HEAD AND BODY

The head and body are knitted in one piece. We knit from the head.
1. 6 sc in MR

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 the 12th and 13th rows we put markers for attaching the peephole.

The distance between the eyes is approximately 12 sc.

We cut out circles from felt for albumens, i nsert eyes into them and fasten the eyes.

14. 16 sc, skip 10 sc, make 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 сс (if you do sc, then the neck will “dangle”, slst, as it were, strengthens
the neck and you knit the next row not in them, but in the previous one with the

capture of slst)

We fill 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

*** Increases should be under the bottom of the future trunk. If a shift occurs, then

we knit the 23rd row, taking into account the shift.

24. = 30

25. 14sc, (inc, sc)*6, 4sc = 36

look ***

26. – 29. = 36 (4 rows)

30. (4sc, dec)*6 = 30

31. (3sc, dec)*6 = 24

32. = 24

33. (2sc, dec)*6 = 18

34. (sc, dec)*6 = 12

35. 6 dec = 6

We stuff the body, pull the hole.

Arms (2 parts)

1. 6 sc in MR

2. 6 inc = 12

3 – 6 = 12 (4 rows)

7. 3 dec, 6 sc = 9

8 – 9. = 9 (2 rows)

10. dec, 7sc = 8

11 – 13 = 8 (3 rows)

Fasten the thread, cut it, leaving about 15 cm. Stuff the arms, tighten the hole.
LEGS (2 parts)

1. 6 sc in MR

2. 6 inc = 12

3. (sc, inc)*6 = 18

4. (2 sc, inc)*6 = 24

5. BLO 24 sc

6. = 24

7. 2sc, (dec, sc)*6, 2sc, dec = 17

8. 5 sc, 3 dec, 6 sc = 14

9 – 12 = 14 (4 rows)

13. dec, 5 sc, dec, 5 sc = 12

14. = 12

Fasten the thread, cut it, leaving about 15 cm. Stuff the legs, tighten the hole.
Trunk

1. We make 14 sc through the hole on the head (10 sc from above and 4 from below

along the ch)

2. = 14 sc

3. = 13 sc

We make decrease from the underside of t he trunk, in all rows where there are

decrease.
4. = 12

5. (3sc, inc)*6 = 30

6. 3sc, (inc, 3sc)*4, inc, сс

Fasten the thread and cut.

ASSEMBLY AND DESIGN

If the eyes are sewn on or glued, then sew them on now.

First, we cut out the whites from the felt, attach them to the eyes.

Where there will be eyes we make tightenings (in the place of the eye at the 1st

stage of knitting, we put markers). (If the eyes are on a secure mount, we also make

tightening points at the points as shown in the photo.) After the tightening is done,

we fasten the eyes.

Cut out circles from the fabric for the ears and legs. We sew them on. You can knit

circles of yarn. The yarn should be thinner than the main yarn, for example

AlizeSofty.

We sew connected circles.

Sew on the ears.

We 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 on arms and legs.

We fasten the arms to the pins where we like, we look so that everything is even.

If you like everything, then we insert the needle from the inside of the handle, bring

it out into the button, insert it into the arm and then into the body. Further according

to the scheme. I do it several times. After we tight en the thread and bring it to the

arm where it was injected.

We tie in knots. We draw the ends of the thread at point 5 (see photo. Point 5

between 5 and 6 rows from point 6 is the center). We will make a tail out 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. We embroider

eyebrows.

That’s all.
