What is fraught with such a symbol of the coming year according to Chinese calendar? At the same time, it can be both bright and demonstrative, as well as elegant. But it is not for nothing that the year is marked by fiery or otherwise red, which means it will be playful and perky, sociable, full of events and life. Therefore, the toy in the form of a rooster, which we will create with you, should be as similar as possible to the image of the coming year. Today I want to offer you a more classic, but at the same time bright model. knitted cockerel.

We will need:

• red weed yarn one skein will be enough;
• red yarn of medium thickness, with a minimum content of wool for the scallop;
• yarn weed dark of blue color, as well as the colors of the sea wave, one skein;
• spokes straight number four;
• stocking needles number four and a half;
• hook number two or a needle with a large eye for connecting parts;
• copper wire of medium thickness;
• decorative eyes or buttons on the stem are black;
• scissors;
• filler, in the form of synthetic winterizer or foamed polystyrene;

Progress: rooster body

• We will knit the body of the rooster pear-shaped.
• We start knitting from the bottom - up, connecting together the blue threads of both shades, the body of the rooster is knitted together with the head.
• On stocking needles number four and a half we collect simple method set of only eleven loops and then knit in a circle.
• Now we knit with a simple facial stitch, adding ten loops in every second row, evenly distributing them over the knitting needles.
• When fifty-one loops are formed on the knitting needles, it will be necessary to knit three rows without adding loops. Next, knit four rows without changes.
• Then we begin to decrease five loops in every fourth row of knitted fabric. We pass to the thread of red color, it is better to fold it in half.
• When twenty-one loops remain on the knitting needles, again we knit three rows according to the pattern without additions and decreases.
• Next, we decrease by removing five loops evenly in one row, at the end of the row we should get sixteen.
• We knit four more rows and, stretching the thread through all the loops, pull them together.

Attention! As the body of the rooster is knitted, we fill it with padding polyester or foamed polystyrene.

Rooster comb:

• We take yarn prepared specifically for the scallop.
• We collect sixteen loops and knit four rows with a pattern that was used to knit the torso.
• Next, to form the scallops, we knit as follows: we knit two loops, and the third and fourth together, turn the knitting and knit from the inside without changes. Then we knit one loop from the front side, the second and third together, unfold again and knit without changes. Next, we return to front side and we knit two loops together, we pass the thread through the loop and cut it off. We tie the thread to the next loops and repeat the same with the middle four loops, and then with the next four loops.
• We knit the second part of the comb symmetrically, we connect the two parts together, so that the front surface is outside and the wrong side is inside.
• You can connect both with a needle and a crochet, whichever is more convenient for you.
• Next, we begin to sew the comb to the head, placing it from the frontal part to the back of the head, and fill it as it is sewn.

Rooster Wings:

• We knit with red grass, they do not need to be filled, and we knit only two parts.
• We collect on straight knitting needles number four six loops and knit four rows.
• Then in every fourth row we knit as follows: a loop from the knitting needle, an increase in the loop, so to the end of the row. last we knit a loop from the knitting needle.
• When there are thirty loops on the knitting needles, you need to start knitting feathers, they, like the fingers on the hand, should turn out five.
• We knit them according to the principle of festoons on the comb. Only the number of loops in each pen will be six.
• That is, to form the first feather, we knit the first four loops without changes with the main pattern, then the fifth and sixth together. We turn the knitting over and knit the purl rows without changes. In the next front row, we knit three loops, and the fourth and fifth together; then two loops, and the third and fourth together, so we continue until there are two loops on the knitting needles, through which we pass and tighten the thread. Continue knitting according to this principle to form the remaining fingers - feathers.

Assembly:

• Sew the top of the wings to the border of the flowers on the body.
  
• Cut the wire into twenty centimeters and wrap tightly with threads different colors the more, the fluffier the tail. Next, we thread the thin "feathers" of the tail into that part of the body where they belong, to the middle and bend in half. We do this with all the blanks - the "feathers" of the tail.
• We form a leg from wire with spurs and wrap it with red threads, as for a comb, as well as a rooster's beak. We fix the legs in the right place.
  
• We sew on buttons or glue decorative eyes and our rooster is ready.

Inspiration to you and creative success.

Classmates

Rooster crochet- bright and original toy, which you can knit as a gift for a godson, a child of a close friend, or maybe directly for a friend. will surely bring good luck, will protect throughout the year, because the Cockerel symbolizes courage and courage.

Rooster crochet

We will use the master class on creating "Catherine Hen" - a popular toy among knitters who are fond of amigurumi, only we will succeed crochet rooster, scheme quite complex and has its own subtleties, but everyone who has basic knitting skills can handle it. You need to learn how to do air loops and single crochets, as well as being able to knit in a circle, that's all the skills needed to make knitted.

