Aus den tiefen dunklen Tiefen der Ozeane kommt der Liebenswürdige und umarmt manchmal ein wenig zu fest, Octavius und Stubby die Afrikanischen Blumenoktopusse. Dieser Schnitt für meinen Kraken ist mein viertes Schnittmuster. Ich habe mir wirklich große Mühe gegeben, es visuell leicht verständlich zu machen, sowie schriftliche Anweisungen. (Obwohl ich ein großer visueller Fan bin, können meine Fotos mehr aussagen.) Diese Anleitung beinhaltet beide Versionen der Tentakel...also 16 Beine zum Preis von 8! Du kannst also beides machen! Ich wäre Ihnen sehr dankbar, wenn Sie sich an meine(n) Muster halten würden. Es ist wahnsinnig wie viel Zeit, Mühe und Haarraufen in jeder neuen Kreation und jedem neuen Muster steckt. Ich habe mich wirklich sehr bemüht, alle Fehler (Gramtik und Anleitung) so gut wie möglich zu korrigieren. Bitte verkaufe, kopiere, veröffentliche, teile meine Anleitungen nicht mit Freunden, Familie oder dem Affen auf der Straße. Bitte nennen Sie mich als Designer und zögern Sie nicht, Ihre Kreationen mit mir zu teilen! Ich würde gerne sehen, was Sie machen! Bitte beachten Sie: herunterladbare PDF NUR der Musteranweisungen, die Ihren afrikanischen Blumenoktopus herstellen ...keine gedruckte / fertige Einzelteil. Die Anleitung ist nur auf englisch verfügbar :) Einige wichtige Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, wenn Sie Ihren Oktopus herstellen ... 1.Lesen Sie zuerst die gesamte Anleitung durch, um zu verstehen, wie Ihr Oktopus zusammengesetzt wird. 2.Es ist am besten, wenn du weißt, wie man die afrikanischen Blumenmotive macht. Ich habe mich wirklich sehr bemüht, den Prozess ihrer Herstellung zu beschreiben ... aber ich bin neu im Entwerfen von Mustern, also bin ich sicher, dass ich etwas verpasst habe ... hoffentlich nicht. 3.Ich benutze die “Join as you go” -Methode, wie in Heidi Bears Designs beschrieben. Wenn du das nicht weißt oder damit nicht klarkommst, dann schlage ich vor, dass du es zusammen nähst. Benötigtes Material: Der Oktopus, der in dieser Anleitung enthalten ist, wurde mit Sockenwolle gehäkelt. Ich kann Ihnen die genaue Menge an Wolle nicht sagen. Dies ist eine großartige Möglichkeit, das übrige Garn zu verbrauchen. Ich bevorzuge 2.5mm Haken und fingering/sock/sport/manchmal DK Garnstärke zu benutzen. Mit diesem Sockengarn bekommen Sie einen Oktopus der ungefähr 37cm lang, 21cm hoch, 37cm breit ist. Geschrieben in AMERICAN CROCHET TERMS Häkelnadel 2,5mm Ich mag meine Maschen fest. Passe also deine Nadel an das Gewicht deines Garns und an deine Könnensstufen an. Polyester Spielzeugfüllung Schere, abgestumpfte Nadel zum Einnähen der Enden und zum Annähen der Flossen Augen (16mm Plastiksicherheitsaugen oder Drahtaugenknöpfe sind meine bevorzugten). HINWEIS TASTEN ODER AUGEN KÖNNEN FÜR KLEINE KINDER EIN SICHERHEITSGEFAHR SEIN! Wenn dieses Spielzeug für ein Kind ist, vielleicht häkeln und annähen. Erstellen Sie noch Augenhöhlen, bevor Sie die Augen aufsticken. Grundkenntnisse im Häkeln: Luftmaschen, feste Maschen, feste Maschen, Kettmaschen, eine Luftmasche zu einem Ring verbinden, einfädeln. Wenn du einen Fehler oder einen Schritt findest, der nicht sinnvoll ist, schreib mir eine Nachricht und ich werde versuchen, dir so gut wie möglich zu helfen.

