@pinky_pinky_blue

All the next rounds crochet through the back

@pinky_pinky_blue

Crochet spiral rounds up without inc,

8 sc in every round.

@pinky_pinky_blue
Crochet total 29 rounds, finish with sl st,
leave a long end.
Fold the chenille wire in 2, and preferably 3
additions. Twist and insert into the handle,
cut off excess, sew up the hole.
@pinky_pinky_blue

Bend the upper end of the handle, glue and

additionally sew along the edges. It is best to
do this in the place where the last red row
ends and the white begins, so we hide the
@pinky_pinky_blue joint.

Attach the lower end of the handle

(glue and sew)

@pinky_pinky_blue

Mark the places for attaching the decor and

make tightening with a needle, as shown in
the photo: a long stitch next to the handle for
@pinky_pinky_blue
a gingerbread man and a point tie on the left
side for a candy cane.

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Join brown yarn to the front loops of the last
red round and crochet 1 round sc to the left
from the handle, increasing every 10th st,
until you get to the handle from the right side.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Crochet the second row in the opposite

direction: 3 sc, 5 ch, 4 sc down the chain,
3 sc, 3 ch, 2 sc down the chain. You can

intervals, according to your taste.

Crochet the second hand in the same way.

Slightly stuff the hands, keeping their flat shape,

@pinky_pinky_blue and sew to the body along the inc lines.
Also slightly stuff the body and head, sew the
opened bottom. Steam well with an iron to make
the gingerbread flat.

Glue black flatback beads with a superglue

(the hot glue doesn’t hold plastic details well),
embroider the mouth, button and strips on
the hands.

 Crochet all the next rounds through back
loops only. 1 sc, 7 htr. Pull out a long loop
and take out the hook.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Join red yarn to the beginning end of the

white yarn. Make a new red working loop in
the first white sc and crochet 8 sc through
back loops. Pull out the red working loop and @pinky_pinky_blue
take out the hook.

Return to the white working loop and crochet

@pinky_pinky_blue 8 htr. Then go back to the red round of sc.
Thus, crochet in height alternately in two
colors.

Crochet in this way about 7 cm in heigh.
