Please do not reproduce, distribute, translate, sell or change the pattern and images in any way.
It’s prohibited. However, feel free to sell the finished products/toys.
Have fun crocheting!
The finished toy is approximately 16 х 16 х 7 cm.

Gauge*:
for pages with hook 3 mm: 10х10 cm = 26 stitches x 30 rows
with hook 2 mm in spiral rounds: 10х10 cm = 34 stitches x 34 rounds
* In this project, the gauge is not important, I indicate my gauge only for an example.
If your gauge is different, then the book will turn out bigger or smaller than mine.
Materials and tools for crocheting

● 4-ply sport weight yarn * (amounts are approximate**), 1 skein = 50 grams:
○ beige - 3 skeins
○ green - 1.5 skeins (you may need 2)
○ light brown - 3/5 skein
○ coffee - 1/4 skein
○ orange - 2/5 skein
○ gray - 1/10 skein
○ dark green - 1/10 skein
○ for decorating a little light blue and mustard yarn
*I used YarnArt Jeans (55% cotton + 45% Acrylic), 174 yards (160m), 1.76 ounces (50 g):
Colors: beige 05, green 69, light brown 87, blue 17, coffee 71, orange 28, gray 46 , dark
green 82, light blue 75, mustard 84.
**Yarn consumption can increase up to 1.5 times when crocheting with yarn over (YO) way.
And the finished book will have a bigger size.
The weight of the finished book is 260-270 grams.
● Needle for sewing on details, scissors, thin needle for eyes embroidery, sewing
pins, stitch markers (optional).
● Some black and pink (optional) thread for embroidery (I used YarnArt Jeans yarn,
dividing it into 4 threads).
● Hook size 2 and 3 mm.
● Optional: baking sleeve for rustling effect (as a rustling element).
● Optional: sewing magnets with the PVC cover (4 pieces), diameter from 1.5 cm.
Note: magnets of a smaller diameter weakly magnetized through two layers of
crocheted fabric. You can take one magnet with a diameter of 1 cm (for paws), and
another with a diameter of 1.7 cm, then it will also work well. If you don't use
magnets, then the paws need to steam well.
● Squeakers (optional), for the dinosaur on the cover, it is recommended to use flat
squeakers, for example 53 mm x 10 mm.
● Rattle (optional) for the dinosaur in the egg (22 mm x 10 mm).

Recommendations (notes)
● All pieces, unless otherwise indicated, are crocheted in spiral rounds (without
joining, NO slip stitch, NO chain 1) or in turning rows.
● When crocheting pieces in a spiral round, in most cases, decreases and increases
should be located on the sides of the pieces. If necessary, you can move the place
of increases/decreases forward or backward.
● You can put rustling elements in dinosaurs (can be made from a baking sleeve, use
6-8 layers). In some pieces, you can put squeakers, rattles or sew magnets
(optional).
● Please sew on all small parts VERY tightly.
● The toy must meet the safety requirements defined in toy safety standards:
○ Toys for children under 36 months old should not have small parts (a small
part is any object that fits completely into a specially designed test cylinder
57.1 mm long by 31.7 mm).
○ Cords shall have a length less than 220 mm (if toys are intended for children
under 18 months) or less than 300 mm (for children under 36 months). The
laces do not form a movable or fixed loop, the perimeter of which is more
than 360 mm.
● Sometimes you need to crochet front loop (FLO) or back loop (BLO) only:

floss). For the embroidery I use one of these threads.

THE FIRST STEGOSAURUS PAGE
Start with the beige color yarn, hook 3 mm.
Make 35 ch.
chain, ch, turn.
Next, we will crochet a pattern using the intarsia method according to the chart
(text description below):
How to work with the chart (for all pages):

The numbers on the cells indicate balls of yarn,
crossed out numbers - cut and fasten off the yarn.
1 cell = 1 sc.
Underlined cells (for example, in the 4th row) - crochet stitches back loops only.
The yarn colors must be changed in the last sc of the old color (see photos and the
video below).
!!! But if there is a * sign in the cell, then it is necessary to crochet the sc completely
with the old color, the next sc is crocheted with a new color (i.e. the first sc of the new
color will have the loop of the old color, and the post will be a new color).
After changing colors, always leave the yarn on the wrong side.
Here, the even rows are the right side, the odd rows are the wrong side, that is, in even
rows - leave the yarn behind your work, and in odd rows - in front of your work.

Change of yarn color (R4 as an example):
start crocheting the 2d sc as usual (in beige color), grab the new (green) yarn
but don’t crochet it all the way (2 loops on the hook)
and pull it through the loops on the hook crochet BLO 4 sc with green color, start crocheting the 5th

change the color to beige again (use the yarn from the second skein of beige color) and crochet to the end of the

next stitch, crochet 1 sc per row. At the end of the row, make invisible fasten off. Secure
the yarn ends. Hide the ends of the yarn inside the pages. Repeat for the other side of the
binding.
The child's name can be embroidered on the cover or other personalization can be made.
You can crochet an eyelet for attaching to a stroller or crib.
You can add a wooden ring or teether to the binding by attaching it to a crocheted loop.
