horse, crocheted from motives

The most magical holiday - New Year. And many craftswomen are already thinking about what gifts to give to their loved ones. We offer you crochet so wonderful horse. Horse fits from individual motives.

In total it will be necessary to connect 42 motifs:

triangle - 1 piece,

quadrangle - 3 pieces,

pentagon - 19 pieces,

hexagon - 15 pieces + 2 pieces for ears,

heptagon - 2 pieces.

For knitting horses we will need the following materials:

• Multi-colored bright yarn. In the master class, the horse was knitted from Iris yarn.
• Yarn for mane and tail.
• Hook No. 1.5 (or another corresponding to the yarn you have chosen).
• Filler for a toy (For example, padding polyester or sliver).
• Scissors.
• Needle for stitching parts.
• Sheet of cardboard.

Let's start knitting a hexagonal motif. We will knit according to diagram:

The motive from which we will knit a horse, called "African flower". It is very often used for knitting blankets, shawls and even bags. They also knit funny toys from it!

So, let's start knitting.

We are recruiting 5 air loops and close them in a ring. Let's start knitting first row: two air loops for lifting, double crochet, air loop. Next we repeat *two double crochets, chain stitch* - 5 times.

Take yarn of a different color.

Second row: We knit two lifting chain stitches again, then into the hole formed by the chain stitch of the previous row, we knit a double crochet, a chain stitch, and two double crochets. Repeat *two double crochets, chain stitch, two double crochets* into the hole formed by the chain stitch of the previous row - 5 times.

To knit the next row, you can change the color of the yarn again, or you can continue knitting the same.

Third row: Using half-stitches, make your way to the hole that was formed by the air loop of the previous row (between two double crochets). We knit two chain stitches for lifting and 6 double crochets. Repeat *7 double crochets* - 5 times.

Change the color of the yarn. It is better if it is yarn in a contrasting color.

Fourth row:*7 single crochet, double crochet* - repeat 6 times.

Change the color of the yarn again and tie the flower with double crochets.

The last row is single crochet with white yarn:

The remaining motifs are knitted similarly. Here's more knitting pattern pentagonal motif:

So, we should have 42 motifs.

Now let's get started assembly. There are several ways to assemble things connected from individual motifs. You can find out more about these methods here:

• Connecting motifs with crochet

In this master class, the parts are sewn together, but you can choose the method of joining the parts that you prefer.

Let's start assembling the horse from the muzzle. Take the following parts: 1 triangular motif and 3 pentagonal ones.

We sew them together as shown in the photo:

Now we take 3 more pentagons.

We sew them to the muzzle.

Let's take another pentagonal motif:

Sew it to the back of the head.

We sew two hexagons - on one side and on the other. This will be the horse's neck.

We continue to connect the parts. The diagram shows how to do this. In those places where the number “4” is located we place quadrangles.

Now we will assemble the legs separately, and then attach them to the body of the horse.

For each leg we will need the following motifs:

We sew the motifs together. The leg is ready.

Thus, at this stage we have three parts left unsewn: a heptagonal motif (sewn last on the tummy) and two hexagonal motifs for the ears.

We sew the legs to the body, do not sew the heptagon onto the tummy yet, through this hole we will stuff the toy.

Stuffing the toy:

Sew the heptagonal motif onto the tummy, thereby closing the hole.

This is the kind of horse we got. True, so far without a mane, tail and ears.

Back view:

Let's start creating the mane. For this we need fluffier and softer yarn. And in order to make the mane even, we will use one clever device. In principle, if you trust your eye, you can simply attach the threads.

In order for the hairs of the mane to be the same length, we will make a blank from cardboard. Outline the horse's neck.

Draw the mane on the cardboard.

Cut out the part and try it on.

We begin to wrap the cardboard with thread. You can use a needle for this (if the yarn you choose is not too thick and will fit into the eye of the needle) or pull the threads out with a hook.

We wrap yarn around the entire cardboard mane.

Cut the top and release the “hair”:

You can trim your bangs a little :)

From the same yarn we make a tail for a horse:

Let's start attaching the ears. The eyelet is a hexagonal motif folded in half and tied with single crochets.

Fold the eyelet in half and secure it with a needle. There is no need to cut the thread, since next we will sew the ears to the horse’s head.

I came across a wonderful service with which it is convenient to quickly and economically book and book airline tickets, hotels, car rentals in Russia and around the world! You can book a plane ticket and hotel online by following this link, but don’t forget to first consider all the discounts offered! I wish everyone good luck!
