| Instructions |
| 1. Bottom Body Section:
With 2 strands of white yarn, work on every peg of green loom, for approximately 10-12 inches.
|
| 2. When you
have reached the desired length, cut your yarn about 15" away from the
last peg and put your yarn needle on the strands of thread. Go around
the loom picking up the yarn off each peg (starting with the first peg)
until you have all the yarn off the pegs. |
| 3. Draw up the
yarn to leave an opening approximately 1-1"½" put the needle through
the opening and slide the opening over the handle of the plunger. Pull
the yarn snug. Whipstitch around in the loops surrounding the plunger
handle. (Tacky Glue can be used here also, for extra durability-put the
glue where the yarn and plunger handle meet on the inside of the
project). |
| 4. Stuff the
bottom body section with polyfil to the desired fullness. Whipstitch
the top closed around the plunger handle. (Apply more glue here if
desired). |
| 5. Middle Body Section:
Repeat directions for "Bottom Body Section'? this time using the red loom and working approximately 9-11 inches.
|
| 6. Top Body
Section
Repeat directions for "Bottom Body Section'? this time using the blue
loom and working approximately 11-13". When you whipstitch the top of
this section closed it will not be around the plunger handle. You will
draw it up tight and secure your stitches |
| 7. This
section looks a little abnormally long, but remember "½ of this section
is covered by the hat, so you want it to be longer. You will sew
(and/or glue) the face on after the hat is on. |
| 8. Hat:
Using the red loom, make a hat with brim and ball. To make the brim,
work every peg with 2 strands of yarn for approximately 12-14 rows; pull
the first stitch up on the pegs; knit off; continue working until your
hat measures about 7" or so. |
| 9. When you
reach 7" , cut the yarn about 15" away from the last peg and put your
yarn needle on the threads and pick up the loops from around the pegs.
Pulling tightly, take your needle through to the center of the hat.
Whipstitch a couple of stitches to secure the hat. Make a pom-pom to
put on top of the hat using a pom-pom maker. |
| 10. Scarf:
Using any loom work the panel stitch for 5 pegs with 2 strands of the
same yarn used for the hat. (When doing the panel stitch, the end pegs
only get knitted off every other row.)
The scarf is approx. 24-25" long (before fringe) |
| 11. Bind off;
following directions in the Knifty Knitter Slim Jim. Add fringe to the
bottom of the scarf by cutting pieces of the yarn approximately 6" and
pull 2 strands (folded in half) through the bottom of the scarf every
"½'? or so, using a crochet hook. Pull the ends of the fringe through
the loop made by the crochet hook. Snug down and trim the fringe if
needed. ENJOY!! |