Crocheted rooster is carried out in several stages, more precisely - each of its parts is knitted separately, and then sewn into a solid toy that will stand steadily on its paws. It is necessary to connect the body (49 rows), the head (29 rows) with a serrated edge (30 p.), the tail (10 p.), two identical wings (19 p.). The legs are also knitted separately, while at first each toe is knitted separately, which are then connected together. Earrings, red comb and beak are miniature details of our cockerel, which will be crocheted and then sewn to the product.

As for the colors of yarn: red yarn is always used for earrings and comb, orange or terracotta yarn for beak and legs. For the head and calf, you should take the threads of the contrast bright color. The result is a very beautiful toy that will decorate the holiday and a memory for many years to come. The cockerel's body will look beautiful if you decorate a knitted fabric with circles cut out of felt and then glued to the fabric.

Separately, you need to prepare the eyes: buy eyes for dolls small size in the store or sew tiny black beads in their place.

Volumetric amigurumi toys require a filler: usually a synthetic winterizer is used as a stuffing, you can also take synthetic balls to create an interesting tactile toy.

When you knit every detail of our craft, you should not cut the thread short, the remaining long end you will need to sew all the pieces together. Each individual part must be stuffed tightly with filler, leaving no empty spaces - the parts are stuffed before pulling off the last row.

If you are familiar with, then you still have to familiarize yourself with the intricacies of creating amigurumi toys. The main difference is that for amigurumi, a hook is always taken, the size of which is slightly smaller than that required for a given yarn density. This allows you to achieve a very tight knit and create an even fabric through which the fibers of the padding polyester will not seep.

Crocheted rooster

As we have already said to crochet a rooster you need to be able to perform a regular single crochet - this is the main loop, thanks to which a dense knitted fabric is created.

Knitting begins with the main thing - from the body, which consists of 49 rows. First, there is an addition of loops in each row according to the circle pattern - up to 15 rows. From 15 to 26 inclusive - a straight fabric is knitted without additions, and then a gradual decrease in loops begins in each row. There is a special scheme for decreasing: at 27, a decrease is made every 12 columns, then two rows are knitted without decreases - the 28th and 29th rows, and at 30 the columns are again removed, this time after 11 sc, thus continuing to the 49th row - the last one.

The head is knitted a little more difficult, because it is not an even oval, so first you will complete a circle up to 6 p. - you should get 36 loops, after that up to 11 p. you will knit 36 ​​loops without changing their number. At 12, increase again after 5 sc - 42 loops. From 13 to 15 their number does not change. At 16 - they are added after 13 sc. At 17-18 - without additions. At 19 - after 14 sc. Up to 24 - do not change the number of columns. In rows 25-29, loops are added gradually, starting from the scheme - after 7 sc. You will end up with a bell-shaped head detail, and the bottom edge will be "serrated", so the transition line between the head and the body will be hidden under the frill.

When you knit the feet, you need to start with the fingers: the central one will be larger than the rest. Then three fingers are tied together and stuffed with padding polyester, after which the foot is tied, which is connected to the straight part of the leg.

So that you can easily understand the process of how it fits crochet rooster, description And step by step photos we have prepared, if you follow the scheme, then you will get a beautiful and neat christmas toy amigurumi.

There are others original variants execution of this knitted craft, for example, in the form of a pillow from the motifs " african flower". This motif is used by needlewomen to create voluminous soft toys, and the Cockerel figurine can also be brought to life. It will be a three-dimensional triangle with decorative elements- a beak, crest and earrings, and on the sides there will be wings.

Knitting will be carried out using the amigurumi method.
As usual with this method, we will start with a ring of 6 loops.
With each row, we will increase their number until it reaches 42 loops.
So, we now have 6 loops.
In the new row, we knit 2 sc in each loop in these 6 loops.
And in a new row of 12, we must make 18 loops.
To do this, we knit in each column bottom row new RLS according to the following scheme: 1 RLS, approx.
So we get 18 loops, in the new row there should be 24 of them.
To do this, we use the following scheme: 2 RLS, approx. and so on.
Next: 3 sc, approx. We get 30 loops.
In the new row: 4 sc, approx. We get 36 loops.
And the last row with an increase: 5 sc, approx.
That we got a circle of 42 loops.
Next, we will simply knit 5 rows of 42 sc.

Now we will once again increase the number of loops by 6.
To do this, we perform according to the scheme: 6 RLS, approx.
Then we perform 2 rows of 48 sc.


