GIR scarf
Abbreviations:
SL= Slip Stitch
SC= Single Crochet
DC= Double Crochet
Difficulty Level is EASY
For this pattern you will need basic knowledge in Crocheting. In this pattern you will be working in rounds. Creating a Ring with DC (double crochet) stitches. For more information, I found websites like crochetpatterncentral.com and youtube a big help.
Supplies:
Skeins of worst weight yarn in Green, White, and Black . I used Caron’s Simply Soft in Limelight, White, and Black….its sooo soft and I love the muted sheen. You will also need a small scrap of red for the tongue.
Hook size I/9 and G/6
stitch markers
This scarf was inspired by Gir from the Nickelodeon TV series “Invader Zim”. He is a SIR robot that disguises himself as a Green Dog to fool the humans.
Create Basic Scarf
Use I/9 hook and green yarn
- Chain 20
- SC 19 stitches into the chain, Ch 1 then turn
- Repeat step 2 until the scarf is as long as you need. A good rule of thumb is make the scarf as long as the person it is intended for.
- Once it is at the length you desire. Finish off.
- (optional) you can add a single row of 19 SC stitches to each end of the scarf with black yarn .
- Add a nice decorative black stitch (basic sewing stitch) down the center of the Scarf using a yarn needle and some black yarn. See picture below. To know where I was stitching, I marked every so often where I needed to go with plastic stitch markers. You can use a fabric washable marker or safety pins but use something to help mark your path for stitching.
I used small plastic stitch markers to keep my stitches straight
Ears: (make 2)
Use black Yarn and a size I/9 hook
Chain 6
SC across (5 stitches ). Finish off
Eyes: (make 2)
Use G/6 Hook and white yarn
- Chain 3, SL to join
- DC 10 in the ring, SL to join
- 2 DC in each stitch. Around. SL to Join (20 stitches)
- Take some black string and knot the end twice like in the picture. Pull the loose ends through the center of the white eye and secure.
Red Tongue:
Use some scrap red yarn and a size G/6 hook
Chain 4
SC across (4 stitches), finish Off
Assemble Time!
Get out your yarn needle!!
Stitch on the eyes as shown.
The tongue I placed a little lop sided from the center to give him a more comical look, just like in most of his pictures.
Don’t forget to give it a cute black nose! Just embroider in a Triangular stitch between and slightly below the eyes.
