2. 1. Crochet giraffe legs: Hello everyone. We
are going to start this giraffe crochet
all together. For starters, we have to work the two legs and then
into continuous of that, we will work the
body on top of it. Alright, in order to do that, first we create a magic ring. Then I work six single crochet
inside of this magic ring. Then I is stretched a
yarn like this so I can tighten my ring and my
ring is smaller than, I'll attach the last
stitch that I've worked to my first chain. And in this way, I'm actually working a slip
stitch in the next row. First, I work and extra chain. And then inside of each one of these switches
from our previous row, I work to single crochet. It means that we have increasing
stitches in this row. Okay? Then again, I attached the last stitch to
the first chain, which means I work
as slip stitch. And then from the third
row until the seventh row, we continue working this
stitches without any increasing, with the same number
of 12 stitches, it means that inside
of each stage, we only work one single crochet. Now as you can see, we have worked the two
legs of our giraffe. And in the seventh row
on the last stitch, I worked three chains. And then I attach the
two legs to each other. I work as slip stitch
and then like that, my two legs are
attached to each other. So now we want to work
single crochet on both legs and also on the change that we
have in-between them. We should work one single
crochet on each single crochet. First, I work on one of
the legs completely. Then I get to the
chains which are in between the legs and
we've worked them. As you can see, we had
three chains over here. That even on these
three attaching chains, I'm going to work
my single crochet. I worked three single
crochet on the three chains. And then I'll do the same on the second leg as we did
on the previous Lake. I'm going to work single
crochet all around it. Okay. Now we've got to this three chains again
in between our legs. Now here, again on the
other side of the chains, I work a single crochet. Just like that. One of our
rows will be completed. Then I work as slippers
stitch like this. And just like that, we are actually starting
the body of our doll. Well, I should work
single crochet and I should work simply for 14 rows. It means that I shouldn't
have any increasing or decreasing of a
stitches on my rows. I just work a single crochet on each stitch until I get
to the top of the buddy. And I would go for
decreasing ruse for the shoulders and
the neck of our giraffe.
3. 2. Crochet of the giraffe's body and arms: Alright, As you can see, we've worked for 14
rows for the body. We also worked seven
rows for the legs. And in one row we actually
attach the two legs together. And we've done this
round working. And then again,
as I said before, we worked for 14 rows, simply for the body. Now into 15th row, I've just got to the center of those three chains
that I've used for attaching my legs together. Basically, I'm exactly in the middle line in the center of my dolls body right from here I want to have
decreasing a stitches. It means that I work two single crochets
together and this way, one stitch will
actually be reduced. Okay. So I continue to
like get to the back. And then again, right in
the center of my doll, again, I would have
another decreasing. See. Again, I go to the center of my dolls body and then again, I did next, two stitches
together like this. And then I'll continue my row. The next row, again we would
have decreasing is stitches. So again, I'm in the central vital in the front and then the back
would be the same too. So I've done my
working on the sides. Then I go to the center
and over here again, I work to single crochet together at the same
time to be as one. And then again, I continue
my working so I can get to the center of the back and
continue this procedure. Okay? There are two previous row
in the center of our LDL, in front or in back, we had decreasing stitches. Now in this row, I'm going to work
a single crochet, and then I'd be actually working the next two
single crochet together. Again. I work one single
crochet and then I worked at Next to single
crochet together as one. So I just continue the
same way till the end of the row so I can have the
upper body part of my giraffe. We would have decreasing
as stitches and we're actually going to make
the neck as well. Okay, so as you can see
in the previous row, we had decreasing a stitches that we worked with
a single crochet and then we work the second and the third is stitches
together as one. And we've continued that
till the end of the row. Now, from here on, we are going to work for almost nine rows without
any decreasing is stitches. To work. Our giraffe's neck. There's just one hint over here. And it's that before you
actually want to start this nine rows without
any decreasing messages, you should definitely
feel inside of your body. You should complete inside
of the legs completely. Also, inside of the body, completely should be filled. Alright, now, for
working our dolls hands, we need to first
create a magic ring. And inside of it, we are going to work
six single crochet. First, I work at chain, and then I start
my single crochet. The first chain that I create is actually as a single crochet. It works as a single crochet. Therefore, after that, I
should only work five more single crochet and
air go altogether, there will be six
single crochet. And then I work as slip stitch. I work in extra chain. The beginning of each row, we should work chains as the
amount and as the length of the stitches that we are
going to work in that row. E.g. if it was a single
crochet, one chain, if it was a half double
crochet two chain and it was, if it was a double crochet, three chains would be created
in the beginning of our. And right now, we
should actually increase the stitches
of our work. First I work one single crochet. And inside of the
next single crochet, I work to single crochet. It means that every
other stitch, I'm going to increase
the stitches. So again, one single crochet, and in the next stage of
work to single crochet, just till the end of your row, you should increase this
stitch every other than Atlas, you should work as
slippers stitch. Okay, right now we have nine single crochet
in the last row. So we're going to
continue this nine is stitches from the third row
until the 11th through. And we work simply without any increasing and
decreasing of stitches. And inside of each stitch, it should work as
single crochet. And you should just
create two hands, just as same as this one.