Next, we will add according to a different scheme: we perform 6 RLS.
1 sc, approx. So 6 times. That is 6 increments.
Next, we knit 12 sc, 1 in each loop. And 6 more times 1 sc, approx.
In the remaining loops, we perform 1 sc. The result will be 60 loops.
2 rows of 60 sc.
Increase again: 6 sc.
2 sc, approx., so also 6 times.
12 sc, and again 6 times 2 sc, approx.
In the remaining 1 sc. We get 72.
2 rows of 72 sc.


We start to subtract.
We will make reductions in accordance with approx.
In the first decreasing row, we do this: 6 sc.
2 sc, kill So 6 times.
12 sc.
2 sc, kill Again 6 times.
In the remaining loops, 1 sc.
We get 60 loops again.
We carry out 2 rows of 60 sc.
Subtract: 6 sc.
1 sc, kill (6 times), 12 sc, 1 sc, dec. (6 times).
We get 48 loops.
We carry out 1 row of 48 loops.
Next, we subtract in the usual way: 6 RLS, ub. So to the end of the row. We get 42 loops.
Next: 5 sc, dec. 36 loops.
4 sc, kill 30 loops.
3 sc, kill 24 loops.
We fill the cockerel's body with synthetic winterizer.
And we keep adding.
2 sc, kill 18 loops.
1 sc, kill 12 loops.
Then we reduce to the end until the hole closes. The body is ready!

We perform the cockerel's beak

Again we make a ring of 6 loops.
We add through 1 loop. We get 9.
We carry out 3 more rows with an increase through 1 loop. As a result, we get 18 loops.
In the next row we knit 5 sc and do approx. into the next loop.
Now we perform 2 sc and add to the next 2 loops.
We knit 2 sc and again add to the next loop. We perform 5 sc.
As a result, we get 22 loops.
Next, we will perform 5 RLS, inc., 4 RLS, 2 increases, 4 RLS, 1 inc., 5 RLS. We get 26 loops.


Now we carry out the lower part of the beak.
We carry out a ring of 3 loops.
Next, add to each loop and get 6 loops.
We add 1 row through each loop. We get 9 loops.
And 1 more row, adding every 2 loops.

Now we perform the wings of the cockerel

One wing will consist of 3 parts.
We carry out a ring of 6 loops.
We knit 2 rows of 6 loops.
1 part is ready, these need to be connected 2 more.
Now we will sew them.
For the first part, we perform 3 RLS, go to the 2nd and also perform 3 RLS.
We also go to the 3rd part and perform 3 RLS in the same way.
We turn around and perform 1 row of 1 sc in each loop.
We do 1 VP, turn around.
Next, we will knit in turn rows, making 1 decrease at the beginning and at the end of each row.


We carry out 1 more wing.

Now we make a tail

It consists of 2 parts.
We collect a ring of 6 loops with yellow threads.
Change the thread to red.
We perform with an increase in each loop.
Next, add through 1 loop.
We knit 1 more row, adding through 2 loops.
We got 24 loops. Work 1 row, 1 sc in each st.
Now we decrease through 2 loops.
Next, we do kill. through the loop.
We get 12 sc.
We carry out 2 rows of 12 sc.
We decrease in each loop.

We perform a scallop

We form a ring of 6 loops.
Increase to 12, adding to each loop.
We increase the number of loops to 30, adding amigurumi according to the classic scheme.
That is, through 1 loop, then a row through 2, a row through 3.
We carry out 5 rows of 30 sc.
Decrease to 24 stitches.
We carry out 1 row.
Further, in the same way, according to the classical scheme, we reduce to 12 loops.

We have to tie a beard

It also consists of 2 parts.
First, we make a ring of 6 loops. We increase them to 12.
We carry out 2 rows of 12 sc.
Now we do this: 1 sc, kill. Until the end of the row.
1 row we perform 1 sc.
We decrease in each loop.
We get 4 loops.
We do the same detail.


Now we just have to sew all the details on the body and glue the eyes.

neck plumage

Use scarlet thread. Make 48 loops. Divide them also into four knitting needles. Knit in stockinette stitch. Add in 4, 6, 8 rows of 8 loops. After 10 rows, divide 72 loops by 9. You will get 8 feather parts, each of which must be knitted separately. In every fourth row, close one loop. So do it twice. 2 more rows once, 1 loop each. The remaining 3 knit two rows, complete.

Rooster head plumage

We move from the top. Cast on 8 stitches with dark yellow thread. Next, knit stitch. In each 2 rows, add 1 loop twice on each side. You should get 12 loops. In the eighth and tenth row, reduce one loop on both sides. The remainder should be eight loops. In the next fourth row, add one loop. In every second - one loop five times.

