MATERIALS AND TOOLS
These materials are necessary:
- hairy yarn. I used Kamteks Khlopok Travka (65% cotton, 35% polyamide, 220 m/100 g) - white (205). Main color (beige for the jerboa or yellow for the Pikachu) - 1 skein. Leftovers of white and black yarn to make the switch on the tail and the muzzle. Leftovers of red, brown and black yarn for Pikachu. You can use Nako Paris yarn (40% acrylic, 60% polyamide; 245 m/100 g) or any other similar yarn or any mohair yarn (If you use mohair yarn, you will have to trim your toy after brushing it).
If you need exactly the same yarn, please ask via private message in this Etsy shop LittleOwlsHutRUSSIAN

-
any smooth yarn of cream color to make feet. I used Alize Diva (100% microfiber, 350 m/100 g) - 15 g. You can use any yarn you like - it’s important to keep the proportions - and item made with hairy yarn should be 15% bigger than the item made with smooth yarn.
-
Copper wire to insert into front legs (the wire is necessary to make the toy stable) - 1.5 mm cooper wire - approx. 2.5 m. You can buy this wire in a craft shop, but I suggest buying it in an electronic goods store. There you can buy a 31.5 cord. Before buying the cord, make sure that the wire inside it is whole and does not consist of several thin wires. With a paper knife, remove the insulation.
-
Stuffing polyester.
-
White fabric plaster or insulation tape.
-
Toy eyes / half beads (plastic or glass) of black color (I recommend using black eyes to make the toy look more natural.) The size of the eyes is 12 mm (depends on the size of your toy).
-
transparent glue (if you want to glue the eyes on instead of sewing them on). Make sure the glue doesn’t destroy the plastic.
-
Strong thread to do sculpting. I use Vita Pelican yarn - I like this yarn because it is strong enough, doesn’t damage the fabric. Some crocheters like using dental floss or thick nylon thread.
-
To make the front legs movable you will need two cotter pin joints 2.020 mm (or 2.025 mm), four M3 washers, four 15-mm plywood or cardboard discs (choose the discs according to the hole in the shoulder). However, you can just sew the arms on, then you won’t need these joints and discs.
-
plastic clue of pink color (for the jerboa) or black color (for Pikachu) to make the nose or you can use a toy nose or you can felt it.
-
0.6-1 mm permanent marker or a ballpoint pen of black color to tint the eyes.
-
fishing line to make whiskers.
-
dry pastel paints of the following colors (to make a beige jerboa): Dark-brown, brown, pink (to tint inside the ears), orange-red (not necessary). ) hard synthetic brushes No 5 (or No 4) and No 9 (or No 8, or No 10)
Optional materials:
- 1 m of 0.3-0.5 mm beadwork wire or 1.00 mm copper wire to reinforce ears
- To make poncho and sombrero you can use any smooth cotton yarn. I used Vita Coco (100% mercerized cotton, 240 m/50 g) of red, yellow and green colors. You will need just leftovers of these yarns.
- 0.8 mm button for the poncho.
- for pokéball you will need a foam plastic ball 50-60 mm in diameter. Any smooth sport yarn of white, red and black colors. I used Alize Diva yarn (100% microfiber, 350 m/100 g) - 10 g of each color.
TOOLS:
- 1.75 mm crochet hook to make the toy. Attention: choose the size of the hook according to the yarn you use or your manner to crochet.
- 1.25 mm crochet hook to make poncho and sombrero. Attention: choose the size of the hook according to the yarn you use or your manner to crochet.
- Wire cutter.
- Scissors
- Round pliers to twist cotter-pins.
- Hard synthetic paint brush to tint the toy.
