The night bird is an owl. For many, it is associated with knowledge and wisdom. She always pleases children with her unusually large eyes. Therefore, you can always crochet an Owl toy. Moreover, technologies can be very different - from the simplest model, when the whole owl consists of one part, to very complex.
Simple owl
To make it, you will need cotton yarn and a suitable size hook. In order for the Owl toy (crochet) to acquire volume, any filler, such as cotton wool, is useful. For beautiful eyes, black beads or small buttons will be needed. Although you can use the floss thread and embroider the pupils.
In the process of knitting, there will be no transition to a new row, because amigurumi is knitted in a spiral. In order not to get lost in the loops, experienced craftswomen recommend using a marker to start the row. It can be a special ring or a piece of yarn in a contrasting color.
Owl main detail
In the amigurumi ring, knit 6 single crochet (then they will be called “columns”).
In the first four circles add 6 columns. Do it as evenly as possible.
The next seven rows fit without changing the number of columns. In order for the toy to turn out with mood, here you can alternate different shades of yarn. Striped clothes come out. This will end the torso.
At the beginning of the next row, reduce one column. From here begins the head of an owl.
Link 6 circles without changing the number of loops. Add filler to the toy.
In the last row, the hole at the top of the toy closes and ears are formed. To do this, connect two halves together and tie 6 columns through them. Then make one column, crocheting through the loops of the previous row, and again 6 columns.
Item: Eye
In a movable amigurumi loop, connect 11 columns with a crochet, making three lifting loops. Fasten the thread and leave it so that you can sew the eye to the toy.
Item: Beak
On a chain of three air loops, knit 2 SC. In the second row make them with a common peak. The last row consists of a connecting column. This is the whole scheme (crochet). The owl is almost ready.
It remains to connect all the parts together. If you wish, you can tie a small loop and sew it to the head. Now you can hang an owl.
Complex Owl: Torso
Tie a ring of 4 air loops. In the front row make 6 single crochet. In the second, at each top of the column, execute two of them. Then continue to increase the number of columns by six so that you get 6 identical wedges. There should be nine such rows with an increase.
The next eight rows do not need to be increased. Then just as evenly need to reduce 6 loops in one row. Three circles of knitting continues with a direct web.
Next row: reduce another 6 loops. Then 6 more circles without reducing the number of columns. Again, two rows of uniform decreases. Two circles: straight canvas. Fill the Owl toy (crocheted) with filler. 4 more rows: reduction of 6 loops. Fasten the thread and sew up the hole.
Complex owl: beak and eyes
Again, make a chain of 4 loops and lock it into a ring. In the front row of the beak of the Owl toy, crochet 4 single crochet posts. Then, three rows should increase in two loops in each. Fasten the thread and fill the part with filler.
By analogy with the beak, you need to make two paws. Only increase by doing three loops, and then also reduce the number of columns. It is not necessary to stuff them very tightly so that you can bend the paws and put a toy on them. In the same way it is supposed to make a ponytail. He will be the third fulcrum.
Eyes of an owl: circles. They fit like this:
- ring of 4 loops;
- 6 single crochet;
- make an increase of 6 loops in the next 4 rows.
In the center of such a circle, you need to sew a black bead or button to make the eye look like a real one. For greater realism, you can make another circle, but with a smaller diameter, from white threads. It will need to be placed between the button and the large circle.
Complicated Owl: Wings and Ears
Crochet an owl will continue the wing. It repeats the circle for the eye. Only increments need to be done by 4. And increase the number of circles by two. So it becomes convex. It will seem that he has the volume necessary for the wing. It will be necessary to sew it to the body along the entire length. Under it, it is also desirable to add filler.
Ear for toy "Owl" (crochet) - description of knitting:
- on a ring of 4 loops, perform 6 SC;
- make an increase of two columns in three rows in a row.
It remains to fix the thread and sew flat ears to the owl's head.
Assembly recommendations: to position the beak between the 15th and 19th rows of the body; to fix eyes on the sides of it; Sew the ears to the crown.
Owl on an egg from kinder surprise
Crocheting an owl is simple, but it is very simple to please a baby with a novelty. First you need to make two halves per container of kinder surprise.
To do this, on a sliding loop, amigurumi knit 10 yarn with a thin yarn. In the first row, make an increase of 5 loops. Do the same in the second and third circles.
Further, the scheme (a crochet owl is knitted, we repeat, is not difficult) is somewhat modified. It is necessary to make an increase of 7 columns. Then the knitting goes with a straight cloth until the part reaches the junction of the two halves of the container.
Similarly, tie the head for the toy "Owl" (crochet). A description of the remaining parts is not required because detailed diagrams are provided for them. Sew all parts in the right places. You can sew a loop and hang a toy on a Christmas tree or make a cute keychain.