VAT, past purchases count towards this promotion -> Elephants Loxodonta & Elephas are here Koop mijn beide olifantpatronen en betaal voor de 2e slechts €1,-! excl. BTW, eerdere aankopen tellen ook mee voor deze actie Note: You’re free to make as many as you want, as long as they’re for yourself or gifts to friends. Do not use my patterns for commercial production! (i.e. to sell on etsy etc errata: The chin square is joined first to 5a, then to 5f. (not 5b) Het kin vierkant maak je eerst aan 5a, dan aan 5f (niet 5b) updated pattern: may 2017 Nederlands onderin Elmer is a colourful elephant made of hexagons and other polygons. The pattern includes photo’s and written instructions on how to make the motifs and how to join them to make the elephant. Meterage & sizes: The size of your elephant depends on the yarn you use. The individual hexagons and other shapes require only a small amount of yarn, making this an ideal project for leftover bits of yarn. As a guide My Elmer is made using 35 grams (140 m) of sport weight yarn. He is 9.5 cm high, 15 cm long, and 8 cm wide. Elmer also has a friend named Tiny Phant. She is made of 37 grams (105 m) of lace weight cotton yarn and she is 7.5 cm high, 12 cm long and 6.5 cm wide. Elmer is een kleurrijke olifant gemaakt van hexagons en andere polygonen. Het patroon bevat zowel foto’s als geschreven instructies voor het maken van de onderdelen en voor het in elkaar zetten van de olifant. Benodigde meters en maten: De maat van je olifant hangt af van het garen dat je gebruikt. De individuele hexagons en andere vormen hebben maar heel weinig garen nodig, waardoor dit een heel geschikt project is om allerlei restjes in te verwerken. Gebruik een haaknaald die 1 maat kleiner is dan aangegeven op het label om te zorgen dat je geen grote gaten krijgt waar de vulling doorheen kan komen. Als gids Mijn Elmer is gemaakt met 35 gram (140 m) ‘sport’ dikte garen. Hij is 9.5 cm hoog, 15 cm lang en 8 cm breed. Elmer heeft ook een vriendinnetje, Tiny Phant. Zij is gemaakt met 37 gram (105 m) kant dikte katoen garen en ze is 7.5 cm hoog, 12 cm lang en 6.5 cm breed.
Jeg har igen forsøgt mig med at hækle en bold.. Sidst jeg gjorde det så det sådan her ud.. Denne gang består bolden af blomsterlignende femkanter og sekskanter - det er vist dem man kalder African flower.. Bolden er hæklet i bomuldsgarn og med hæklenål nr. 3 .. Bolden kan også hækles bare bestående af femkanter - så bliver den bare mindre.. Her er bolden jeg har hæklet.. :) Jeg er helt vild med bolde af den hæklede slags fordi de er bløde og nemme at holde om for børnene der skal lege med dem. Der udover kan de jo hækles i alle størrelser, farver og mønstre så der er mulighed for at lave et hav af varianter .. :) Du kan se opskriften her; Skrevet på mest pædagogiske vis :) Opskriften viser sekskanter, men fremgangsmåden er den samme til femkanterne, du skal bare sørge for, at du i hver omgang laver en gentagelse mindre og kun laver fem blade.. God fornøjelse med opskriften !

This is a listing for a digital download PDF File for the crochet pattern which shows how to make this item, not for the finished item. The pattern is available ONLY in ENGLISH! This pattern has 48 pages. Fatty Lumpkin is the sixth of my patterns that makes use of the African Flower hexagon crochet motif and variations thereof, joined in a specific order to make a recognizable 3D item. I love this African Flower pattern and the creative possibilities of using it to make 3D items . Fatty Lumpkin is made using three different African Flower motifs: Hexagons, Pentagons and Heptagons and a nose motif. It’s also an excellent stash buster project, as you only need to use very small amounts of leftover sock yarn to make a motif. The purchase of this pattern also provides for a second downloadable PDF, which shows you how to turn Fatty into a rocking-horse, a unicorn and a Pegasus. Please note that I have permission from the designers of this African Flower Crochet Hexagon to design patterns using the African Flower Hexagon motif, and to sell these patterns. I know everyone with a yarn habit would like to earn a little extra money to feed the addiction ;) so I am more than happy for folks who have bought any of my patterns to sell finished items…I kindly ask that you please respect the guidelines below… Thank you! You are welcome to sell any finished Fatty Lumpkins, made by yourself. Please respect the pattern itself, including instructions, words, photographs, diagrams and the actual construction of the pony, and do not share, copy, post or distribute in any way, electronic or other that will infringe my right as the author and creator of this pattern. Please do not use the idea and actual pony pattern to modify and/or alter in any way to create or design and sell derivative patterns, including the use of a different hexagonal / polygonal motif to make a pony like Fatty Lumpkin. Thank you for respecting the hard work that has gone into designing this pattern. I hope you will love making your own Fatty Lumpkin. You have permission to make and sell finished Fatty Lumpkins, but with the proviso that you yourself have made the pony and that a credit link is added to any finished items, linking to my Ravelry pattern shop: http://www.ravelry.com/designers/heidi-bears Your finished item tag should state that this African Flower pony is made from a Heidi Bears Design pattern. NO mass production is allowed. :: Steps to making your own Fatty Lumpkin :: First read the whole pattern through properly, so you have a good overview. Make sure you know how to crochet the African Flower hexagon crochet motif. I have included both written and charted instructions for the African Flower hexagon in this pattern. If