Amigurumi sheep keychain crochet description
Head
We start knitting with smooth threads.
Row 1: 4 ch, 2 sc in the second stitch from the hook, 1 sc, 3 sc in the last stitch. Then we knit on the other side of the chain: 1 sc, 1 sc in the first stitch of the chain (8)
Row 2: (inc) x 2 times, 1 sc, (inc) x 3 times, 1 sc, inc (14)
Row 3: (1 sc, inc) x 2 times, 1 sc, (1 sc, inc) x 3 times, 2 sc, inc (20)
Row 4: (3 sc, inc, 5 sc, inc) x 2 times (24)
Rows 5-7: 24 sc
Row 8: (2 sc, dec) x 6 times (18)
Row 9: 18 sc
Row 10: (2 sc, inc) x 6 times (24)
Cut the smooth yarn, tie the fluffy one.
Rows 11-12: 24 sc
Row 13: (2 sc, dec) x 6 times (18)
Row 14: (1 sc, dec) x 6 times (12)
Now you need to stuff the head with holofiber. Distribute the filler inside, knead the part, and shape a beautiful muzzle.
Row 15: decrease until the hole is closed