4. 3. Crochet horns, and crochet Giraffe's ears: We should actually work
to horns for our giraffe, that for our first five rows, I'm going to work
with my brown color. And then the next four rows
would be with yellow color. First, I create a magic
ring and inside of it, I worked five single crochet. First, I work a chain which actually goes as
a single crochet. And then after that, I worked for more
single crochet. Therefore, all together it
would be five single crochet. And I work as slip stitch. And then I work another chain. The beginning of each row, we should work change as the
amount and as the length of the stitches that we're
going to work in that row. E.g. if it was a single
crochet, one chain, if it was a half double
crochet two chain and it was, if it was a double crochet, three chains would be
created in the beginning of our inside of each stitch, I work to single crochet. This way, the number of our stitches would
actually get doubled. And again, we work as slippers stage
at the end of the row. Okay, So then after
we've got our ten single crochet and
we're going to work it for three rows with
our brown color. In these three rows, you shouldn't have
any increasing or decreasing of the stitches. And inside of each stage you should work one single crochet. I start with my yellow color, then new row still working
to single crochet. And then again,
almost for four rows. I'm going to continue working with these
almost nine stitches. The same way, no
increasing and decreasing. So just this way
you should create two horns or tentacles for
the top of your drafts head. Alright, now here we want to
work on our giraffes ears. First, create a magic ring. Inside of our magic ring, we should work six
single crochet. First, a chain which actually
goes by single crochet. And then after dad, five more single crochet
altogether, six. After I've done that, I stretched my yarn and
then I work as slip stitch. Over here, I work at
chain and single crochet. And then inside of
our next stage, we work to single crochet. I worked in next two stitches, simply means that inside
of each one of them, I work one single crochet. But then again, I work to
single crochet in one stitch. And then again for the next two, we will work simply. Then we work as slip stitch. Okay. I work at chain. And in this row, I work simply for
all the stitches. I do not have any increasing
as stitches in this row. Then I work as slippers stitch. Then for the fourth row, I work at chain. I work a single crochet. And then in the next one, I were to single crochet. Then again, you should actually work three stitches simply. It means that in
each one of them, you should only work
one single crochet. Then inside of the
fourth is sich, you should work to
single crochet. Again, three, single crochet
would be worked simply. And inside of the last stitch, I work to single crochet. And then I work as
slippers stitch. As you can see, this is my giraffes
ear and it got bigger. And as you can see, it's actually the stitches were increased on both coroners
and it actually got wider. Now, I'm going to continue
these stitches and work on them for almost four
rows without any increasing. And I'm going to work them
simply for four rows. Then in the ninth
row of our ear, we have a decreasing rho. I work a single crochet
that I worked at the second and the third
stitches together. And I continue the same way
till the end of the row. So we work one single crochet, and then we work the second and the third single
crochet together. This way we have
a decreasing rho.
