stuffing
1 crochet hook 6,0 mm and 5,0 mm (halter and blancket)
1 tapestry needle (nose, mouth, eyes)
1 tapestry needle for weaving in ends
1 stitch marker

GAUGE
Single crochet (tightly crocheted):
10 st and 10 rounds = 10 x 10 cm
If your gauge differs from the given gauge, use a hook of a larger or smaller size accordingly.
NOTE: Animals should be tightly crocheted so they can be properly stuffed and shaped, and so that there are no holes
through which the stuffing can escape.

THE BASICS
Stitches: slip stitches, chain, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet, increases and decreases

Starting off:
When using a thick chenille yarn such as Luxury Velvet, it is not possible to start with a magic ring as the yarn cannot
be drawn together. That’s why we start with 2 ch and work the next stitches in the 2nd ch from the hook.
Spiral rounds:
At the end of a rnd do not close with a sl st. The 1st st of the new rnd is worked in the 1st st of the previous rnd. This
creates a spiral shape.
For a better overview, mark the 1st st of every rnd with a stitch marker.
Increasing 1 st: Work 2 st in the same insertion point.
Decreasing 1 st: Work 2 st together.

INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:

• Stuff before joining the pieces together. Do this gradually with a small amount of stuffing and shape the animal as you go.
• It is difficult to separate the work later on. If you do need to however, do it very slowly and do not pull to hard since the yarn could break.
• Sew the individual pieces on with a different yarn such as Catania or Bravo in a similar color as Luxury Velvet is too thick for this.

Body
Work the body from the top to the bottom:
Start with Bunny with 24 ch:
Rnd 1: Work 22 sc in the 2nd ch from hook, 3 sc in last st, continue working around the foundation chain, 21 sc, Increase 1 st = 48 sc
Rnd 2: Increase 1 st, 21 sc, increase 3 st, 21 sc, increase every 2nd st = 54 sc.
Rnd 3: Increase every 2nd st, 21 sc, increase every 2nd st, 2 sc, increase every 2nd st, 21 sc, increase every 2nd st, 2
sc = 62 sc.

2 sc = 71 sc.
Rnd 5: 2 sc, increase every 2nd st, 26 sc, increase every 2nd st, 5 sc, increase every 2nd st, 26 sc, increase every 2nd st,
3 sc = 78 sc.
Rnds 6–13: 8 rnds of the same number of st = 78 sc.
Rnd 14: 33 sc, (work 2 st together) 6 times, 33 sc = 72 sc.
Rnd 15: 31 sc, (work 2 st together) 5 times, 31 sc = 67 sc.
Rnd 16: 29 sc, (work 2 st together) 5 times, 28 sc = 62 sc.
The part with the decreases is the back of the alpaca. The beginning of the round should be at the middle of the chest.
There should be exactly 13 sc on either side of the middle of the chest, so count off a total of 26 sc and place a stitch
marker. (Picture 1).
This is the part of the neck you work across, the rest remains unworked. (Picture 2 and 3):
Rnd 17: 1 rnd in same number of st = 26 vs
Rnd 18: 12 sc, work 2 st together, 12 sc = 25 sc.
Rnd 19: 12 sc, work 2 st together, 11 sc = 24 sc.
Rnd 20: 1 rnd of the same number of st= 24 sc.

Secure the yarn with a marker, stuff the body and join the back together with other yarn, e.g. Catania/Grande. Keep
adding stuffing and bring the animal into shape. (Pictures 4–6)
