Keep your foot tight.
30 row: (5 sc, decrease) * 3 (18 loops)
31 row: (1 sc, decrease) * 6 (12 loops)
32 row: 6 decreases (6 loops)
After both legs are completed they need to be sewn to the body. Came live legs to the body and using
sew a long piece of gray strong thread to sew through the upper part (between lines 4
and 5 ry ladies on top) to the body (between lines 11 and 12 of the rows), and then also on the 2nd leg. Repeat again in
reverse order through the body and leg. Repeat again, pull the thread and fasten. Thus legs
will be mobile.
Hands
We start with a pink thread:
1 row: 6 sc in amigurumi ring (6 loops)
2 row: 2 sc in each loop (12 loops)
3 row: (1 sc, increase) * 6 (18 loops)
4 row: (1 sc, increase, 1 sc) * 6 (24 loops)
5 row: (3 sc, increase in every 4th sc) * 6 (30 loops)
Change the thread color to gray
6 row: we knit for the back half loop 30 sc
7-9 row: 3 rows of 30 sc (30 loops)
10 row: (8 sc, decrease) * 3 (27 loops)
11-12 rows: 2 rows of 27 sc (27 loops)
13 row: (7 sc, decrease) * 3 (24 loops)
14-15 rows: 2 rows of 24 sc (24 loops)
16 row: (6 sc, decrease) * 3 (21 loops)
17-21 rows: 5 rows of 21 sc (21 loop)
22 row: (5 sc, decrease) * 3 (18 loops)
23-27 rows: 5 rows of 18 sc (18 loops)
28 row: (4 sc, decrease) * 3 (15 loops)
29-33 rows: 5 rows of 15 sc (15 loops)
Fill your hand with filler. Fold the opposite walls in half and tie the 7th sc.
Leave a long thread to sew hands to the body. Place your hands on the side of the case, 1 row under head.
The ears
Inner ear (two parts)
We start with pink yarn:
1 row: 6 sc in amigurumi ring (6 loops)
2 row: 2 sc in each loop (12 loops)
3 row: (1 sc, increase) * 6 (18 loops)
4 row: (1 sc, increase, 1 sc) * 6 (24 loops)
5 row: (3 sc, increase in every 4th sc) * 6 (30 loops)
6 row: (2 sc, increase, 2 sc) * 6 (36 loops)
7 row: (5 sc, increase in every 6th sc) * 6 (42 loops)
8 row: (3 sc, increase, 3 sc) * 6 (48 loops)
9 row: (7 sc, increase) * 2, 1 HDC, (1 HDC + 1DC) in one loop, 1 DC, increase from DC, 1 DC, (1DC + 1 HDC)
in one loop, 1 HDC, increase from HDC, 1 HDC, (1 HDC + 1 DC) in one loop, 1 DC, increase from DC, 1 DC,
(1DC + 1HDC) in one loop, 1 HDC, increase from sc, (7 sc, increase) * 2 (60 loops)
Cut the thread.
Outer ear (two parts):
In the same way, knit two ears from gray yarn. Do not cut the thread. Fold pink and gray circles.
the wrong side to each other together and knit 2 parts as follows:
Fold the ear in half and knit 5 sc. Sew ears to the head.
Tail
Knit with a gray thread:
1 row: 6 sc in amigurumi ring
2-3 rows: 2 rows of 6 sc (6 loops)
4 row: increase, 5 sc (7 loops)
5-7 rows: 3 yards of 7 sc (7 loops)
8 row: increase, 6 sc (8 loops)
9-11 rows: 3 rows of 8 sc (8 loops)
12 row: increase, 7 sc (9 loops)
Leave a long thread to sew the tail to the body. Tie a knot at the end of the tail of 3 or 4 threads and
comb with a comb.
Skirt
For the skirt, I took 6 pieces of organza (5 – 6 cm) and a long piece of thread. With the help of a needle I collected them
together and secured from behind.
