knit according to the pattern: 1sc, 1inc, 2sc, 1inc, 1sc, 1inc. Further for both half loop of the 14th row

Pull the hole. Fasten the thread, break it.
Stage 6. Design.
First you need to comb the cat well and all the details.
Now make the ducks. We introduce a needle with a strong thread under the jaw, including
the place where we had a “bulge”. We display about 1 marker. Enter in pair
loops from the exit point of the thread and display about 2 markers. Retreating a couple
loops and return the needle to point 1. Having retreated a couple of loops, we return under
jaw. Tighten the thread so that the nose forms, tighten the knot, thread
cut off.
Repeat the same procedure for the second eye. Insert the needle under the jaw
output at point 2. Enter a pair of loops from the exit point of the thread and output to
point 1. Return the needle to point 2 and then under the jaw. Fasten the thread,
hide the tips.
Sew the lower jaw and ears.
Fasten the eyes and roll the white of the eyes. You can use white felt
instead of felting.
Now we’ll emphasize the muzzle line a bit, go through the felting needle
lines from the corner of the mouth. I also walked a little along the line from nose to mouth and
toned this line with a black marker. But you can simply flash this line
black thread.
Sew the eyelids so as to cover the eye almost halfway.
Sculpt the nose (or use the finished one), fasten.
Now toning. We collect some paint on the brush, the brush should remain
semi-dry. We tint the tips of the ears, breast, strip from the nose bridge upwards
forehead. Slightly tinted line from the eye to the line of the mouth. Black pastel
toned around the nose.
We fix the mustache.
To do this, cut pieces of fishing line 3 times longer than the planned length of the mustache.
Fold in half and tie a knot. We take a needle and thread with a strong thread.
The color is as close as possible to the main color. Thread in one addition. We introduce
a needle in a mouth and we deduce on the right on a muzzle.
Now we enter the needle with the BACK, blunt side through one loop from the point
exit the thread and display on the left on the face in the place where we plan the antennae.
The needle is not pulled out, leave in the muzzle.
And pull the thread from the needle. We pass the thread through the knot on the fishing line and insert
thread back into the needle. We pull out the needle on the right side of the muzzle, holding out
fishing line inside the muzzle.
In the same way we stretch the second antennae. Having finished with him, we take the needle into his mouth,
we tie the thread and hide the ends.
Repeat for the right side of the face.
For vibrissa we introduce a needle the BACK of the mouth from the mouth to the point where we plan
vibrissa. Do not pull the needle to the end. Pull the thread from the needle, thread
through the loop on the fishing line, we thread the thread back into the needle. Pull the needle out
mouth. Tie the ends of the thread with a knot, hide. Repeat from the second side.
String bag.
We knit a chain of 7ch.
We estimate the size of the string bag and take the thread 5 times longer. I have a string bag (myself
mesh) 7cm. So I need a 35cm long thread. Cut off 8 pieces
35cm long.
Fold the thread in half, pull through the outer loop of our pigtail,
we fix. Repeat 4 fasteners on each side of the pigtail – through one
a loop.
The result is such a design. 8 bundles of 2 threads each.
Now we need to pick up 2 templates, according to which we will measure the size of the cell
string bags. The main size is bigger, I have a thick Row brand. Second template in 2-
3 times smaller in diameter – I have a pen from the brush.
Now play the spider and weave the net. We take 2 threads from neighboring bunches,
set a smaller template and tie it to 2 knots. Repeat with
following bundles. The first row has turned out.
We no longer need this template, then we work with a large one.
The second row is tied around a large template, taking threads from neighboring bundles.
We no longer need this template, then we work with a large one.
The second row is tied around a large template, taking threads from neighboring bundles.
Repeat to the desired height. The last row is done without templates, “on
eye”. We knit so that we get a triangle, without tightening it at all
to end.
So we narrow the edge of the string bag a little.
Next, you need to tie the edge with crochets. I got 3sc by
each side of the “triangle”. Those. it turned out 24sc (8 triangles in
3sc).
Now a little math. Divide the resulting number of columns by 2 (2
side of the bag). I got 12sc on each side. Now need
divide each side into 3 parts – the middle part – the place of knotting.
I got 4sc from each side to the handle, 4sc of the handle, 4sc after
pens.
Fold the string bag in half, knit the incomplete row to the bend point, then knit
according to 4sc, 20ch, skip 4 loops and then knit 4sc. That’s how we
make one side of the string bag. We continue the second side. 4sc, 20ch,
skip 4 loops, then 4sc.
Fill string bag to taste))