5. 4. Crochet Giraffe head: Now for our giraffe's head, I'm going to start
with my brown color. Again. I work a magic ring. I create a magic
ring inside of it. I worked six single crochet. And then I work a slip stitch after tightening the
ring in the second row. Inside of each one of the stitches of my
previous and first row, I should work to single crochet. So we actually have increasing, the stitches are six
stitches would be doubled and would be 12 is stitches at
the end of this row. Again, I work as
slip stitch at last, and then in the third
row I work at chain and then one single crochet
inside of the next stitch. And in the next stitch I
work to single crochet. It means that every
other stitch, I actually add an increase, one single crochet and one
stage to the whole work. I continue the same way
till the end of the row. Now in the fourth row, each one of the two
first two stitches will have one single crochet
worked inside of them. And in the third is stitch. I work to single crochet. And then I'll continue the same way until
the end of this row. Fifth row, we work a single crochet in the
first three stitches. And then in the fourth stitch, I work to single crochet. Again. Inside of the
next three stitches, I work only one single
crochet in each one of them. And on the fourth stitch, you will have an
increasing usage with me, which means that
two single crochets inside one stitch then
continue like that till the end of the row and the
sixth row single crochet would be worked
inside of each one of the four first stitches. And inside of the fifth stitch, I work to single crochet means that I have
one increasing. Again. For single crochet will be worked
into fifth stitch. I'll have to single crochet. I'll continue this till the
end of this SRA as well. Then for the seventh, eighth, ninth, and 10th rows, it means for four rows, you should continue
without any increasing. Until the sixth row we
had increasing citrus. And then after that, we should work for rows simply
without any increasing. And we would have 36 is
stitches at the end as well. Then we start the new row
with our yellow color. We work five single crochet. And then inside of
this sixth stitch, I work two single crochets
means that again we have an increasing in this row
until the end of the row, we work single crochet
on five is stitches. And then in the sixth stitch
we work to single crochet. Alright, after the first
row that you've worked with your yellow color and you
had increasing of stitches, you should work
three rows, simply, in these three rows, we don't have any
increasing is stitches. Now we are in the 19th row of our faces work or better say, our heads work in this row. First, we should actually
work six single crochet, and then the seventh and eighth stitch will be worked
together from this row on, our decreasing stitches
will actually start. So as you can see, I am working six
single crochet simply. And then I worked
the seventh and eighth stitch together as one. I'll continue this till the
end of this row as well. Then the next two rows, it means the 20th and 21st
row will be worked simply. We won't have any
decreasing or increasing.
6. 5. Completing the giraffe's head: Okay. I've done my two rows of work simply and now
we are in the next row. In the first five is stitches. We work five single
crochet, one in each. And then after that, again we have a
decreasing stitch. It means that I work the
sixth and the seventh is stitches together will continue like this till the
end of the row. So the first five is stitches
will be worked simply. And then the sixth
and the seventh is stitches will be
worked together. And then the next row
would be worked simply without any decreasing
inside of each stitch, I work one single
crochet and an extra. Okay, I've also
finished my simple row. And then in the next row, as you can see, I worked for single crochet, simply du fifth and the sixth is stitches will
be work together as one. So again, I repeat, I worked for single
crochet simply, and then I worked
a fifth and a six, a stitches together as one. So continue like that
until the end of the row. And then again, the
next row will be worked simply inside
of each stitch. You should work only
one single crochet. Okay, Now, before you
continue from here on, you should make
sure that you feel inside of your heads with your fibers and then you'll be able to do your
working better. So once you have
this wide opening, you should place your fibers
inside of your doll's head. Okay, now instead, in
the last row inside of the first three stitches, inside each one of them, we work one single crochet. And then the fourth and a fifth, a stitches will be
worked together. We'll continue the same way
till the end of the row. The next row, I work two
single crochets simply. And then I worked a third. And the fourth is
stitches together. And then I'll continue like that until the end of the row. Again. In the next row, I work only one single crochet, and then I worked the second and the third is stitch together. Well in this row, if you see that
inside of your head, you still have some empty places and you can feel it more. In this row. You should completely
fill inside of your head and you should not leave any
parts of your head empty. Then in our last row we work all of our
stitches two by two. It means that I work the first and the second
stitch together. The third and fourth
is stitched together. So I work all the two stitches next to each other together.
7. 6. Crochet of giraffe polka-dot: Okay, now, giraffes body, we can see some polka dots. So they look like brown spots. And we want to show them
on our work as well. So we create a magic ring. Then inside of our magic ring, we work six or eight
single crochet. Well, if you want these
spots to be smaller, we work six single crochet
inside of our ring. And if you want to, you want them to be bigger. You work eight single crochet
inside of your magic ring. Right now, I work six single crochet inside
of my magic ring. And then I work a slip stitch
after closing up my ring. Now I want this ring and this circle to get
bigger a little. So in the next row, I work as single crochet. And in the next stage I
work to single crochet. Again, one single crochet, and then the next stage to
single crochet will be worked. So just like that, you'll make your
circle a bit bigger. Then at last, I work
as slip stitch again. Now you can create and work as many of these spots
as you want, e.g. 5610, how many ever you want, and then you can actually
work them in different sizes and place them on
your dolls body. If I continue this
for one more row, the size of this
spot will be bigger. So you should work several one of them's
with different sizes.
