Collecting the penguin:
Sew the head to the body
Sew the hood to the head like this:
Sew on the wings:
Sew on the paws
Sew on the beak:
We embroider the eyes at the level as shown in the photo, the height of the eye is 1 Sc. We blush the cheeks with dry pink eye shadow.
We knit a skirt:
We knit 14 rows using the front loops.
Attach the thread:
1)(3 Ch,1DC in one stitch),2DC in each stitch to end of row.
2) 1 dc in each loop of the end of the row. Cut the thread.
Making the straps:
We thread the yarn into the needle and make a knot:
We stick it in the back under the skirt, take the needle and thread out and throw it over
over the penguin’s shoulder:
And we stick a needle in the front under the bottom of the skirt, make a knot, and hide it.
We make the second strap in the same way
Cap:
Cast on 45p needles
We knit 4 rows with an elastic band 1*1(1Knit,1Purl.)
We knit 24 rows in stockinette stitch:
This is the first decrease.
Let’s start making adjustments:
We will need to make 3 decreases at the beginning of the row.
We knit the edge loop and the loop that follows it together.
Now we put the loop formed as a result of the decrease back on the left knitting needle and knit it together with the next knit stitch.
This is the second decrease.
Now again we put the loop formed as a result of the decrease back on the left knitting needle, followed by a knit stitch.
This is the third decrease.
Now we knit with facial loops to the end of the row without decreasing.
Next, at the beginning of each row, we make 3 decreases according to the above description, until 3-4 loops remain on the knitting needles.
In the purl rows we also knit decreases with knit stitches.
Now we sew the cap along the uneven edge.
Then leave the thread for sewing.
We put the remaining loops on the hook, pull the thread through them and tighten.
We knit strings for a hat:
We knit the number of columns arbitrarily.
We cast on 12 Ch, then we knit single crochets along the bottom edge of the cap, as shown in the photo:
When you have knitted the edge of the cap to the end, cast on 12Ch again and cut off the thread.
The ties are ready.
Our penguin is ready!
