(we do not crochet the row to the end).
Scarf
We crochet with knitting needles of size number 3, we collect 14 loops, then knit in stocking stitch to the desired size. At I got about 30 cm.
If you don’t have the skill knitting – nothing scary, you can connect crochet scarf. For this dial 15 ch and in the second from hook start knitting sc to the end of the row. Then turning rows complete the whole canvas scarf of the required length.
Assembly
We sew the handles between the 24th and 26th rows of the body, at an angle. In order to do this as smoothly as possible and symmetrically, first secure the handles with pins and only then sew on with thread.
We sew the muzzle between the eyes and lightly stuff it so that it protrudes a little forward.
A nose is embroidered on the muzzle, as shown in the photo. For mouth and mustache design separate from the main thick thread a thin thread, and she embroider elements. So they become more accurate and correspond to the sizes toys.
The ears must be located between 34 and 36 body rows, approx.
At a distance of 6 single crochet from peephole (also at first mark their position pins).
Sew the tail on the back between 14 and 15 rows body.
It remains to tie a scarf and your crochet amigurumi toy is ready!
Tip: don’t try to sew everything exactly to the millimeter, in the case of amigurumi toys it almost impossible because rows go in a spiral.
And if my recommendations for accurate the location of the parts of the toy go against your vision do as you see fit.
After all, it is a creative process each toy is obtained unique.
