Congratulations! The easiest we made)) now proceed to the design:
1) To begin with, we comb all the details with a puncher
2) We take the head, sew the muzzle to it, look at the position in the photo. With pins pin the ears, then insert the third pin in the place where the middle abalone We leave this pin, we take out the ear itself.
As a result, we get this:
3) Now we make a tightening for the ears: we enter the corner from the bottom of the head, where we finished knitting.
The tip of the thread remains “hanging out”. Then we remove the needle in any eye, for example in the right where is the pin. We retreat from it 2 sc to the side and go back down, exactly at that the same place where the loop was first inserted. Now we have two ponytails of thread: which started and finished. we tie them, we get a tightening. Do a few knots, then cut the thread. Similarly for the second eyelet. Here are the sewn ears we got)
4) Now we make out the eyes. First you need to glue or attach them in a way, which fits your eye)
5) We begin to wallow. First we make such triangles with black wool (or not triangles), and on top we roll white stripes. In general, we focus on the photo:
6) then we finish the nose and mouth. Pull white the inside of the ears
7) Then we make a white thread under the eyes.
8) Comb the transition between black and white (CAREFULLY !!!) and collect the toy completely. I sewed the legs with a thread fastener.
You can knit a sweater at will
We take the knitting needles, we collect 48 loops. We knit two rows of garter stitch.
We knit the sleeves:
raglan = yarn, 1 front, yarn
1st row: 1 edge loop removed, 9 facial, raglan, 5 facial, raglan, 14 facial, raglan, 5 facial, raglan, 9 facial + purl marginal.
2 row: we knit all the loops wrong
3rd row: 11 facial, raglan, 7 facial, raglan, 16 facial, raglan, 7 facial, raglan, 11 facial
4th row: wrong side
5th row: 12 facial, raglan, 9 facial, raglan, 18 facial, raglan, 9 facial, raglan, 12 facial
6th row: wrong side
7 row: 13 facial, 9 facial we remove with a pin, 20 facial knit, 9 facial remove the pin, 13 facial wires we call.
8 row: purl all the loops that remained unmet
9 row, etc. to the length you need: we knit with the front surface
Then close the loop.
We return to the mittens, remove the loops on the knitting needle, knit with the front stitch the number of rows necessary for your “size”, then close the loops. With the second similar.
That’s what we got in the end !! In the process of preparing MK another raccoon but a different color, and I did not find the first color.
