Welcome everyone, thank you for joining me. I'm Kerri. Today I'll be showing you
how to crochet this girl with a basket. The materials I'll be using, are light pink
for the dress, white for the apron, I use brown for the hair and the basket. I've
got a creamy color for the girls hand. I use dark pink for the hat and green
for the leaves, and these three colours, or probably four colours for some flowers. I've
also got my sewing thread, sewing needle, a darning needle to weave in my ends. I
use a 1.25 millimeter crochet hook. I've got my scissors and
I've got some tiny yellow beads for the center of the flowers, so I need a really
tiny needle to be able to fit through the bead and I've got my thread on there.
I'll just use the one colored thread because it's so hard to thread the
needle. Now I'm going to start with the dress and the bodice. I start at the waist
and then work up and then for the skirt I join to the bottom of the chain and
work down. So I start with six chain. I
miss the first chain and work one single crochet in each of the other
chain.
For rows two to five I work one chain and turn and I work one single crochet
in each stitch to the end. So that's rows two to five.
For row six I work one chain, and turn, and I work a decrease single crochet
over the first two stitches, a single crochet in the next stitch, and then a
decrease single crochet over the last two stitches. For rows seven to nine I
work one chain and work one single crochet in each of the three stitches.
That's rows seven to nine one chain and one single crochet in each of the three
stitches.
And that's the bodice done. I'll work a row of neatening around the whole dress so
that will make it a bit thicker, I'll fasten off. Now for the skirt part I join
my cotton in the back of the first chain,
and I work two chain and work two half double crochet in the same stitch
as the chain,
and then I work one half double crochet into each stitch to the last one.
Into the last stitch I work three half double crochet.
Now rows two to seven are worked the same. You start with two chain and turn and work two
half double crochet in the same place as the chain, and then one half double
crochet into each stitch to the last stitch,
and into the last stitch you work two half double crochet. So I'll work rows three to
seven of two chain, two half double crochet in the same place as the chain, one half
double crochet into each stitch to the last, and then two half double crochet in
the last stitch, and then I'll be back. Now that's up to row seven. Rows eight to eleven are
worked the same. You start with two chain, and turn, and work one half double crochet in
the same place as the chain, and then work one half double crochet into each
stitch to the last stitch, and then we'll work two half double crochet in the last
stitch. So that's for rows eight to eleven. Two chain, one half double crochet in the
same place as the chain, one half double crochet into each stitch across to the
last, and two half double crochet in the last stitch. So I'll work those rows
eight to eleven and I'll be back. For row twelve we start with two chain, and turn, and
work one half double crochet in the same place as the chain, and then one half
double crochet into each stitch across.
For row thirteen we start with two chain, and work one joined half double crochet over
the first two stitches, and then work one half double crochet into each stitch to
the last two.
Into the last two stitches we work a joined half double crochet. For row fourteen we
start with two chain, and then we work two joined half double crochet over the
first four stitches. So one joined half double crochet into the first two
stitches and another into the next two stitches, and then we work one half
double crochet into each stitch to the last two, and then we're going to work a
joined half double crochet over the last two stitches.
For row fifteen we start with
two chain and we work a joined half double crochet over the first two
stitches, a half double crochet into each stitch to the last two,
and then we work a joined half double crochet over the last two. For row sixteen
we start with two chain and work a joined half double crochet over the first two
stitches, two half double crochet into each of the next two stitches,
one single crochet into each of the next two stitches, two half double crochet
into the following stitch, one half double crochet in the next stitch. Now we
work two double crochet into the next stitch. This is just giving it a bit of
shaping at the bottom. Now we work one treble in the following stitch, a double
crochet in the next stitch, a half double crochet in the following. Now we're going
to work joined half double crochets over the remaining stitches. So a joined half
double crochet into each of the next two and then another one into the
following two, and then another one over the last two.
So we've just got a bit of a wave along the bottom of our dress. Now we're going to
do a row of neatening. So we start with one chain and work single crochets all
around the dress. Most of the time I work one single crochet into each stitch but
to keep it flat I sometimes have to work two single crochet into a stitch. So I'll
work right around, I'll crochet in my ends, and then I'll come back and I'll
join in the one chain. So I'll do that and I'll be back. And that's the dress
done, I'll fasten off,
and I'll start on the sleeve now. I'm using my same pink and I start with a
magic loop, and work two chain, and four half double crochet into my circle.
