Monkey crochet: diagram and description. Knitted Monkey Toy

A beautiful gift can be a self-tied monkey crochet. The scheme and description of the entire process is step by step present in this article. Also, the methods of binding the initial loop, the air chain, the column without the crochet are discussed in detail here. That is, even a completely inept knitter will get a knitted crocheted monkey. The master class of the work published here is an instruction, as it's called, from A to Z.

Crochet crochet rules

If the needlewoman decided to master this art form, she must know and observe the important conditions that help to make a quality product.

1. The viscous should be rather dense, otherwise the filler will come out through the gaps between the filaments. Therefore, basically, the work uses a column without a crochet. It is also important to choose a hook of the right size and a suitable yarn thickness.
2. In order for a skilled craftsman to have a beautiful knitted monkey, the crochet is usually carried out separately, which are then stuffed with a filler and sewn into a common product.
3. The basic shape of the details can be ovate, spherical or ellipsoidal. Therefore, when we knit a monkey crochet, every detail begins with the implementation of the so-called "cup". Finish the part by decreasing the number of columns (decreasing the length of the rows) - this is the second important point of work.

In fact, it is quite easy to crochet a monkey crochet. Scheme and description of the performance of each part will help to cope with the work of even a beginner master.

Beginning of knitting - the first loop

So, the mistress made a decision: she will be bound by a monkey crochet! The scheme and description of the process are found, materials and tools purchased. However, we need to deal with all this, because the hook itself does not knit. And the icons on the diagram can not speak.

When we knit a monkey crochet, then the pattern is read from the middle. And there the red oval marked the initial loop. That is, in order to tie a monkey crochet, one must learn to perform this very first loop.

To do this, put the working thread on the index finger of the left hand, pressing its free tip large. Then we enter the working part of the tool from left to right and twist around itself so that a loop is obtained. Now follow the thumb of the left hand to hold the twisting place so that the loop does not tighten. Again introducing the tool under the thread from left to right, the master grabs yarn from them and drags it through the loop. That is, simply hooked to the thread, and the loop that was on it is removed. So on the working tool should appear a new loop, which should be tightened to the required density.

Knitting chains from air loops

People say: "Licha misfortune is the beginning!" And since the needlewoman coped with the first loop, therefore, she has already begun to create such a hand-made article as a monkey, crocheted. Scheme and description, often looking like a drawing, show the master that you need to tie a chain of six air loops.

Having mastered the first loop, the needlewoman can easily cope with the task. Next, she enters the hook with a loop on it from left to right under the working thread, grabs it and pulls it. With this action, the loop that was already on it, slides, and the new loop as it were dragged through its middle. In the drawing, the air loop is usually represented by an empty oval or circle.

Even a beginner skilled worker will be able to create such an article as a crocheted monkey, a crochet, the scheme will help her to understand this process.

Formation of a ring from a chain

The master will necessarily get a wonderful monkey, crocheted, but in the event that she learns to read the scheme. You should also be able to correctly perform the actions encrypted in the drawings. And then from under the hands of the needlewoman there will be a wonderful monkey crocheted. The description of the reading scheme continues.

So, we see that the chain on the diagram has the form of a ring. The descriptions are usually written like this: "Join the chain in a circle". Make it simple.

After the chain of six loops is ready, the wizard enters the hook into the first loop, drags the thread through it and the last loop of the chain.

To go to the first row of mating, you need to make one air loop. This should be done every time the series ends and you need to go to the next one. In our scheme, this lifting loop is represented by a lilac oval.

Stack without crochet

To the filler does not get out through the holes between the loops and rows, the crochet monkey should be tied using pillars without a crochet.

The knitting principle is based on the above-described method of pulling the thread with the loops that are on the hook. Only grab the yarn should be, by inserting the tool into the middle of the loop of the previous row. This process is similar to how the chain is fastened to a ring. However, the thread is stretched only through the column of the previous row, leaving the loop already in place on the hook unused.

Thus, the wizard on the instrument formed at once two loops. And they should be tied together, passing through them the crocheted thread. The instrument must have one loop left.

Of course, in the course of work, you need to monitor the tension of the thread and the density of work to make a beautiful crocheted monkey crochet. The scheme will tell you when to do in the work of adding to get a "cup" - the initial stage of knitting the head, trunk, lower parts of the limbs.

