Mermaid set
knitting master class

Author: Nadezhda Khegai @pinky_pinky_blue

Attention, this master class is an addition to the basic master classes:
Cupcake with cherries and strawberries, Cupcake with blueberries and
lemon, Ice cream 2 in 1, Donut.

You will need:

YarnYarn Art Jeans07 (beige), 01 or 62 (white), 76 (turquoise), 79 (mint), 36
(pink).Alize Cotton Gold Hobby522 (light mint), 01 (cream),Alize Cotton
Baby184 (light pink), 335 (light blue), Yarn Art Cotton Soft07(beige). Hook
No. 2.25 or the one you are used to knitting from this yarn depends on
your knitting density, thin hook No. 1.25.
Dessert cupFinetti Dips and Sticks, 2 wooden sticks for manicure, glue
gun, multi-colored beads, a needle for beads, monofilament for sewing
on beads, pearl beads (2 large for shells) and half beads for decoration, a
piece of plastic (a sour cream cap will do), a needle with a wide eye and
blunt end, blue fur.

Legend:
KA - amigurumi ring. Vp - air
loop. Sc - single crochet. Psn
- half-column with a crochet
Sn - column with a crochet.
SS - connecting column.
Vyp sbn - convex sbn (the hook is inserted not under the upper walls of the loop, but
under the leg of the column)
Prib - increase.
Ub - decrease
( )*n - repeat the combination in brackets n times.

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Cocktail
We need a glass of Finetti dessert.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Trim the top edge of the cup

with scissors.

@pinky_pinky_blue

With YAJ 79 yarn, we begin to tie the cup. It

is necessary to tie a circle 1 mm wider than
the bottom of the cup. If you knit a circle
according to the standard pattern, 6
increments in a row one above the other,
we will get a hexagon that will not match
the shape of the cup.

To smooth the corners, you need to shift

the increments. To do this, knit the first 2
rows as usual:
1.6 sc in KA.
2.approx *6
3.(1 sc, inc) * 5, and the last, sixth
increase in this row is shifted 1
column to the left, it will go to
next row. That is, from now on, we knit
the increments not over each other, but
over the column that comes after the
increase in the previous row. The
boundaries of the rows are lubricated
here, focus solely on the increases of the
previous row.

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Thus, you need to tie a circle, slightly wider than
the bottom of the cup, complete the sl-st. How
many rows you get depends on your knitting
density

@pinky_pinky_blue

To go to the walls, knit 1 row of sbn behind the

back wall of the loop. Subsequent rows - for both @pinky_pinky_blue
walls of the loop.

We tie the cup to its full height, constantly

trying on and making increments as
necessary. The number of rows and
increases will depend on your knitting
density.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Now we knit another circle according to the size of

the upper diameter.
@pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Cut a circle out of plastic, 1-2 mm less
than a knitted circle, glue it from the
inside with a gun.

@pinky_pinky_blue
@pinky_pinky_blue

When you insert the cup into the harness,

apply glue to the bottom, let it fix,
otherwise it will bubble.

Fill the cup with sintepuh and sew a

circle sealed with plastic on top.

@pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue

Now we take the yarnYAJ76and knit a chain

equal to the circumference of the top of the
cup.

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Knit 1 row sc, 2nd row 5 sc, then 4 dc,
alternating along the entire length.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Now we knit the streaks: 5 sbn, 4 ch, go

down the chain sbn, 4 sbn, the next chain,
for example, 6 ch. Knit streaks of arbitrary
length, the interval between them can
@pinky_pinky_blue
also be from 2 to 6 sc. Steam off with an
iron.

Now you need to embroider this detail with beads.

It was more convenient for me to stick first, and
then sew on the beads. If it is convenient for you
to sew on the beads first, stick them on later.
Beads of different colors are densely sewn with a
bead needle and monofilament in 2 additions.

@pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Now you need to tie the whipped cream for the
top of the cocktail. This part is very similar to the
marshmallow from my MK, but much larger in
size.
We knit a circle of 8 rows with white yarn, the
corners will not interfere with us here. (YAJ 01 or
62). But, try to adjust the knitting density so that
the diameter of the circle exactly matches the top
of the cup.
1.6 sc in KA
2.inc*6=12
3.(1 sbn, prib) * 6 \u003d 18
4.(2 sbn, prib) * 6 \u003d 24
@pinky_pinky_blue 5.(3 sb inc) * 6 = 30
6.(4 sc, inc) * 6 = 36
7.(5 sc, inc) * 6 = 42
8.(6 sbn, prib) * 6 \u003d 48

If you knit tighter than I do, the cream may

come out smaller in diameter.
Then knit a larger circle, the main thing is to bring
the number of columns to a multiple of 8.