you are a visual learner, you can see a step by step photo tutorial on my blog: http://heidibearscreative.blogspot.com/2010/05/african-fl... Make sure you are able to crochet an African Flower Pentagon and Heptagon… for clarity: the pentagon has five petals and five sides and the heptagon has seven petals and seven sides. The difference is simply the number of “petal” repeats that you crochet…pentagons and heptagons are therefore equally easy to crochet. I have included written and charted instructions in this pattern on how to crochet an African Flower Pentagon. I have also posted a fully explained tutorial, on my blog, which can be found here: http://heidibearscreative.blogspot.com/2011/09/african-fl... Make sure you have gone through and practiced the join-as-you-go technique. This has been explained and illustrated in the PDF named Appendix : Joining Tutorials. Since the joining method is really very important to the success of the project, I strongly suggest that you practice joining on scrap yarn motifs before starting the project. If you would prefer to sew your motifs together, you won’t need to practice the join-as-you-go technique, but will need to be confident in your neat sewing ability. I have not included instructions on how to sew stuff together…there are plenty resources available on the internet… Either choose your yarn for this project or use the sock yarn that you have left over from other projects. Make all the required motifs for your pony BUT only up to Round 4 of the African Flower motif if you are doing a join-as-you-go method, or the full motif up to Round 5 if you are sewing up the motifs. Decide if you are going to make the REGULAR African Flower Motif or the Modified Motif. The charts and instructions given are for the Regular motif, however, if you would like to make the Modified motif, there is a fully explained tutorial at the end of the pattern which shows you step by step how to make the modified motifs. The joining process remains the same. : : Materials Requirements : : The pony that has been crocheted for this pattern, was made using sock weight/fingering/#1 weight yarn. Using this weight yarn will give you a pony measuring approximately 27 cm measured from the top of the ears to the feet, and approximately 28 cm nose to tail. ALL THE CROCHET STITCHES USED IN THIS PATTERN ARE BASED ON AMERICAN CROCHET TERMS Abbreviations : sc = single crochet , dc = double crochet, tr=treble crochet hdc=half double crochet Sock weight / Fingering weight yarn/ #1 in colors of your choice… this little pony is a great stash busting project as you can use small amounts of sock yarn for each motif, and the more colourful the prettier I used random colors, keeping only to the cream colored yarn for Round 5 of each motif. Although I can’t tell you how much yardage of each color I used, I can tell you that the total weight of yarn for the pony was around 160g (unstuffed). You’ll need to make sure you have enough extra yarn for the tail and mane, depending on how full you want these to be… The yardage for the sock yarn I used is around 320m/100g (350yds/100g). It is a superwash merino yarn, but you can use any alternative fingering weight yarn you like…I suggest that animal fibre yarns would be preferable, as they have more stretch, making the stuffing and shaping of the pony easier. Crochet Hook 1.75mm If you are planning to make your pony in a heavier weight yarn, adjust your hook size accordingly…however, use the smallest hook size possible for the weight of yarn that you can manage. Since the pony is stuffed, your stitch density will need to be tighter than usual to prevent the stuffing from popping out. Make a test motif in your chosen yarn and hook to see which would be the best size to use. Polyester toy stuffing Haemostats (for stuffing) Scissors Tapestry Needle used for sewing in ends Sewing Pins Eyes (plastic safety eyes or glass looped eyes). PLEASE NOTE THAT ATTACHED EYES ARE NOT RECOMMENDED FOR TOYS CREATED FOR CHILDREN! They can be a suffocation hazard. If you are making this pony for a child, rather embroider the eyes using embroidery thread! I would still suggest sculpting the eye sockets before embroidering the eyes…it adds a lovely realistic element I have used 14mm wire looped glass eyes. These can easily be sourced from sellers on eBay and Etsy. : : Skills Requirements : : Basic Crocheting Skills: Chain stitch (ch) , Single Crochet (sc), Double Crochet (dc), Treble crochet (tr), Half Double Crochet (hdc), Slip Stitch (sl st), joining a chain to make a ring, joining in a new color yarn. Join-as-you-go motif joining: This pattern will require that you join the crocheted motifs each stitch to each stitch. This is necessary to prevent the stuffing popping out of the pony. It is imperative that you are confident in your join-as-you-go ability. The method I use is explained in the Appendix pages found at the end of the pattern. These tutorials are illustrated by using actual motif chart illustrations with explanatory notes. This cuts down on printing However, if you are scared witless by the thought of doing a join-as-you-go joining method, all is not lost…you can simply make all your motifs in full (including Round 5), then sew them together. The order of motif placement and the number of sides needing to be joined stays exactly the same whether you join-as-you-go or sew up. I have tried really hard to make this pattern achievable for all…I have explained each step photographically and with explanations, so that even beginners can follow along. I have also carefully checked and re-checked the pattern for errors…please send me a pm if you find something…I would be very grateful! Happy Crocheting folks!
