*in this crochet pattern I made a toy of YarnArt Jeans, using 2.2 mm hook

* the consumption of plush yarn on a large toy is slightly less than a ball of each
color, except white; while color – a full ball with stock

 semi-cotton yarn (~330 m/100 gr.) (Gazzal

Jeans, YarnArt Jeans, Alize Cotton Gold, etc.)
(yarn consumption pf each color is less than 50
gr.):
- deep-brown (shoes);
- brown (trousers);
- white/ivory (beard, mustache, eyebrows, hair,
strips on sleeves, pompom);
- mustard (shirt);
- cream (head, nose, ears);
- red (strips on sleeves, beret).

MR – magic ring;
CH – chain;
SS – slip stitch;
St – stitch;
SC – single crochet;
HDC – half double crochet;
PS – puff stitch (DC5TOG cluster);
INC – increase (work 2 stitches in the same St);
DEC – decrease (2SC together through the front loops);
BLO – back loops only;
FLO – front loops only;
(SC, INC)*6 (18) – repeat the combination in brackets 6 times, the
number in brackets is the total number of St in a round.

First, we are going to crochet arms, as they are going to be attached

in the process of crocheting.

all amigurumi toys (oval-shape detail);
1. start in the 2nd chain from the hook: 3 SC, 3 SC into
the last chain from the hook, on the other side: 2 SC,
INC (10);
