For many kids, the most favorite toy is not the most expensive and bright one, bought in a fashion store. Sometimes it is enough to have a couple of multi-colored balls of yarn, floss threads, a little effort - and before you is a unique doll. If you make toys from threads with your own hands and allow your child to take part in this exciting creative process, the result will pleasantly surprise you.
It is necessary
- - a skein of beige or pink acrylic threads;
- - some brown yarn;
- - multi-colored floss;
- - hook;
- - scraps of fabric;
- - ruler;
- - a needle;
- - scissors.
Instructions
Step 1
Take a beige or pink yarn and cut a 40 cm long section from the ball. Use this pattern to make a tight bundle of thread, then fold it in half.
Step 2
Trim the bottom of the resulting yarn bundle (it consists of the free ends of the yarn) with sharp scissors. The top of the blank is the future head of the doll.
Step 3
Step back 5-6 cm from the crown of the head and make a doll's neck - tightly tie the yarn with a cut of thread. Be sure to use threads from the main ball for bandaging so that they are not conspicuous. Their "tails" can be tucked into the toy body.
Step 4
Measure 9 cm from the toy's neck and make another sling - in front of you the torso of the toy. To make a boy doll, you need to divide the lower bundle of yarn into two identical parts (legs), then tie each one.
Step 5
The basis of the girl doll is made according to the described model, but the legs can be omitted - the freely hanging threads of the lower part of the product will serve as a skirt for the toy.
Step 6
Separately fold a bundle of threads about 15 cm long - these are the hands of the future toy. They are also fastened with threads at the ends, after which the finished limbs should be threaded through the toy torso.
Step 7
For the toy boy, make a bang: using a crochet hook, pull brown scraps of woolen or acrylic fibers through the top of the workpiece, then tie them in the middle into a knot.
Step 8
Make a hat. Crochet a ring of 4 air loops and start making circular rows, adding loops (from each column of the lower row - 2 at once).
Step 9
Make another smaller crochet circle. Run a hand seam along the bottom edge of the part and tighten with a hemispherical crown. Stuff it with unnecessary trimmings and sew to the larger mug (the brim of the headdress) with a blind stitch. Use a few stitches to secure the hat to the doll's head.
Step 10
Put a bunch of yellow threads on the head of the girl doll and sew them along the center line - the line will fall in the form of a parting. Tie the ends of the "hair" into buns and decorate with red ribbons.
Step 11
It remains for you to beautifully decorate dolls from threads. Sew a sundress from multi-colored scraps of fabric for a girl, shorts and a vest for a boy. If you are good at crocheting, clothes for thread toys can be made from knitted fabric. And the finishing touches - embroider the face with multi-colored floss threads.
