How to read the instructions?
The number in brackets at the end of each round is the total number of stitches in that round.
If there is an "x" after a bracket, the content of the bracket should be repeated as often as it is indicated there.
If an abbreviation (e.g. inc) is followed by a multiplication sign "x", then only the abbreviation should be
repeated as often as it is indicated there.
All pieces are crocheted in spirals, which means that at the end of the round no slst is crocheted.
To be able to see the end of the round better, you should mark it each time, e.g. with a stitch marker or a
thread. You will find a tip, how I always do it, in this video:

Filling:
How much do I have to stuff the cuddly toy? Make sure that the shape is clearly visible and that the cuddly toy
has no dents. But it should also not be rock hard. The ears are not stuffed at all in this instruction.
Colorchange:
There are a total of 5 different ways to change the color:

As soon as the figure starts to curve, you should make sure that you turn the crochet piece so that the crochet
hook goes into the cuddly toy from the outside to the inside, not the other way round. (Exception: If you crochet
with fleece yarn like YarnArt Mink, you should intentionally leave the inside out).
The filling cotton must not be seen through the stitches. Crochet nice and tight. Use a smaller crochet hook if the
holes are too big.
* Notes on yarn consumption: This is only intended as a guideline. Everyone crochets differently, everyone will have a
different yarn consumption. Example: While I use 3 balls of yarn for the big fox, there are people who use 5 balls of
yarn for that. There you can see how differently we crochet.

Mane /Tail:
Knotted:
Note on yarn consumption*:
Rico Creative So Cool + So Soft Cotton: approx. 30 g for the knotted mane
Scheepjes Furry Tales: approx. 20 g
The mane is applied after the ears and head are sewn to the body.
The number of strands can vary depending on the strength/thickness of the wool you want to use. Always cut a few
strands, knot them to the head/body and then see how many more are needed to prevent the mane and tail from
looking thin.
Ex. 1: At the brown pony with the mane from "Rico Creative So Cool + So Soft Cotton" are
-> 21 strands of 35 cm length in the tail.
-> 50 strands of 40 cm length in the mane.
Ex. 2: At the grey pony with the mane from „Scheepjes Furry Tales“ are
-> 9 strands of 35 cm length in the tail.
-> 18 strands of 40 cm length in the mane.
The tail is knotted approximately on the 10th round, around the 38th stitch. The strands do NOT all go into 1 stitch.
The mane starts at the forehead on the 14th round and runs in the middle between the ears, along the back, to the
24th/25th round of the body. This is the 4th/5th round from the neck.
After you have finished knotting, you can trim and adjust the tips. Orientate yourself on the photos.
1) Insert the crochet hook in the desired place and exit one stitch further.
2) Fold the thread, you want to knot, in the middle and pull it a little bit through the stitch with the crochet
hook.
3) The crochet hook remains in the created loop. With the crochet hook pull the two thread ends
4) and pull it through the loop on the crochet hook.
5) Done.

Crocheted:
Note on yarn consumption*:
Himalaya Dolphin Baby: approx. 60 g for the tail and mane, approx. 30 g per shade of brown
Scheepjes Catona: approx. 24 g for the tail and mane, approx. 12 g per shade of brown
The mane is attached when the ears are sewn to the head and the head to the body.
Altogether 26 curls are crocheted. 20 for the mane and 6 for the tail.
You can change the number of curls according to your taste.
As a general rule:
→ A curl always consists of a chain of chainstitches and in this chain crocheted sc.
→ The longer the chain, the longer the curl.
→ The more sc you crochet in a ch, the "curlier" the curl is and will be shorter accordingly.
→ As soon as you have crocheted a curl, you start directly with the new chain, so that at the end all curls are
connected.
→ Depending on the yarn you use and how loose/tight you crochet, the curl may "curl" less or more, so you need to
try it out and see what length is best for your pony.
→ If you want the curl to be less "curly", double every 3rd stitch. To the end of the curl you can also just crochet sc
without doubling. Then the curly part is only at the bottom of the tail and mane.
Tail:
1.-3. 31-35 ch, starting in the 2. ch crochet „1 sc, inc“. (3 curls)
Mane:
1. 25 ch, starting in the 2. ch crochet „1 sc, inc“.
2. 31 ch, starting in the 2. ch crochet „1 sc, inc“.
3.-4. 41 ch, starting in the 2. ch crochet „1 sc, inc“. (2 curls)
5.-6. 31 ch, starting in the 2. ch crochet „1 sc, inc“. (2 curls)
7.-10. 25 ch, starting in the 2. ch crochet „1 sc, inc“. (4 curls)

Note on yarn consumption*:
Scheepjes Catona: approx. 4 g for all 4 hooves for the pony from Himalaya Dolphin Baby
max. 1 g for all 4 hooves for the pony from Scheepjes Catona
