An unusual crocheted pillow can be not only a decoration for a sofa, but also a soft toy for your baby, with which you can play fun and have sweet dreams.
It is necessary
- - 200-300 g of acrylic yarn;
- - synthetic winterizer;
- - hook number 3, 5-4;
- - a tapestry needle (or a needle with a large eye).
Instructions
Step 1
With the help of a hook, you can knit absolutely any shape. Draw a pattern for the future pillow. Calculate the knitting density. To do this, knit a small sample and count the number of air loops for the first row. Measure the length of the sample and divide by the number of bars in the row. Then multiply this number by the width of the pillow. This will give you the number of chain stitches.
Step 2
Make a chain of stitches and knit in single crochet. Where necessary (if the pillow has a fancy shape), make increases or decreases. To add, knit 2 single crochets in one loop of the previous row. And to decrease, skip one loop, and knit the next in a column.
Step 3
It is very easy to knit a round fabric. First you need to make a chain of 5-7 air loops, then close them in a circle and knit round with single crochet, and in each row you need to make increments so that the circle turns out to be even.
Step 4
Tie two of these canvases. Fold right sides together and sew on a sewing machine or by hand. Leave a small hole unsewn. Fill the pillow with padding polyester or holofiber, you can also insert the finished pillow inside. Sew up the hole with a blind stitch using the same thread that was used to knit the canvas.
Step 5
For the feet, make a chain of two chain stitches. Then knit 6 single crochets into the second stitch and continue to knit in a circle to the desired foot diameter. Now knit straight without any increase or decrease to the desired paw length. Tie 4 such details.
Step 6
Fill the legs with filler and sew on the sides of the pillow. Tie 2 triangles (these will be ears), sew them to the head. Embroider the eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth. The toy pillow is ready.
Step 7
Thus, you can connect almost any animal (cat, dog) and cartoon characters. For example, it is very easy to knit Smesharikov.
