Micro Squirrel
★ SKILL LEVEL: INTERMEDIATE (if you use thick yarn) and ADVANCED (if you use thin yarn)
★ MATERIALS AND TOOLS :
- Yarn: I use thin «Slonim» yarn, ginger color (Belarus, cotton+acrylic, 100g ~ 1500m). A floss of 1-2 threads is also suitable; you need a thin thread, as thin as possible. Also we need Kid Mohair, for example: Alize, YarnArt, Gazzal… (mohair/polyamide, 50g ~ 500m), white color NOTE: this pattern can also be used for crocheting toys from thicker yarn, so if it is difficult for you to crochet using thin yarn, try to crochet using thicker yarn first.
To decorate the toy you need thin yarn (I use Slonim yarn again): black (embroider a nose), white (embroider a semicircle beside the eyes), dark brown (make tassels on the ears).
- Hook №0.7 (0.7mm; it is extremely difficult to crochet from thin yarn, try different hook numbers, perhaps it will be more convenient for you to crochet using thinner or thicker hook: №0.6-0.9)
- Fiberfill (to stuff)
- Glue eyes (2mm)
- Thin wire (0.4мм): for the arms 2pcs and for the legs 2pcs, each ~ 2.5cm long; for the tail ~7cm
- A piece of Velcro to brush the toy, and a felting needle (for example, star felting needle №38) to correct and lay the fur
- Needle, safety pins, scissors, glue (Moment Crystal), thin stick (for the convenience of stuffing small parts).
★ SKILLS REQUIRED:
You must have basic crochet skills (with crocheting micro toys) - this pattern is not so easy so please ask me if you will have some questions/difficulties.
+ I add video lesson “Thread mount (jointing of moving parts)” here - https://youtu.be/htMjNFbk0cY
This pattern is ADVANCED LEVEL but easy to follow with step-by-step instructions (12 pages with detailed instructions and ~80 photos illustrating the process)
