Hello everyone, in today's tutorial we make baby Jesus
and the crib
with today's tutorial we complete the 3 fundamental characters of the crochet Nativity, which we did together this year
in fact, we started with the tutorials
to make the Virgin Mary
and then we did Saint Joseph
if you have not yet seen these tutorials,
find the link in the information box,
and in the upper right corner
I asked you what other characters
would you like to add to this Nativity
and you have suggested me many,
surely we can not do them all this year,
but certainly we do the ox and the donkey
but today we see how to make baby Jesus
we will work the head and this little blanket
and the crib, separately
because, I do not know how you do,
but in my crib, first you put the crib, and on the night of December 24, you add Jesus child
but stop the chatter, let's start the tutorial
for this tutorial we need:
the chosen yarn (for 4mm crochet), in different colors
a bit of cotton wool, needle and thread
a 2.5mm crochet hook, scissors and a woolen needle
for the head we start with a magic ring
round 1: 6sc
we pull the tail of yarn to close the ring
we work in a spiral, so I suggest you mark
the beginning of the round with a marker or a thread
round 2: (1sc 1inc)x3 (9)
round 3: 9sc
round 4: (1sc 1dec)x3 (6)
after the round, cut a long yarn
and extract the crochet
fill the head with a bit of cotton wool
help yourself with a thin object
insert the yarn into a wool needle
and we close the hole
inserting the needle only in the outer loop of the chains
from the outside, towards the center
we pull the yarn
and we fix the yarn as you see in the video
and the head is ready
we start the small blanket with a slip knot
ch 5
we weave around the chains
starting from the 2nd chain from the crochet
round 1: 3sc, 1d.inc. (3sc in the same stitch),
let's go back to work on the already woven chains,
turning around
in this chain we have woven 3sc
from the next chain we weave
2sc, 1inc (10)
in the 1st round we have 10 stitches
in the 2nd round we weave 11sc
working in a spiral, we count 11sc
in this way
we straighten up the work
we weave 3sc entering only the half chain in front, of the stitch
in this way the half loop behind, remains available
from here on, we begin to weave in rows
row 3-12: ch1, turn the work, 13sc
starting from the 1st sc, we weave 1sc at each stitch
when we have woven the 10 stitches of the 2nd round
the other 3sc we weave them,
in the half chain not used,
of the last 3sc of the previous round
so 11, 12 and 13
in this way the blanket has a double front layer
we weave in this way, up to the 12th row
row 3-12: ch1, turn the work, 13sc
when you work in rows, it may be useful
to put a marker in the first and last stitches of the row,
to identify them easily
so you will be sure to have 13 stitches in each row
when the 12 lines are woven
ch1 and cut a long yarn
and this is the result
we can fold the blanket a little, like this
fill with a little cotton wool
we fix the blanket with a pin
and we position the head
insert into a needle from wool, the tail of yarn of the end of the work
and we sew, creating the shape we want
we can, for example, fold the blanket in this way
with a few stitches, we sew the head to the blanket
and the edge of the blanket
for example, this way
when we have completed the seam,
we bring the yarn in a not very visible position,
we knot and hide
with needle and sewing thread, we embroider the eyes
follow the pictures, they explain better than words
we tie and hide
for the crib:
with the chosen color, we make a slip knot and ch9
starting from the 3rd chain from the crochet
and if you want, entering the back thread of the chains
we weave 7dc
when the 7sc are done
ch1 and cut
this will be the base of the crib
now we prepare many fringes like these
to make the straw, you can use a single color or 2, like me
for the straw I have chosen to use 2 different colors
to make fringes look at the pictures of the tutorial
like these we do others
we hook a series of fringes, all over the edge:
on the chains of dc
in the chains of the side
in the foundation chains
and on the other side
we put another 2 rows of fringes:
1 in the upper part of the dc,
and 1 in the lower part of the dc
let's see how
for each fringe we use 2 threads
even if you're using only one color of yarn
insert the crochet hook in one of the stitches
follow the video to understand how to hook the fringes
we pull well
in the same way we hook all the fringes
we put a fringe in every point of the border around,
as we did with this
and then we create a row of fringes entering the upper part of the dc
how I show you in the tutorial
in the same way we complete the whole row
in the lower part of the dc
let's repeat the same procedure
and so we continue, completing the round of the board,
using 2 wires for each fringe
and then the 2 central rows
a fringe in every stitch of every row
this is the result when we put all the fringes
in the rows in the middle
and lifting this series of fringes
below we can see the fringe circle, of the edge
when you have positioned all the fringes
with scissors
give the shape to the crib
the fringes will be too long and irregular
and with the scissors we give the shape
we want to the crib
the knot of the fringes sometimes tends to loosen
so I suggest you a trick
put a little transparent nail polish on all the knots
in this way the fringes will be blocked
and even baby Jesus is complete
for today the tutorial ends here
I really hope that you like this baby Jesus
and that you are doing the Nativity with me
