Instructions
Step 1
You can knit a goat from any yarn of medium thickness, light shade. However, a toy made of fluffy threads: mohair, angora or plush will turn out to be softer and sweeter.
Step 2
Start knitting from the head. Make a chain stitch and cast on a chain of three chain stitches and close them in a circle. Tie the first row with half-columns. Then knit the rest of the rows in single crochet stitches.
Step 3
In the third row, double the number of stitches. To do this, knit 2 stitches in each loop of the first row. In the fourth, make 9 stitches, knitting 1 single crochet into the first loop, and 2 each in the second. Continue to knit in this way until the end of the row. In the fourth row, knit in the same way. As a result, you should have 14 columns. Knit the next 2 rows without increments.
Step 4
Continue knitting the goat's face. Knit the seventh and eighth rows of the part, making increments in every second loop of the previous row. Then work 3 rounds (rows 9-11) without increments. After that, knit in reverse order, decreasing the loops in each next row. Knit in this way up to 15 rows. Fill the head detail with padding polyester and tie 2 more circles with decreases. The result should be an elongated piece that resembles a nesting doll.
Step 5
Now start knitting the body of the goat. Cast on a chain of three air loops, close them around and knit further with single crochet, increasing the number of stitches in each subsequent row.
Step 6
From the 8th to the 16th rows, knit the part without allowances. After that, start making the deductions in the reverse order. After knitting 20 rows, fill the body with a padding polyester and continue knitting the part, making decreases.
Step 7
Tie 4 legs. Cast on 3 stitches, fold them in a circle and knit in single crochet stitches straight. At a distance of 5 cm from the beginning of knitting, finish the work. Sew the hooves with brown threads.
Step 8
Make goat ears. Cast on an air loop and knit 4 columns into it. Then knit 2 rows in a circle, increasing the number of stitches in each by 1. Then knit in reverse order, making decreases.
Step 9
Tie the goat's horns using brown yarn. Cast on 1 air loop, knit 2 stitches into it, add another one in the next row and knit with single crochet straight stitches. At a distance of 2 cm from the beginning of knitting, finish the work.
Step 10
To keep the parts of the legs, horns and ears in shape, insert a wire frame into them. Cut pieces of thick wire according to the size of the parts. Insert them inside. Lightly fill the elements with padding polyester.
Step 11
Sew the head to the body with blind stitches with white thread. Then sew the ears and horns to the goat's face. Using the Moment glue, attach the eyelashes and glue the finished eyes. Sew the legs with blind stitches to the lower part of the body.