I pull the circle tight, but I don't join. For row two I start with two
chain, and turn, and I work one half double crochet into each stitch.
So I have my two chain and my four half double crochet. For rows three to five I
work the same. Two chain and turn, and one half double crochet into each stitch.
For row six I work two chain and turn, and I work two half double crochet in the
same place as the chain. Then I work one half double crochet into the next stitch,
and then a joined half double crochet over the following two stitches. This is
giving the bend in the arm. For row seven I start with two chain, and work a joined half
double crochet over the first two stitches, a half double crochet into
the next, and two half double crochet into the following stitch. For row eight
I start with two chain, and work two half double crochet into the same place as the
chain, a half double crochet into the next stitch, and then a joined half double
crochet into the following stitch. And that's the sleeve done, I'll fasten off.
Now I've got a little hand just under the basket there. Next time I'm going to
put the hand on top of the basket, so I'll do that now. For the hand I start with
the magic loop, and work four chain, and work three treble cluster into my circle.
Pull the circle tight, and fasten off.
For the hat I've got my bright pink. I make a magic loop,
and I work two chain and four half double crochet into my circle.
I pull the circle tight, but I don't join. For row two I start with two chain, and work
a half double crochet in the same place as the chain, and two half double crochet
into each of the remaining stitches.
For row three I start with two chain, and work a half double crochet in the
same place as the chain, one half double crochet into each of the next two
stitches, two half double crochet into the following stitch, one half double
crochet into each of the next two stitches, and then two half double
crochet in the last stitch. For row four I start with two chain and work one half
double crochet in the same place as the chain, and then work one half double
crochet into each stitch across.
For row five I start with two chain and I work two half double crochet in the same
place as the chain, one half double crochet in the next stitch, and two half double
crochet in the following stitch. I repeat that across to the last stitch.
So one half double crochet in the next, two in the following across to the last
stitch.
Into the last stitch I work three half double crochet.
Now row six is worked the same as row five. We start with two chain and turn, and
work two half double crochet in the same place as the chain, and then work one
half double crochet into the next stitch, and two half double crochet into the
following stitch. We repeat that right across to the last stitch. So one half
double crochet in the next stitch, and two in the following stitch across to the
last stitch.
Into the last stitch we work three half double crochet. Now I'm going to neaten
around from where I've ended right round to the brim. So one single crochet in
each stitch around the top of the hat, so one chain and a single crochet in each
stitch around. Just find a suitable place to put your hook so it doesn't show up
too much.
So I'll continue doing my neatening row, I'll be crocheting in my end, and I'll
be back. And there's the hat done. If you want a
a row of chain you just work enough chain to fit across,
and that's enough.
That was fifteen chain, but it depends on your crocheting how many you'll need.
I've got a small hook and I'm a reasonably tight crocheter. So that's the
hat. I'll start on the apron now. I'm using my white, and I start with seven chain.
I miss the first two chain and I work one half double crochet into each of the
remaining chain.
For row two I start with two chain, and turn and, work three half double crochet in the
same place as the chain,
work one half double crochet into each stitch to the last stitch,
and into the last stitch I work three half double crochet.
Now rows three to five are worked the same. You start with two chain, and turn, and
work two half double crochet in the same places as the chain, and work one half
double crochet into each stitch to the last,
and you work two half double crochet in the last stitch. So we need two more rows
like that. Two chain, two half double crochet in the same place as the chain,
one half double crochet in each stitch to the last stitch, and then two half
double crochet in the last stitch. So I'll work two more rows like that and
I'll be back. For row six we start with two chain and turn, and work two half double
crochet in the same place as the chain, and then we work one half double crochet
into each stitch to the end.
For row seven we start with two chain and work one half double crochet in the same place as
the chain, and then one half double crochet into each stitch to the last
stitch.
Into the last stitch we work two half double crochet. For row eight we
start with two chain and work two half double crochet in the same place as
the chain, and then we work one half double crochet into each stitch across.
For row nine we start with two chain, and work one half double crochet in the same
place as the chain, and then we work one half double crochet into each stitch.
For row ten we work two chain, and work one half double crochet in the same
place, and then one half double crochet into each stitch across.
For row eleven we start with two chain and turn, and we work a joined half double
crochet over the first two stitches, one half double crochet into each stitch to
the last two,
and a joined half double crochet over the last two stitches.
