The most beautiful models of amigurumi animal patterns are on this site for free. I shared with you the amigurumi sweet cow model in this article.
To knit toys, you will need yarn of the following shades:
➢ Vanilla (in Pekhorka’s “Children’s novelty” it is called “severe”) – the main one (for the body)
➢ Soft pink – for muzzles
➢ Flesh light – for horns
➢ Fleshly dark – for hooves
For clothes:
➢ pink
➢ coral
➢ white
Some wool yarn for the bangs (I cut about 30 strands)
For braids 110 strands of 55 cm.
Safety eyes 12 mm. If you are using eyes with a smaller diameter, then you need felt for the whites of the eyes – cut out circles with a diameter of 15-17 mm and make a hole in them, into which you insert the peephole.
I glued the eyelashes to the inside of the eyelet with Moment glue.
➢ Hook 2.00
➢ Fabric for the petticoat and some lace for trim
➢ Needle for stitching parts
➢ Cardboard for insoles
When using these materials, the height of the toy is about 34 cm
Abbrevations:
ch – chain
sc – single crochet
sl-st – slip stitch
HDC – half double crochet
inc – increase
dec – decrease
We knit the details in a circle, connecting the rows of sl-st. Each new row starts with a ch up.
When knitting parts connected in a spiral, MK has a special indication of this knitting method.
