Do you need a funny toy? And such that no one else has the same? Then you need to do it yourself. Amigurumi "Owl" is a clear example of this. It can be small, so as to hang it from the bag, or large, with which the baby will be comfortable sleeping.
Option 1: Keychain
In this case, the Amigurumi “Owl” consists entirely of one ball. He immediately is the head and body of the toy. To do it, you need to perform 6 single crochet in the amigurumi ring (then just columns). The next 4 circles will need to be knit so that in each of them 6 loops are added. Then comes one circle without adding.
Then the decrease begins. In the first circle at once 6 loops. Then three rows without changes. Two more circles with a uniform decrease in the number of loops by six. There should be 12 in the last row.
Now you need to fill the Owl amigurumi so that it becomes voluminous. Fold the top circle and knit it with connecting posts. Sew on the edges of this row of ears-tassels. From circles of felt to make circles for the eyes and stick them to the head. Sew black beads in the middle. Embroider the beak with several stitches.
Option 2: as the first, only more
Such an amigurumi “Owl” is knitted similarly to the previous one. On a sliding loop you need to make 6 columns. Then increase their number so that it turns out:
- in the 2nd - 14 loops;
- in the 3rd - 22;
- in the 4th - 28 loops;
- in the 5th - 32;
- 6-12 circles fit without adding.
From this moment begins a gradual decrease in the columns:
- in the 13-16th row, make a uniform decrease in two loops;
- in the 17th should remain 21;
- Knit the 18th row without decreasing and fasten the thread.
Now you need to connect two circles for the eyes and sew them to the body. Embroider beak and owl pupils. Fill the body with stuffing and gently sew on top. It is recommended to make brushes on the ears.
Now you need to tie the two wings. For the first, you need to tie 6 columns in the amigurumi loop. On it do:
- from the first loop - a column and a half-column;
- from the second - a half-column and a column;
- from the third, a single crochet and two double crochets.
The second wing is knitted in the same way, only the knitting sequence on the circle goes from the end. It remains only to collect an owl from a small number of elements.
Option 3: like a ball
There is nothing complicated in how to weave an amigurumi owl . It is enough to remember the technique already described above and make the torso-head in a shape resembling an egg. The beginning is again in creating a sliding loop, on which 6 columns are tied.
In the first row, add 8 columns evenly. Then knit 4 circles, each supposed to increase the number of loops by 6. You should get 38 columns. Next is the main body, which consists of rows with the same number of loops. It consists of 13 circles.
Then begins a gradual decrease. First row with 32 columns. In the next round, reduce another 6 loops. At this point, it is necessary to densely fill the product with filler. Then comes another row, in which again reduce 6 loops. The next row is reduced by another 5 columns. The last decrease consists of eight columns in one row. The last circle should be formed by 7 columns. Again tightly fill the body and close the hole with seven columns connected to one vertex.
What happened now is just the foundation that can be turned into any toy. To get an owl amigurumi, the work scheme goes according to such a plan.
1. The ears. On a ring of three loops, connect a circle of 3 columns. In the second round, their number should be equal to 6 already.
2. Wings. On the amigurumi ring, tie 6 columns. In the second round, make them 12, and in the third - 18.
3. Eyes. They can be knitted like wings, or cut from felt.
4. Pupils may be buttons or beads. Or you can just embroider them.
5. The beak. A simple triangle or ear-like.
6. The pattern on the chest in the form of triangles
Option 4: two-part, head
The head is the first detail that the Owl amigurumi (crochet) will consist of. Its scheme is similar to what was indicated earlier. Therefore, the description will consist of the row number and the number of columns. The first (in the amigurumi ring) - 6 columns. The second is 12. The third and fourth are 18. The fifth of 24. The sixth is 30. The seventh and eighth are 36 columns. From the ninth to fourteenth, you need to knit 42 columns. In the fifteenth - 36. The sixteenth - 30. The seventeenth - 24 columns. Eighteenth - 18. Here you need to fix the thread.
Option 4: two-part, torso
The body is the second part from which the owl-amigurumi (crochet) will turn out . Until the ninth row, work is the same as with head knitting. Tenth to twelfth rows - 36 columns. Thirteenth to fourteenth - 30. Fifteenth to sixteenth - 24. The last row consists of 18 columns, the same as the head. Break and fasten the thread.
In order to make the toy more attractive, it is recommended to change the color of the thread in each row. Then the body of the owl will immediately become as if in clothes.
Both parts will need to be filled and stitched. It remains to supplement the toy with details.
Option 4: two-part, ear, wing and eye
For the ears, knit 4 columns into a sliding loop. The second row will repeat the same number. The third circle is supposed to be knitted from 6 columns.
Eyes are best made round. And immediately from two colors. The center is made of white thread, and the edge is light gray. In the amigurumi loop, knit 6 columns in white. The second and third rows will be obtained from 12 and 18 columns, respectively. Here you need to replace the yarn and knit further one more circle. It should turn out of 24 loops.
Wing. His pattern repeats the first three rows that are described for the eye. The fourth row is 18. Then the decrease begins. The fifth row - 12. The sixth - 9. The seventh - 6. fasten the thread and fill the wing. Now you can sew all the details into place.
