Pig and Boar - symbols of the new 2019 year
In 2019, a yellow earth pig will become a symbol. It is believed that this animal brings good luck, improves the material condition, however, if the pig is angry, you should not rely on the benefits presented to it. To appease the animal, you can crochet a small pig.
Crochet a pig can have different decorative purposes:
- it can be hung on a Christmas tree in the form of a toy;
- can be presented to friends and acquaintances as symbols of the new year;
- a knitted pig can become a child’s favorite toy;
- crafts can decorate oven mitts, a baby hat or a backpack;
- a crocheted flat pig can be used as an application for a greeting card;
- you can use the product as a keychain.
What you need to prepare for knitting
To make the pig crochet beautiful and neat, you need to prepare acrylic or silk threads. If it is not possible to use just this type of basic material, you can buy wool mixture yarn. The main thing is that the knitted pig was dense and kept in shape.
Additionally, you need to prepare:
- white threads for the body of the pig;
- white threads for knitting hooves;
- if the pig will have an outfit, you need to purchase and colored threads;
- small beads made of plastic and buttons;
- hook size 1.8 and 1.2;
- needle;
- thread;
- filler.
How to stuff a knitted pig?
It does not really matter what will be inside the holiday souvenir, the main thing is that it keeps its shape. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that when filling there are no lumps, or the filler is distributed unevenly.
It is not recommended to use natural materials such as down and wool as a filler. Firstly, the piglet will deteriorate after washing, the filler will be knocked down and you will have to get it. Secondly, natural material can cause allergies.
Some needlewomen fill the toys with grass and cereals, hay dust. These toys are great for falling asleep; children like to play with them. If nothing suitable is at hand, you can fill the knitted pig with cotton wool.
But it is best to use special fillers - holofiber or synthetic winterizer. They are sold per meter in fabric stores. If you do not need such a large quantity, you can buy a special filler for toys in stores for handmade art. It is sold in small bags.
Wash the craft carefully only in warm water. Normal detergent for washing will not work, you can use shampoo, liquid soap, a special detergent designed for washing things from wool. Rinse the toy thoroughly, squeeze it slightly, dry it a little in the fresh air, and then put it on a warm battery.
Below you can find detailed patterns for knitting pigs. We have collected some of the most relevant and detailed schemes that even a beginner can figure out. In addition, several original ideas for designing pigs from various needlewomen are presented here.

Crochet Pig
A gift can be not only in the form of a toy, but also become a useful thing in the household. So, the author of this master class proposes to knit a kitchen pot holder in the form of a pink pig’s face. Bright pink ears and heels make the potholder bright and beautiful. Now going to the kitchen will cheer you up when you look at this cute thing.
And you can create this tack even from the remains of the threads - after all, there is not much to do here. This is a great option if there is just a little thread left, and you want to associate some memorabilia with the symbol of 2019.

@nataliana_amigurumi_toys As you can see, crocheting a pig - the symbol of 2019 - is not at all difficult and you can find a huge number of workshops of varying degrees of complexity on the net. Share your work!
First you need to decide on the image of the future product and knitting technique. If you want to crochet a piglet, then amigurumi pig is the easiest to do, as this knitting technique is available even for beginners.
However, in addition to the cartoon character Peppa, you can associate any other piglets: Olivia, Piglet, Funtika, Nif-Nifa with Nuf-Nuf and Naf-Naf or independently invent heroes, endow them with character and give names. Based on this, you can additionally tie clothes to your pigs, as well as suitable jewelry or accessories.
If you knit a Peppa pig or other piglet for small children, then it is better to choose a yarn that is safe and pleasant to the touch for a child, for example, cotton. To make the craft soft, you will need to fill it with a padding polyester or other filler. A three-dimensional figure will be able to stand or sit on its own, and if you decide to tie a flat toy, then it is better to use a wire frame, but it will still stand only with a support.
You can make handles and legs of a toy on a thread mount - so they can move, which will be much more interesting for children. As a peephole, you can use beads or special plastic peepholes for toys, for a very small child it is better to embroider them with threads.
Each product - regardless of whether it is crocheted or knitting, will turn out beautiful, original and unique.
Such a funny little piglet can be crocheted from any ball of yarn.
Choice of yarn and hook size
The composition of the yarn does not matter, but worsted spinning yarn is preferable. A well-twisted thread of equal cross-section will make the product more beautiful. The product from Yarn Art yarn (55% cotton, 45% acrylic) 160m / 50 gr looks good.
The choice of hook depends on the thickness of the chosen yarn. Knitting should be tight enough, the stuffing material should not shine through, much less sleep out of the toy.
The size of the toy will depend on the chosen yarn and hook. According to the size of the toy, we select the appropriate eyes for the design of the muzzle. If you crochet the number 3.5, the optimal diameter of the button-eye is 10 mm.