After 23 rows, make a rounding with the reduced rows. In the direction from the right edge, knit 17 facial loops, fold, make one crochet and purl 14. Mark. Roll up - 1 yarn over. Before him, knit facial loops. Yarn over and knit together with knit stitches. Roll up. Again, one crochet, knit with purl stitches until the yarn over. nakid. Knit the next loop together with the purl crossed. From the mark, repeat 2 times. Cast on 20 stitches on one side and knit in the round. In the fifth and tenth row, add 8 stitches each. The result should be 56 loops.

After 14 rows, again divide into several identical elements of 7 loops. Rooster feathers are knitted separately, by closing 1 loop in each 4 rows. Do this twice. The remaining 3 loops knit a couple more rows, then complete.

Beak

Top:

Cast on 14 loops with yellow thread. In the 7th row on both sides, close 1 loop once, then in each 5th row, one more. Finish the remaining 2 loops. Embroider the nostrils with black thread - a couple of loop stitches.

Bottom:

Sew 12 loops with a yellow thread. In the 5th row on each side, complete 1 loop. Run this one time. Then in the next every fourth row, 1 more loop. Complete the rest of the pair.

scallop

With a scarlet thread, make 26 air loops, 1 more for lifting. Knit with a single crochet. After 4 rows, knit each festoon independently of each other. From the mark of 3 rows to 6 loops. Further along the small left edge in the column of each of the 3 rows, knit 1 single crochet. From the mark, duplicate this four more times. Add each of the four scallops on 5 loops.

Earrings

They knit twice. Using purple thread, tie a chain of 7 air loops, one more for lifting. Work 5 rows in single crochet. On the 2nd row, add 1 loop, and on the 4th row, remove it.

Tail

Use thread different shades. The element is knitted twice. First, make a chain of 34 air loops and another one for lifting. Knit in this way for five rows with a single crochet. Place the first row behind the last one, connect them with a stitch.

cock paws

Knitting takes place in the transverse direction. With a yellow thread, make a chain of 12 air loops and one more for lifting. Work 3 rows in single crochet. From the mark of the fourth row, knit on 6 loops. Next, tie a chain of 6 air loops and 1 for lifting. Repeat this way for 3 rows in a column, do not double crochet. From the mark, repeat four more times. The paw element is folded and tied along the contour with the help of connecting posts.

Eyes

Knit with scarlet thread. A chain of six air loops is complemented by another one for lifting. It is tied with 6 columns without a cape. Roll up and on the reverse side, tie a chain of 7 stitches without a cape. When making rooster eyes with knitting needles, you can follow the description, but you can also install ready-made plastic eyes.

We collect a rooster

First, the front element is sewn with the side elements. The body and head of the bird are stuffed, which is sewn to the hole in the neck. Feathers of the head are sewn along the upper edges. Feathers of the neck region are sewn immediately under the feathers of the head.

Both elements of the beak are superimposed and sewn together, after which they are sewn to the head. A comb and earrings are also attached there.

Master class: crochet a rooster

In the process of crocheting a rooster, you will need:

• yarn of different colors to your taste;
• hook;
• needle and scissors;
• filler (synthetic winterizer, holofiber);
• silicone glue;
• piece of felt.

Process description

1. Let's start with the bird's head. We cast on 5 loops, close the chain in a circle. We knit the rows with a single crochet. Increase each next row by a few loops. Having received the desired diameter, we begin to form a head-ball. To do this, we will gradually reduce the number of loops.

After narrowing, we will make the neck of a bird from several rows. To create the plumage of the neck, every 2 loops of the circle, you can perform 8-9 air loops and knit them with a single crochet.

1. In a similar way, we will execute the body of the bird, making it more elongated. Try a different color of yarn.
2. Let's start making the legs of the rooster from the fingers. We cast on 5 loops, connect them in several rows. So let's do 3 fingers. To combine them, we use the single crochet method. After removing a few loops, we will make 4 more rows. We knit 8 more loops in a circle to the height we need.
3. Fill the body, head and legs of the knitted rooster with filler. We will connect them together with a hidden seam.
4. From pieces of black felt, cut out the bird's eyes and glue them using silicone glue.
5. We knit a scallop from red yarn. We will collect a chain of 20 air loops, close it and knit 3 rows with a single crochet. Fold the ring in half, divide it into 3 parts (ridge waves). We will knit each part separately, reducing the number of loops up. Fill the comb with sintepon.
6. Similarly, we will perform the tail of the bird, but we will not fill it with filler. We knit three flat "tridents", imitating tail feathers.
7. For the wings, take green yarn. Gather 5 air loops into a ring. Using the method of knitting a single crochet, we will form a circle. We sharpen it from one edge, getting the shape of a drop. Tie the wings with a single crochet.
8. Similarly, we will make a comb and a beak, taking a yarn of a different color.
9. Let's assemble the rooster by connecting all the elements with a decorative seam.

Job is done! Crocheted rooster will be a great surprise for your family and friends.