And row twelve is worked the same as row eleven. Two chain and turn, a joined half
double crochet over the first two stitches, one half double crochet into
each stitch across,
and a joined half double crochet over the last two stitches. Now we're going to neaten
the edge. So we work one chain and a single crochet into each stitch around.
So I'll work this row and I'll be back. Now there's the main part of the apron
done. I'll work these two ties now. I've got my
white and I start with seven chain. I
work a slip stitch in the second chain from the hook, one single crochet in the
next stitch, and then two half double crochet in the following stitch,
one half double crochet in the next stitch, and then a single crochet in each
of the following two stitches.
For the second tie I work six chain,
a slip stitch in the second chain from the hook, I work one single crochet in
the next stitch, and two single crochet in the following stitch,
and then a single crochet in the next, and then I work a single crochet into
the top of the other tie part, and now I'm going to join it to the top of
the apron. I'm going to work a single crochet in each stitch along the top. I'm
just crocheting in the end there,
and then I fasten off.
Now if you'd like a bow on the back, using white, start with a magic loop, and
work three chain, two double crochet,
three chain, slip stitch into the circle, three chain, two double crochet,
three chain, slip stitch into the circle, and pull the circle as tight as you can.
To join it to the back, I'll leave a bit of an end, and I'll attach it by
sewing over the top, just like that, just a few times. I'll stitch over the top and
attach it to the back. So that's the bow part done. For the basket I've got my light
brown and I start with six chain. I
miss the first chain and work one single crochet in each chain to the end.
Now the next three rows are worked the same. We start with two chain, and work two half
double crochet in the same place as the chain, one half double crochet in each
stitch to the last stitch,
and two half double crochet into the last stitch.
Now two more rows the same. Two chain, two half double crochet in the same place as
the chain, one half double crochet into each stitch to the last stitch, and then
two half double crochet in the last stitch.
And one more row the same.
Now I work twenty-two chain
and then take it back and join to the first stitch on the other side. Now I'm
going to do a row of neatening. I work one single crochet into each chain of
the handle,
and then I work one single crochet around the sides and the bottom of the
basket and join with a slip stitch in the first stitch. So I'll do that
and I'll be back, and there's the basket finished. For the
hair I'll do plated hair again. I'm going to use the same light brown as the
basket. I make three lots of twenty-two chain,
and I fasten off. When I'm weaving in my ends, I'll weave in the one end but
leave the other end to tie them together. So I'll need two more of those. For the
leaves I've got a light green. I make a magic circle, and work three chain, and
two double crochet into the circle. I
pull the circle tight and fasten off.
I've been doing three leaves, but you could see whatever fits in and you could
just use felt or embroider in leaves if you'd prefer. For the flowers, I've got
six on this one but it just depends on how many will fit. I make a magic loop,
and work one chain and one single crochet into the circle, and then I work
two chain, and a single crochet into my circle. I repeat that four times. So two
chain and a single crochet,
and then at the end I work two chain, pull the circle tight,
and slip stitch into the first chain, and fasten off.
And that just gives you tiny little tight flowers. Now I work some more
flowers and leaves, some more chain for the hair, and I'll weave my ends and then
I'll be back to put it together. Now the first thing I do is stitch the apron on.
I'll stitch the ties down a bit as I stitch it on. So it would look a bit like
that. I try to make sure most of the white is hiding the pink.
I'll also tie my chain pieces together and plait those, and I'll stitch the white
part onto the hat. Now the next thing we do is attach the sleeve, the hand, and the
basket. The basket handle goes under the hand and then the hand goes under the
sleeve. So you need to work out where the sleeve goes at the top, and then the hand,
and the basket. You can see it better on this one. The sleeve ends there.
So I normally start here and stitch around the sleeve, and then I can work
out then where the basket handle will go, and pin the basket on, stitch the basket
on, stitch the hand on and then continue round the sleeve. So I'll do that and I'll
be back. Now the sleeve, the hand, and the basket are on. I've got my plait done
Next I'll just stitch it there just to the length that I'd like.
I'll stitch the bow, just in there, with the tail and I'll stitch the leaves on.
I've got three leaves. I put one near each corner and probably one down
towards there in the middle. Now the last thing I do is attach the hat to the top
of the dress, just like that. I do have my patterns on my website, the details are
in the description below, and it will have all the placement of everything. And
then I'll attach the flowers,
just like that somehow. I'll just see how they fit in when I stitch them
on. I'll be using the tiny little beads for the center. So I'll attach these
and I'll be back to show you the finished girl. And there's the finished girl.