Adding Bars, or Knitting "Cups"

In the diagram suggested above, the icons show how to act if you need a monkey crocheted. We have already considered the beginning of work - the first loop, a chain of air loops, fastening it into a ring. And now we go to the first row of crochet monkey crochet. The schemes proposed in this article have one more icon, similar to the English letter V. It means "adding a column", or untying two columns without a crocheting from one loop.

That is, in the same loop of the previous row, the hook is inserted twice. The algorithm of the process of performing the column without the crochet remains the same.

It is worth noting that in the same way not only the beginning of the head of a toy is tied. The lower part of the monkey crochet limbs is also executed. Schemes of work show their difference: it is that only the rows in these details are smaller. Therefore, their depth, as well as the diameter, varies according to the master's desire in the direction of decreasing.

Executing the head of a toy

In fact, all knitted toys are performed according to the same algorithm. First you need to tie the head in the shape of a ball. Therefore, suitable for the bear cub, and for the monkey crochet schemes laid out here.

So, the "cup" has turned out to be of sufficient depth and the required diameter. According to our scheme, this takes five series. But the master at his own will can make the addition more, tying out two columns of those that were chosen for this initially - in the second row.

Now we should decide whether our crocheted monkey (crochet) will have a spherical or ellipsoidal head. The description of the work differs only in the number of rows tied with columns without a crochet without an increase.

For a spherical head, approximately seven such rows are performed. If you make more, the part will have an elongated shape. And the more such series, the more elongated will be the head.

Then the next stage of work begins - reduction. The diagram shows how the length of the series decreases. That is, at certain points you need to tie one loop with not two traditional posts, but three. Although the scheme and there is an inverted English V, but it just indicates that one column "leaves".

When the hole becomes not very large, it should be filled with filler. Now almost ready to head, which will "think", there are bananas and build hilarious grimaces, our clever knitted crochet monkey.

Description of attachment to the head of the trunk

Some masters prefer to tighten the hole of the head completely. This is done in such a way as to make the ball. Then the torso is tied separately and sewn to the head. At us the variant of "tram" when the trunk starts to be knit directly from aperture of a head will be considered. Get a more practical toy-monkey crochet.

A master class with step-by-step photos shows the entire process in detail.

By the way, the algorithm of knitting of the trunk differs from the process of creating the head only by the number of rows performed without addition (this was mentioned above).

Scheme of crocheting monkey muzzle

Since these cheerful animals are different in that the lower part of the muzzle is somewhat protruding forward, another detail should be made-an oval patch in the shape of a "cup." Only then will the real monkey crochet.

The description of this stage of work is as follows:

1. A chain of five air loops is fitted. It does not need to be sealed in a ring!
2. The first row is located on one side of the chain. From the last loop of the row, three columns are tied.
3. The second row is located on the other side of the chain. Thus, knitting goes round. From the last loop of the row, there are also three columns.
4. In the following series, the addition is performed according to the scheme - only along the edges of the part.

The overlay on the muzzle is preferably made of a lighter yarn. Before sewing, you can draw or embroider on it a smiling mouth and nostrils.

Assembling the product

Craftsmen perform a variety of crocheted crocheted monkeys. With the schemes of manufacturing the head, trunk, limbs, muzzle lining, we have already met. The tail can be weaved by a braid or tied together by a large crochet of several stacked threads by an air chain.

Ears knit in the form of round pancakes. This is done in the same way as the "cup" for the head, only add columns more often, then the detail will be flat, not convex.

When ready-made parts are ready, the master stuffs them with filler. Then follow the overlay on the muzzle sewing to the front of the head, pre-laying under the protuberance of sintepon. Eyes make of buttons or buy already ready in specialized stores.

The limbs are sewn in such a way that the filler is not noticeable. On the tummy at will, the craftsman can tie and sew a white circle.

Some needlewomen prefer to "dress" their little animals. Clothing can be sewn and tied.

Using a knitted monkey toy

Today, the direction of hand make was very fashionable. Veshchichkami, made by themselves, decorate the interior, they are presented as a gift to close people.

For example, a funny knitted monkey can be presented not only for the New Year, but for a man born in the year of the Monkey. And you can make a sofa pillow, stuffing it with an sintepon. The crocheted monkey crochet looks cute with elongated and rather soft forelimbs, which it is convenient to tie curtains in the children's room. Beautiful and original.

Yes, and a small toy-monkey, crocheted, can be used to decorate knitted cup holders, handbags, children's little things, as key fobs.
