HEAD AND BODY
Head and body fit in one piece. We knit from the head.
1.6 sc in Magic Ring
2.6 inc = 12
3. (sc, inc) * 6 = 18
4. (2sc, inc) * 6 = 24
5. (3sc, inc) * 6 = 30
6. (4sc, inc) * 6 = 36
7. (5sc, inc) * 6 = 42
8.-13. = 42 (6 rows)
Between 12 and 13 rows we put markers for fastening the eye. Distance
between eyes approximately 12 sc. If the eyes are on a secure mount,
strong them now. Cut out circles from felt for proteins, paste in them
eyes and fasten the eyes.
14. 16 sc, skip 10 sc, dial 4 ch, 16 sc = 36
15.2sc, (dec, 4sc) * 5, dec, 2sc = 30
16. (3sc, dec) * 6 = 24
17. (2sc, dec) * 6 = 18
18. = 18 sl-st (if you do sc, the neck will “hang out”, sl-st as it strengthens
neck and you knit the next row not in them, but in the previous one with the sl-st grip)
We stuff the head and begin to knit the body.
19. – 20. = 18 (2 rows)
21. (2sc, inc) * 6 = 24
22. = 24
23.14 sc, 6 inc, 4 sc = 30
*** Allowances should be under the bottom of the future trunk. If
If there is an offset, then we knit 23 row, taking into account the offset.
24. = 30

31. (3sc, dec) * 6 = 24
32. = 24
33. (2sc, dec) * 6 = 18
34. (sc, dec) * 6 = 12

ASSEMBLY AND DECORATION
If the eyes are sewn or glue, then sew them now. First
we cut out proteins from felt, we attach them to the eyes.
Where will the eyes be made (in place of the eye at the 1st stage of knitting we
set markers). (If the eyes are on a secure mount, we also do
weights at points as shown in the photo.) After weights are made
fasten the eyes.
Cut out circles for ears and legs from the fabric. We sew them. Can tie
circles of yarn. The yarn should be thinner than the main one, for example AlizeSofty.
Sew the connected circles.
Sew on the ears.
Sew the ears between points 2 and 3 for the loops on the ears between points 1 and 2
(See photo. Point 1 center. From point 1 to point 2, approximately 4 rows, between
points 2 – 2 and 3 – 3 approximately 7 rows.
Sew handles and legs.
We attach the pens to the pins where we like, we look so that everything is smooth.
If you like everything, then we introduce the needle from the inside of the handle, output tobutton, enter into the hand and then into the body. Further according to the scheme. Affairsrepeatedly. After we tighten the thread and display in the pen where they entered.Tied to knots. The ends of the thread are displayed at point 5 (see photo. Point 5between 5 and 6 rows from point 6 – center). We’ll make a tail of them.
Sew the legs in the same way.
TAIL
From the ends of the thread weave a pigtail, fix it and make a brush.
Embroider eyebrows.
That’s all.
