Crocheted Easter gift.

Traditionally, everyone gives each other gifts on Easter. I suggest making them yourself. Knitted eggs can be used to decorate the interior of your home for the holiday, make a composition out of them, or put them in a basket or vase. Such a gift will definitely be remembered and appreciated. Based on a knitted egg, you can knit other quite interesting gifts.

Notations used in the article:

RLS - single crochet,

VP - air loop,

СС - connecting post,

PR = increase - knit 2 sc in one loop,

UB = decrease - instead of two sc, you need to knit 1 sc. (You can simply skip one sc of the previous row and knit in the next one, then a hole will form.) I found a way to knit decreases so that they are not noticeable. I am sharing with you.

Chickens.

These wonderful chicks are knitted from white acrylic (50 g 133 m), the remnants of yellow grass-stretch yarn from Kamtex, hooks No. 2 and No. 3. You will also need: filler, 2 beads with a diameter of 6 mm or black threads for the eyes, red floss threads for the beak.

We knit the same way as an egg (see text above) with yellow yarn with pile. As you knit, if it suddenly seems that the chicken is fluffier on the wrong side, you can turn this unknitted egg inside out. Knit eggshells with white thread in the other direction, along the new front side. We knit a white hat on top separately (just like the place where it will lie). It will be held in a bow on the top of the head. We pierce the top of the head with a needle and thread, make one stitch, and tie the ends of the thread with a bow.

How to knit a chicken beak.

Take red floss and hook No. 2. We collect 6 sc in the amigurumi ring. SS close them in a circle.

1 row. *PR, 2 RLS* 2 times. Total 8 sc.

2nd row. *PR, 3 RLS* 2 times. Total 10 sc.

Sew the beak to the body. Sew button eyes or embroider eyes with black thread.

The chicken is ready!

Decorative Easter napkin

Have you ever met such a beauty? Again, everything is quite simple!

I don’t know how to knit the ducks next to the photo. But there is a description of similar and even better baskets with bunnies.

So, for the napkin, first we knit a circle with double crochets.

Separately, we make an openwork border and sew it to the round blank at some distance from the edge.

Now the edges of the frill need to be folded and attached to the base of the circle using knitted flowers.

Decorative or boiled colored eggs can be placed in the resulting pockets.

Gift for Easter. Hen.

To crochet an Easter chicken we will need:

- a little acrylic or woolen yarn of white or beige color (I used Schachenmayr Idena Plus yarn, 100% acrylic, 50 g. = 133 m.); - some brown yarn (for the nest) (I used the remains of Gjestal Superwash Sport yarn, 100% wool, 50 g = 100 m.) - the remains of red and yellow yarn (I used for the comb - Schachenmayr Idena Plus, 100% acrylic , 50 g = 133 m, for the beak - “Lotus” from the Kamtex factory, 100% acrylic, 50 g = 150 m in 2 threads); - hook No. 4; — filler (sintepon is best); - cardboard for the base of the nest (you don’t have to use it); - black threads.

Knitting description:

Chicken body:

Row 1: cast on 2 ch. and close it in a ring. Knit 6 tbsp. b/n. [= 6 tbsp. b/n]. Next knit in the round;

2nd row: *increase*. Repeat * 6 times [= 12 tbsp. b/n].

Rows 6-7 (2 rows): knit st. b/n [= 24 tbsp. b/n];

Row 8: * increase, 3 tbsp. b/n*. Repeat * 6 times [= 30 tbsp. b/n].

Rows 9-11 (3 rows): knit st. b/n [= 30 tbsp. b/n];

Row 22: * decrease, 1 tbsp. b/n *. Repeat * 6 times [= 12 tbsp. b/n]; If necessary, add a little more filler.

Rows 23-24: repeat decreases until the hole is completely closed. Break the thread and hide the end inside.

Beak:

Row 1: cast on 2 ch. and close it in a ring. Knit 6 tbsp. b/n. [= 6 tbsp. b/n]. Next knit in the round;

2nd row: *increase, 1 tbsp. b/n *. Repeat * 3 times [= 9 tbsp. b/n].

3rd row: * increase, 2 tbsp. b/n *. Repeat * 3 times [= 12 tbsp. b/n].

4th row: knit the entire row of st. b/n [= 12 tbsp. b/n]. Break the thread

Wings (2 parts):

2nd row: *increase*. Repeat * 6 times [= 12 tbsp. b/n].

3rd row: * increase, 5 tbsp. b/n *. Repeat * 2 times [= 14 tbsp. b/n].

Rows 4-6 (3 rows): knit st. b/n [= 14 tbsp. b/n];

Row 7 (incomplete): 7 tbsp. b/n, 1 tbsp, break the thread.

Scallop:

1st row (persons): on the top of the chicken, knit 7 tbsp directly along the knitted fabric. b/n. It is best to start with the loops of the 2nd row, and then move through the crown towards the back of the chicken. At the same time, you must try to knit all the stitches in one straight line [= 7 tbsp. b/n]. Turn knitting over;

Row 2 (purl): ch 1 rise, 1 vp, skip 1 tbsp. b/n of the previous row and knit 1 tbsp. b/n, 1 vp, skip 1 tbsp. b/n of the previous row and knit 1 tbsp. b/n. Thus, in the second row we have formed 3 arches (holes). Turn the knitting over.