8. 7. Attaching the body parts of the giraffe together: Okay, now after we've done all the parts of
our giraffes body, now it's time to attach these body parts to each
other and to the body. Okay. We've got two arms, two tentacles and
horns, two ears. That the arms
should be attached. Over here on the
side of the body. It means this area. We should put the
horns over here like this at the top of the head. And the ears would actually
go on this side of the head. You should actually sue all
the body parts on your body, very strict and rigid. Now, first we want
to sue the arms, the size of the body. As you can see, I've
put the edges of my work together
and on each other. And you should place the arm right next to the
side of the body. And just be careful that
both arms should be sued on the same row and with the same yarn color that
you've used for your giraffe. The two horns would go
over here at the top of the head and you
should sue them here. And as I said before, the ears would go
next to the horns and tentacles and on the
side of the head. So first, you should follow the ears from the
middle like this, and then you should
sue this area and then you can apply it on
the side of the head. Before we attach a doll's
head into its body, we should place this area, the last row that we had
for the neck on each other should put the edge on
each other and we should. So it's two. So as you can see, after r, So the edges of the neck, and I've put it together, I can place the
head on the neck. We can do this either with a heat glue or we
can sue it as well. Just remember, put the head
on the neck in a way that the brown part and the
bottom part of the face, who's actually going
to face downward, a little, should look like this. So late are the eyes and the
ears would be seen better. So you can do you're
suing on the second or on the third row of the start
of your yellow color. You can even try this
several times so you see which row is better
for you for suing. And you say, I'll turn it so you can see the
back of the head clearly, I will put the neck
over here on the second or the third row of
my yellow color. Now you can see I've done my ceiling and I've
attached ahead to the neck now because
I want the head to be completely fixed on the body. And we can see the face. You should glue this
area completely down. You should fix some
on each other. So the head would be
totally facing down. So we've attached the body
parts to our giraffe. We also attach these brown spots that we've already worked. We've attached them
with the heat glue. Or you can even use
your brown thread or brown yarn to do some stitches
and SUID to the body. Now, just as an example, I want to show you
how you can sue your ear to the head and the rest of the body
parts are actually going to be attached to
the body or to the head, the exact same way. So I'm just going to do
one as an example for you. Okay? As I said before, before you want to attach
the ear to the head, you should fold it in the
middle so it will get a better shape and sue it
with the yellow color, with the same color as
reviews for our giraffe. We do are suing, do it several times. So it would be firm totally. And it would look like this. Now, we should attach to ear right next to these
horns or tentacles. So it would be
attached like this, which I'm going to do
for you right now. I've considered this area. If you want to consider distance between the ears and the horns, almost half a
centimeter is okay. Then you should pull your yarn. So it would be tight enough for attaching the body parts to the body or two ahead,
as you can see. I've passed my needle
through the body once. And the next one, we'll go through the ear itself. So both parts would actually
be attached to each other. See, I'll do the same thing for this lower part of the ear. Slipped. And you should
do it several times. So your ear will be attached
to your head firmly. When you work the body
parts separately, you should actually
attach them to your dual, very strong and firm. So when your kids and when the children
are playing with them, they will not come off easily
and they won't be loose. Even. They can put them in their mouth and nothing
will happen to them. So I recommend to
you that you use your needle and
sue it instead of using the heat glue that
will deem more firm. Now, you can also do something
that the ear of our LDL, I should be Elizabeth,
tilted downwards. So after we've attached our
ear to our LDL completely, we can consider
half a centimeter down and then attach it to the head again. You should actually tilt the ear downward toward
the head a little. And then due to suing
on the head as well, do it several times. So it would be firm and strong. And ear would be tilted downward a little
toward the head. So this way, our LDL is
complete. For the eyes. I've used to lack beats. And you should apply
this over here. Over the brown area. You can consider
the first row above the brown area and attach your eyes to the face with a heat glue with a distance
of three or four stitches. By the way, if you're
satisfied with this tutorial, you should definitely read us. This would help us
in providing and improving our courses
and better tutorials.
