All right, this is looking very nice. So now here what's going to happen is we
0:06
will crochet together with the arms. You see this part it's facing the backside
0:11
and this you see this opening it's from the back side and this one is the front
0:17
side of the toy. What I want to show you here is you can follow my pattern of
0:22
course but depending on how is your stitch if you made some mistake or not
0:27
your arms can be a little bit different because of your starting position. So
0:32
here is what I want you to do. Find the middle stitch, the central stitch of the
0:36
front of the toy and then you count five stitches here with this one is the
0:42
central and this will be the mark. Okay, so it's five central stitches here. So
0:50
here is the first one and you need three stitches here because you have three
0:54
stitches from the arm, right? And so here's where you will start. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 here is hidden here
1:02
So 5 stitches previously, I'm gonna work 5 single crochet and then I will crochet the arms and then
1:09
I'll work 5 single crochet again and then crochet the arm together, okay? I just want to tell you that
1:15
you should have 5 single crochet between one stitch to another. This is very important because
1:21
if your starting stitches is in a different position than mine, you see where it's mine now
1:27
the arm will be a little bit in a different place. So just pay attention on this. Find the
1:33
five central stitches and then you see here, this is the central one. One, two, central, three, four
1:40
five. Okay, one, two, three, this is where it should be the arm. All right, great. I hope it's clear
1:48
enough. So this is the back part. One, two, one, two, three. Three stitches here. So
1:56
this part is facing the back side of the toy and we'll crochet together. So one
2:01
stitch from the arm and one stitch here from the toy. All right? So here, grab one
2:11
stitch here from the arm, now the second stitch, that's super good, now the third
2:26
stitch. I will go here all of this round very slow, so I'm making sure that you
2:32
understand if you need to change the position of the arms here. Okay, so three
2:37
stitches from the arm right now we'll work five single crochet here because you
2:42
should have five stitches between one arm to another okay three four and five
2:55
all right now we'll crochet the other arm okay so let's take this other arm
3:02
here. This is the back side, so the front side is here. Let's take one stitch from
3:10
the arm and one stitch from the body. Super good! So one stitch is done, second
3:23
stitch here. Great. And the third stitch here. Super good. Now we have remaining two
3:37
stitches right here. Work these two stitches and that's it. You're done with
3:43
this round. I hope it was clear enough. If not, just ask me in the comments below
3:50
Okay, super good. Now let's work our round number 17. Alright, for round number 17
4:00
here we will work again a decrease, alright? So here you work one single
4:05
crochet and one decrease. Very simple, very easy, just go slow and make your
4:13
repetitions, alright? Here is my first decrease, repeat all the way around and I
4:18
will catch you up for the next round. Super good! Now for round 18 I'm here on
4:25
my last decrease. You see I stop here my decrease and I change the color again. So
4:32
now we work with the beige color or the skin color tone that you choose to work
4:37
with. For round number 18 you will work again on the back loop and you will make
4:41
slip stitch. So here you already know you make all the way around his neck
4:48
back loop slip stitch okay here one more back loop okay you know how it done here
5:03
I will catch you up for continuing this head. Okay, this is super good
5:12
Now let me just cut this thread. We don't need the blue color anymore
5:20
I'm very smart here now, we'll work just a simple knot. Okay, super good
5:31
And now we'll add a little bit of stuffing material before continuing
5:36
It's very important here for you to add stuffing material before continuing
5:39
otherwise it gets very hard for you to add stuffing material once you are done with the head
5:47
Okay? So let's just stop here a little bit. And now we will work a bit of the detail here of his shirt
5:57
So you grab your color, your light blue color or any contrast color that you're working
6:03
and let's make here some stripes, okay? We'll make some lines here
6:09
Very simple and very easy, just here. Remember to tie a knot in the beginning of the yarn, so you secure the yarn to make sure
6:17
that this will not continue, that you will pull this yarn here and it will just come off. Okay
6:25
So here we'll just work up a couple of stripes here to make a very nice detail and this
6:33
shirt of his will look a bit more from his time which is very nice. I like very much how the arms
6:41
it's looking like. I hope you like this detail also. Okay, so here you should
6:47
introduce your sewing needle between the colors, okay, between the blue and the
6:52
skin color, okay, that you are working. So here, super good and now that's it. You'll
6:59
just continue making here those lines. So you make five or six, I think six we will
7:07
make here. Let's see, I'm just leaving one stitch here from the down part, distance
7:13
from one line to another. Okay
7:22
Okay, now this is super good, bring your yarn up again and let's cut this tail, you make
7:41
a simple knot here also so this won't unravel, okay. Alright, just tight, simple knot here and hide this remaining tail inside of the toy
7:55
Super good! Okay, now let's move on and continue working with the head. Oops
8:04
Now here with the head we'll start working with increases. So here you will work only in the remaining front loop
8:15
okay so this is where you're going to work, only in the front loop and you will make all increases
8:23
so you have 12 stitches in the head so you will make 12 increases, on each front loop here you
8:29
will make two single crochet okay so at the end of this round number 19 you should have 24 single
8:38
crochet and I always suggest you, I forgot to say and up to here, count how many stitches you have
8:45
in every round. This is very important, so you make sure that you are right on track. Sometimes
8:50
especially when we are in the beginning of our amigurumi beautiful journey, we can eat up some
8:57
stitches, okay? This is how it should be looking like once you're done. You see, these are the
9:03
back loops lip stitch. These rounds will be facing inside of the toy and will make a very nice sharp
