Our master class with a detailed description and photos will teach how to tie a toy crochet - donkey.
One of the most popular cartoon characters,which we know is a donkey. For example, everyone's favorite Eeyore. Donkeys are very stubborn animals, but nevertheless they are very cute. In this master class we will crochet a donkey. Our donkey will be small in size. And it is very suitable for a gift or a small souvenir for dear and close people. For work we will need:
- yarn of brown and light gray color;
- hook;
- eyes;
- needle;
- glue (hot);
- sintepon (sintepuh or other filler).
Let's start with the body.Knit with brown threads. At the very beginning, you need to make the first loop and another one. After that, we make six columns in the very first loop. And then we will knit two columns in each loop of our new row.Again, you need to add loops in a new row. And here we add them through a loop, that is, in one loop we knit one column, and in the other - already two.Now we knit two columns into the loop, and into the second - already one column, two columns, one.All necessary increases for knitting the part have been made. The next six rows will be knitted without them. Let's start decreasing. First we need to make two decreases in a row. Then in another row - also two. And in the following rows - three decreases.When the hole is small, fill it with synthetic padding.The body for the donkey is ready.Let's move on to the face.For this work we will need to use both gray and brown yarn. Let's start with gray threads. We collect a chain of four loops. In the first and last loops we need to knit two columns, and in the remaining loops - one column.The next row does not change. And it is knitted one column per loop.We continue knitting like this: in one loop - 1 column, and in the next - two columns. Then we will alternate.We will knit the next four rows according to the same pattern - one single crochet into the loop.We continue working with brown yarn.We make one single crochet in each loop. In one loop - 2 columns, in the next - 1 column, continue like this to the end of the row. In the first loop - 1 column, and in the second - 2 columns. Four rows in a row, knit one single crochet into a loop. Start making decreases. First, make two decreases in two rows.Next - three decreases in a row. Fill with padding polyester. And finish knitting the head.Let's move on to the ears.For them we will also use yarn of two colors. With gray color we cast on 5 loops in a chain. In the first and last loops - 2 columns, in the rest - one column.Then we knit 1 column in the first loop, two columns in the next one, and so we alternate.Next, with brown threads, knit one single crochet into the loop. Continue like this for two rows.One ear is ready. We knit the second one in the same way.Knit the legs. Let's start with grey threads. In a loop - 6 single crochets.Next, 2 columns - in each loop of the previous row.We continue working with brown yarn. Three rows of one single crochet into a loop.We knit three more legs in the same way. There should be four in total.Let's sew all the details into place.For the donkey, we'll take some artificial eyes and glue them on. The donkey will look more interesting with big eyes. That way, his face will look funny and a little surprised. And with white threads, we'll carefully embroider the eyebrows of our donkey. We'll make the nostrils on the muzzle with black ones. That's how cute and friendly our donkey turned out.
