Stages of work

We will knit not an ordinary Santa Claus, but a toy ona Christmas tree or it can also be used as a car pendant, for example. However, everyone can find a use for such a toy themselves. Let's start knitting with red yarn. We need to knit a cone. This will be the main part of the entire toy. This is the body and the head and even the hat with a fur coat. We will start knitting from the top and finish from the bottom. To do this, we will make a sliding loop and knit six single crochet stitches into it. Pull the loop as tight as possible. It is necessary that there is no hole left. Next, we will make three increases. And we will get nine columns. We will knit a row without increases. And then we will make three increases again. And we will knit another row without them. We will make three increases again. And in the next three rows we will make six increases. Then we will knit two rows without them. Again, in two rows we will make six increases. And we will knit eleven rows without them.We will fill it with synthetic padding or any other filling materialtoys. And we will sew the hole with single crochets using white yarn. That is, we will insert the hook not only under the next loop, but also simultaneously under the loop on the opposite side of the cone.Now we'll make three air loops and turn around.and in the first four columns we knit two columns with a yarn over. Then we knit one column in each loop. At the end, again in four loops we knit two columns with a yarn over in each.The fur coat is ready. Now let's knit the legs.They will be knitted from red yarn. We will make two loops and now in the second one, if counted from the hook (the starting loop in knitting), we will knit six columns. In 2 rows, we will make six increases. And then we knit in a circle. In total, you need to knit two rows and make six decreases in the next one. We will knit another row without them. We will stuff with padding polyester and sew the hole. These are the legs that should turn out.Let's move on to the hands.We will make two loops and in the very first, that is, in the initial loop of knitting, we will knit six columns. In the second row we will make six increases. We will knit four more rows without them and change the yarn to white. This way we will separate the mittens and the sleeves of the fur coat. And the white yarn will imitate the fur on these very sleeves. We will knit two rows with white yarn. Change the thread again. And knit seven more rows. We will stuff and sew the hole.We will felt white wool to the main part in the formcircle. This will be the face of Santa Claus. We will also felt a pink ball of wool. This will be the nose. First we will felt it on a sponge and only then attach it to Santa Claus's face using a felting needle.We will form the eyes with brown wool.Instead of wool for the eyes, you can also use small dark beads. And from white we will make a beard. We felt the beard only on top and a little bit on the bottom. We do not touch it in the middle. After all, it should remain fluffy.We'll sew the arms on the sides and put them on top of the hat.a tassel or a pompom made of white yarn. This is how funny Santa Claus turns out! You can not only give him to your guests for the New Year, but also decorate the New Year tree if you sew a small loop on top.