The piglet is connected without seams, in a spiral. When knitting, it is better to use a beginning row marker. It can be a pin, or a thread of contrasting color. In order to avoid distortions of the finished toy, the displacement loop should not be ignored, it must always be knitted and the marker moved behind it.

Peppa pig crochet
The more you take the hook, and the thicker the thread, the larger the size of your knitted crafts.
Now let's try to make a cool Peppa pig.
- Starting with the same amigurumi ring, we knit the muzzle with pink threads. On the eighth row, cut a circle out of plastic for the patch (take the outlined circle in size for the base), and on the thirty-sixth row, insert it into the patch, before filling the muzzle.
- Ears, as a part, are knitted separately. Do not forget to leave the thread, so that later it is possible to sew them. The same goes for the tail.
- For the body, it is better to immediately take the red thread - so you will have a ready-made similarity of Peppa's dress and you will not need to knit it additionally.
- The arms and legs of this toy, as a rule, are not stuffed with filler, but you can do this in the process of knitting.
- Eyes and cheeks are recommended to be cut from felt. You can also embroider them with thread, like a mouth.
In the same way, but with other colors, you can connect the remaining members of the cheerful Peppa family - George's brother, dad and mother (for parents of the mumps, calculate larger sizes). If you like other characters, you can try to make Piglet or Funtik, or just piglets.
Piglet Piglet crocheted
Piglet knits, like an ordinary amigurumi piglet - various parts separately, which are then stuffed with filler (not all) and sewn together. In addition, you will need to tie the Piglet of the panties, make him an embroidery with a cell on them and sew the button. Also do not forget about the mandatory part - the famous green ball. If you want the piglet to stand, he will need to sew coins into his legs, and also to make a stand (on thick cardboard or plastic), to which the ball will be attached with wire.
There is not much time before the New Year. What do needlewomen give to relatives? Of course, needlework. After all, the most expensive ones want to give a piece of their warmth, their soul. And how to do it if you don’t put love and tenderness in the loops, without connecting a miracle from the loops.
2019 according to the eastern calendar is the year of the Yellow Earth Pig (or Earth Boar). It seems that the earthen Pig is also perfect for the title "symbol of the year." We suggest going to 2019 with the motto: “Get plenty of pigs, good and different.”
Talismans - who are they?
For the talisman to bring happiness, it must:
- evoke positive emotions;
- to be in sight all the time;
- it should be nice to touch;
- it should not be large and compact.
We present you a selection of knitted piglets. Their schemes are clear and accessible, for which special thanks to the authors. Piglets are different, but they are united by the fact that they fit the description of the talismans.
First of all, they are pigs. Small and adult, serious and funny, pink and colored. Secondly, by their grace, they create that very, positive, touching, warm mood. It’s nice to touch them, like any hand-made thing, and even more so, a toy.
What is the use of them
Such pigs can be used in different ways.
- Like a toy for a child or adult. Turn in your hands, kiss on a piglet, grunt to raise your mood until no one sees it.
- Like a keychain on a purse, on keys, on a makeup bag. Or a suspension in a car.
- As a desktop “keeper of order” at home or in the office. By the way, do not forget that the pig is a piggy bank. In a safe or just in a stocking, where you store your savings, a knitted pig will be very out of place.
- Like a Christmas tree toy. Or submissive.
A knitted toy can be given separately or attached to a great gift. And also a great idea for positive people: if you have long wanted to plant a pig for someone, do it! There may be no other chance.