Row 3 (knit): - ch 2 lifting, 3 tbsp. s/n in the first arch, 2 vp, 1 s. Art. in the first arch (the first petal of the comb) - 1 s. Art. to go to the second arch, 2 ch. lifting, 1 tbsp. s/n, 1 tbsp. with 2n, 1 tbsp. s/n, 2 vp, 1 s. Art. in the second arch (second petal of the comb) - 1 s. Art. to move to the third arch, 2 ch. lifting, 3 tbsp. s/n, 2 vp, 1 s. Art. into the third arch (third petal of the comb) Break the thread and tuck it inside.

The tail is knitted according to the same principle as the comb.

1st row (persons): at the level of the 15-16th row of the body, knit 7 tbsp directly along the knitted fabric. b/n. thread of the same color as the body (try to place the tail strictly in the middle of the back of the chicken) [= 7 tbsp. b/n]. Turn knitting over;

3rd row (knit): - 2 ch. lifting, 3 tbsp. s/n in the first arch, 2 vp, 1 s. Art. in the first arch (first petal of the tail) - 1 s. Art. to go to the second arch, 2 ch. lifting, 1 tbsp. s/n, 2 tbsp. with 2n, 1 tbsp. s/n, 2 vp, 1 s. Art. in the second arch (second petal of the tail) - 1 s. Art. to move to the third arch, 2 ch. lifting, 3 tbsp. s/n, 2 vp, 1 s. Art. into the third arch (third petal of the ponytail) Break the thread and tuck it inside.

Advice:

If you are unable to cast on stitches directly from the knitted fabric or cast on does not form a straight line, you can knit the comb and tail separately and then sew them to the body. To do this, you need to cast on 7 chain stitches in the first row, and then knit according to the description, knitting double stitches of the first row into chain stitches.

Nest.

1 row. Knit 6 tbsp into an amigurumi ring. b/n. [= 6 tbsp. b/n]. Next knit in the round;

2nd row: *increase*. Repeat * 6 times [= 12 tbsp. b/n].

3rd row: * increase, 1 tbsp. b/n *. Repeat * 6 times [= 18 tbsp. b/n].

4th row: * increase, 2 tbsp. b/n *. Repeat * 6 times [= 24 tbsp. b/n].

Row 5: * increase, 3 tbsp. b/n*. Repeat * 6 times [= 30 tbsp. b/n].

Row 6: * increase, 4 tbsp. b/n*. Repeat * 6 times [= 36 tbsp. b/n].

Row 7: * increase, 5 tbsp. b/n*. Repeat * 6 times [= 42 tbsp. b/n].

Row 8: knit st. s/n, capturing only the back half-loop of the columns of the previous row [= 42 st. b/n].

Note!

When switching to double crochet, the bottom can expand greatly, but later, after 9-11 rows are knitted, it should take the shape of a “cup” with vertical walls. If this does not happen and the bottom is more reminiscent of a flat plate than a glass, I recommend reducing the number of loops in the 8th row, for example, in those places where increases were made in the 7th row, skip 1 stitch of the previous row or, even more preferably, knit 2 stitches together as described above.

Rows 9-11 (3 rows): knit st. s/n [= 42 st. b/n];

Row 12: knit the entire circular row in a crawfish step. Break the thread.

For greater stability, you can place a circle of cardboard at the bottom of the nest, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the bottom.

Tips for making a nest:

I recommend doing the transition from single crochets to double crochets gradually, i.e. in the 8th row knit 1 tbsp. b/n, then 1 half double crochet, and then continue knitting with double crochets, capturing only the back half loop of the previous row. In the next circular row, at the transition point, I also recommend knitting 1 half double crochet, and then continue knitting with double crochets. This will make the transition look smoother and smoother.

If a knitted chicken is an Easter gift,

then it is better to hide the cardboard disk between two knitted layers, in other words, make the bottom double. To do this, you need to knit the inner bottom according to the description of 1-7 rows and break the thread, then knit the outer bottom, also according to the description of 1-7 rows, but do not break the thread.

Next, attach the bottoms with the wrong sides to each other, put a cardboard base between them and knit the 8th row of double crochets, hooking the outer bottom only to the back half-loop, and the inner bottom to both half-loops.

Please note that a double bottom with cardboard inside is higher than a single bottom, so the height of 4 rows of double crochets may not be enough. In this case, knit another circular row with double crochets (i.e. the height of the nest will be 5 rows of double crochets, not 4), and then tie the nest in a crawfish step.

Assembly:

1. Put a little filler into the beak and sew it to the body;

2. Sew on the wings;

3. Design the face;

4. Place the chicken in the nest.

Here's a gift for you for Easter. Knitted Easter chicken is ready!

You will need another container, the diameter of which is 1-1.5 cm larger and the depth is 10 cm. We insert our basket into it and form beautiful waves. Let it dry. To make it dry faster, you can periodically dry it with a hairdryer. The most important thing is to dry the waves well. Once the waves have dried, the basket can be pulled out of the second container, turned over and the bottom dried. While the basket dries, knit a handle.
