distance of 1 cm from the edge. Pull the elastic band into the resulting drawstring.
You can complement the costume with yellow or white wings and a hoop with antennae. Wings and antennae can be bought at any children's store; they are inexpensive and look very impressive.

A masquerade outfit carefully made by yourself always looks more original and comfortable than any, even the most expensive, factory model. To create a truly unique thing, you don’t have to be an experienced needlewoman. First, try knitting a simple children's Christmas tree costume bees. It will consist of a vest (short or long) and a hat.
You will need
- - Fancy yarn of dark brown and orange color;
- - two knitting needles;
- - iron with steam function;
- - gauze;
- - a needle for making connecting seams;
- - applique or other decorative elements as desired
Instructions
- Choose a suitable fancy (or other spectacular) yarn - the final result of your work will largely depend on its structure and aesthetic qualities. The knitted fabric should be fluffy, elastic, soft and pleasant to the touch - wear knitted costume It will be on a thin cotton T-shirt, the baby should feel comfortable. To knit a masquerade outfit from threads of a complex structure, choose large-sized knitting needles (from Nos. 3-3.5 and larger).
- Knit a short sleeveless vest for a boy or a long sleeveless tunic for a girl. Calculate the knitting density and cast on the required number of loops on the knitting needles. Start working from the back, doing garter stitch (in all rows - only knit stitches). To make it New Year's costume, decorated with wide stripes 5-6 cm wide, alternate dark brown and orange working threads.
- Make a straight linen before the opening of the sleeves; at the same time, individually adjust the required length of the future masquerade outfit. For armholes, you need to close ten loops at the beginning of the front row (and then at the beginning of the subsequent purl row).
- Once you have made the armholes, continue knitting the striped brown-orange back to the beginning of the neckline. The last 5-6 cm of the part must be trimmed with a 1x1 elastic band and closed off the loops in the purl row. Knitted costume It will look more complete if the colors of the bottom of the canvas and the neckline match.
- Knit the front part of the New Year's outfit bees exactly according to the pattern of the finished back of the product. Please note that the boundaries of the alternating color stripes of both parts must coincide with each other.
- Iron the finished back and front costume A bees through a piece of moistened gauze. Carefully sew connecting seams on the shoulders so that there is a large horizontal neckline.
- Cast on loops starting from the corner of the back armhole of the product, along the entire length and to the end of the front armhole. Tie a 1x1 elastic band - it should form a single whole with the New Year's cutout costume A.
- Start working on your orange yarn headdress. Along the forehead line, measure the circumference of your head with a centimeter and calculate the required number of loops based on your knitting density. It is recommended to knit a “bee” hat with a 2x2 elastic band. Work until the top begins to round, and check the desired size of the product individually.
- Begin rounding the top of the hat on the knit rows: knit two stitches together every 10;8;6;4;2 stitches until only a few stitches remain on the working needles. Tighten them with thread and sew the back seam of the knitted headdress. If desired, you can decorate it before applique with the image bees or even make a hat out of fabric and sew ears (stuffed with padding polyester) with pompoms at the ends.
- All you have to do is choose a knitted one to match costume at bees orange or brown plain tights and orange slippers with an elastic band.

New Year is a magical holiday that brings happiness and an atmosphere of warmth to your home. And along with home celebrations, matinees and performances are also held in kindergartens, theaters, and concert halls. And to all these events, parents want to bring their children dressed up. New Year's costumes. Costumes can be bought in a store, made to order or made by yourself.
DIY bee costume for a girl can be done even if you don’t have cutting and sewing skills. The simplest option: a yellow T-shirt and a skirt made of black and yellow tulle, tights and a headband with springs on the head. The skirt is easy to make: strips of tulle are tied onto a thick elastic band that fits the child’s waist, alternating yellow and black stripes. The more stripes, the fuller the skirt. If you have at least basic sewing skills, then the skirt can be made multi-layered, alternating colors.
You can knit a bee costume for a girl with your own hands if your mother knows how to do needlework. If you use knitting needles, knit in garter stitch. When using a crochet hook, the top and leggings are knitted with regular stitches, and the skirt openwork pattern. Knitted dress will look unusual on a little fashionista. When knitting from “grass” yarn, the fabric will not be smooth, but shaggy, like a real bee. Only a skirt in this case no need to make it very lush.
You can put a dark headband with springs or any other on your head, onto which you can attach wire with pompoms, large beads or balls from scrap materials.
Let's consider several options: an outfit for a very small child, for a girl preschool age and for the boy.
Bee outfit for baby
For small children, the outfit should be easy to put on and take off. To create such festive clothes you will need:
- yellow and black satin;
- threads with a needle;
- hidden zipper;
- bias tape for edging the neck and armholes;
- ruler and chalk for drawing the outline.
Take a fabric and attach a sundress or a T-shirt to it? Leave a seam allowance and trace along the outline. Cut and sew shoulder and longitudinal seams. The base is ready. Then cut out strips of satin (future flounces) equal in height and assemble them onto a thread. Starting from the very bottom, sew the flounces to the base, alternating in color. We process the neckline and armholes, sew in a zipper.
For the wings, you can use cardboard, which must be covered with yellow satin. There is no need to make large wings, because they will interfere with the baby, the baby will try to tear them off. The resulting sundress is worn both over a T-shirt and a turtleneck if the room is not very warm.
For a little boy, instead of a sundress, they sew overalls.
The finishing touch will be mustaches, which can be made from wire with pompoms and sewn to a hairband or hat. Since small children do not like hats, you can make a bug mask from a hat. Sew a felt mouth, eyes and nose onto a yellow hat. The child will be happy to wear such an accessory.
Bee costume for a girl for a matinee in kindergarten or the theater can become as complex as the skills of the mother-craftswoman allow. The top can be plain or striped, the skirt can be made “sun” from satin or tulle. It can be multi-layered with a different number of flounces. A headband with twisted mustaches, a hat or cap is made on the head. Black tights, striped leggings and dark shoes are worn on the legs.
There is no insect without wings. How to make wings? For a do-it-yourself bee, the wings can be large, but they should not interfere with movement. There are several creation options:
![](https://i1.wp.com/hendmeid.guru/wp-content/auploads/408702/devochki-doshkolnicy.jpg)
The wings can be sewn onto a costume or you can make elastic bands and put them on the child like backpack hangers. In this case, it is better to use a thick black elastic band.
New Year's suit for a boy
For a boy, the outfit of an insect such as a bumblebee is more suitable, which can consist of a striped vest, shorts and a mask with antennae. A vest with shorts can be made of satin, or it can be made of plush. The vest should be made using a T-shirt to fit, just leave seam allowances. The shorts can also be made striped or black. If you don't have shorts, you can wear trousers. A headband for a boy is not suitable, so we select a dark or yellow hat for the costume, onto which we sew mustaches made of wire with pom-poms or beads at the ends. If you don’t have beads that match the color, you can make balls from plasticine.
Ready-made costumes can be decorated with tinsel to match the color of the clothes, sparkles or sequins.