9.Knit 1 row sbn behind the back wall of the loop@pinky_pinky_blue

no extras.

10.We knit 6 sbn (for both walls of the loop), then

we return to the 6th sbn and insert the hook
under its leg, knitting
convex sbn. Thus, we have 2 columns
knitted from the sixth sbn at once: 1 sbn
and 1 issue sbn. Repeat until the end of
the row, you should get 8 sts and 6 sb
between them.

@pinky_pinky_blue
If you connected the circle more, by 56 sb,
then between the convex columns in the
10th row there should be 7 sb.

@pinky_pinky_blue
11-12.knit according to the pattern: (6 sbn, 1 issue sbn) * 8

@pinky_pinky_blue

13.(5 sbn, skip or reduce in any way 1

@pinky_pinky_blue sbn, 1 issue sbn) * 8.

14.(5 sbn, 1 issue sbn) * 8.

15.(4 sbn, skip or subtract 1 sbn, 1 issue

16.(4 sbn, 1 issue sbn) * 8

18.(3 sbn, 1 issue sbn) * 8
19.(2 sbn, skip or subtract 1 sbn, 1 issue sbn)
*8
20.(2 sc, 1 issue sc) * 8. At this stage, you can
@pinky_pinky_blue
stuff the part, but not too tightly. The bottom
should not protrude much.

@pinky_pinky_blue
 21.(1 sbn, skip or subtract 1 sbn, 1 issue

22.(1 sc, 1 issue sc) * 8.

25.Skip 4 issue sbn through 1. @pinky_pinky_blue
26.4 issue Sat. Leave a long end.

Thread the end of the thread into the needle, pass through the
tip and bring it out through the bottom.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Pull the thread so that the tip is bent, fasten the @pinky_pinky_blue
thread at the bottom.

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Glue the cream on top of the cocktail.

@pinky_pinky_blue

For the tube, we take a wooden stick for

manicure and insert it into the cream at
a slight angle until it stops. Trim the top
end to your desired length.

@pinky_pinky_blue

yarnACB 184we knit a tube:7 sbn in KA and

further without increases in height. The
height of the tube should be
protruding part of the stick. Finish ss.
@pinky_pinky_blue

We dress the strapping on a stick and sew the

end of the thread to the base (cream).

@pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue
 Mermaid tail for decor knit from ACB 335. The tail is
knitted according to the description of the ice cream
cone (basic MK) from rows 1 to 7, but completely
behind the back walls of the loops.

@pinky_pinky_blue

See the description of the tail fins in the @pinky_pinky_blue

description of the cupcake, they fit the same
way.

We knit a star in the same way as for a donut,

only with yarnYAJ 36And2 details. We sew both
parts together over the edge.

@pinky_pinky_blue

We decorate the tail and star with

pearl beads to your taste. @pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue
We knit a waffle tube with YACS 07 yarn
and hook No. 1.25. Cast on 25 ch and knit
sc rectangle 24 sc * 20 rows.
Do not break the thread.
@pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue
Now we knit horizontal lines with
connecting posts every 2 rows. The lines
are knitted without interruption, to go to
the next line, go sl-st along the edge.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Now, in the same way, we knit lines

perpendicular to them on the same side
with an interval of 2 sc.

@pinky_pinky_blue
Cut off one end of the nail stick straight. Now glue the waffle onto
this stick, tightly wrapping it around.

@pinky_pinky_blue
@pinky_pinky_blue

We insert the waffle tube into the

cream and sew.

 Cupcake striped
knits according to the basic MK "Cupcake with
blueberries and lemon." The base, the cupcake
itself, is knitted according to the description. The
upper part is knitted with changes, yarnACGH 522
AndACB 335. Here you will need to dial fewer
loops: 25 ch and knit 24 sc in each row. The @pinky_pinky_blue
number of rows is saved. We also sew the part into
a ring.

We pull together the top and bottom edges

not completely, leaving a hole, and sew the
holes together with a few stitches. You don't
need to hit here.

@pinky_pinky_blue

If desired, you can sew beads. I sewed

it partially, in a small strip. @pinky_pinky_blue

@pinky_pinky_blue

14 rows inclusive.

@pinky_pinky_blue

Fill the tail quite a bit with @pinky_pinky_blue

sintepuh, it should remain flat.
Sew up the hole.

For fins dial 8 ch. We knit 1 ss, 1 sb, 1

secure the thread. The tail will curve slightly to
one side.