9:11
edge here between the neck and the head. Now for the rounds number 20 you will work one single crochet
9:18
in one increase. You will repeat this for 12 times. So here we are working, we are increasing a lot of
9:25
stitches and maybe the stitches can be a little bit one above each other so you just pay attention
9:32
See the stitches, alright? Go slowly and make sure that you are grabbing all of the stitches. Okay
9:41
The stitch can overlap a little bit. You see here, one, one increase, one, one increase
9:47
Repeat this all the way around. Good! This is how it should be looking like your head right now Alright So already we achieved here the results that we want and now we start increasing just 6 single crochet per round Okay So
10:03
now here you work 5 single crochet, 1 increase, and you repeat just 6 times. And here again
10:11
the stitches can be overlapping a little bit, because it's a lot of stitches in a small
10:17
space. So make sure to count and not to eat up some stitches. Count how many
10:23
stitches you have at the end of every round. It's very important. So here is one
10:31
increase and repeat all the way around. That's super nice. We have this. I add now
10:37
pins here just to hold his arm so it's not flying around his arms while I'm
10:43
crocheting. It stays on its place. Okay, for round number 22 you will work six single crochet
10:50
one increase, repeat six times and you should have a total of 48 stitches here, okay? Once again
10:58
I will tell you watch out for the stitches if they are overlapping one on top of each other
11:04
because maybe it can be a little bit harder for you to see the stitches there. And so count how
11:10
many stitches you have at the end of every round. I'm sorry if I'm too repetitive, but it's just important
11:17
Okay, so repeat all the way until the end. And this is how it should be looking like, very nice
11:23
we already arrived in the size of the head we want, and now you will work only single crocheted, okay
11:30
So for round 23 to 29, it will be the height here of our head, the size of the head
11:36
you will work 48 single crochet. So you can stop here the video and continue
11:41
working your single crochets and once you're done, once you arrive in your
11:45
last round, round number 29, I will come back here. Ta-da! This is how it should be looking like. Look, super cute! Very nice! We're
11:57
almost done with this from you. Now, you see, I just want to show you here. This
12:02
one here is the last stitch okay of the increases so you have rounds here 23 24
12:09
25 26 27 28 29 all right I just wanted to show you where were the rounds and
12:18
how to cut them in case you don't know it okay so now for round number 30 you
12:23
will work 6 single crochet 1 decrease repeat 6 times and you should have a
12:29
total of 48 stitches here at the end of this round. Alright, so now we will start
12:34
again working the the creases. Okay, so we work with invisible decrease, which is
12:41
where you grab just the front loop of the stitch, you will see here, front loop
12:47
front loop, and finish your single crochet. And here what I want to tell you
12:53
is if you don't know how to make the invisible decrease, check the link in the description below because there is a complete YouTube tutorial. Okay so here is
13:01
the invisible decrease. Super good. Now let's work round number 31. You will work
13:07
five single crochet, one decrease, repeat six times and you should have a total of
13:12
36 stitches here at the end of this round. So now here I'm working third, four
13:19
4 and 5. Now I'll work the first decrease here with you. So here it's my first repetition, okay
13:31
Front loop and single crochet. Super good. Repeat all the way until the end and this is how it
13:38
should be looking like. Now let's move on for round number 32. You'll work 4 single crochet
13:44
one decrease, repeat six times and you should have a total of 30 stitches here at the end of this round
13:50
Super good! So we are decreasing six stitches in each of these rounds, all right
13:59
Here it's my first repetition. Super good! Front loop, single crochet. Very nice here, repeat all the way around. And now let's move on for round number 33
14:12
you will work here 3 sc, 1 decrease, repeat 6 times and you should have a total of 24
14:19
stitches here at the end of this round, alright? We are almost done with Romeo body
14:28
He is looking so cute, I hope you like him. Okay, now moving on for round number 34, you will work
14:36
2 sc, 1 decrease, repeat 6 times and you should have a total of 18
14:41
stitches at the end of this round and we'll have just one more round to go
14:47
Okay so here it my first decrease Repeat all the way until the end and I will catch you up here good this is how it should be looking like now we add a little bit of stuffing material here so here is up to you I
15:05
like to add a lot of stuffing materials because I like my toys very firm but this is optional you
15:11
can add as much as you want super good now let's move on for our final round of the toy of the head
15:19
right, because we have so a couple of details here, you'll work one single
15:24
crochet, one decrease, repeat six times and you should have a total of 12
15:28
stitches at the end of the round and here is where we will stop our toy, okay
15:34
So work your repetitions here and I will catch you up so we can fasten this off
15:40
Very nice! So here you cut the yarn with a little bit of tail remaining, okay
15:49
Let's pull this yarn here and add this thread in the sewing needle or a tapestry needle
15:55
any needle you have at home, it's fine. Now you work here in the front loop
16:00
So you just grab the front loop of every stitch here. All right
16:06
Pay attention here for you not to grab the front loop, like for you not to insert your
16:11
needle in the middle of the the plies here because this can make a bit of
16:18
difficulty once you need to pull this tight to close the head. So just the front
16:24
loop. Okay? Super good! Once you grab everything you pull it very tight, you see
16:31
And this will close your toy. You can organize here a little bit and now I will
16:38
double secure the finishing of the toy the same way that I do when I'm starting the toys, okay
16:44
on the first round here. And then you just hide this remaining tail inside of this toy. All right
16:52
this is good for me. And we have the body, look at this cutie. All right, now let's start working his
16:58
hair. So again we will start here with the magic ring and we'll work six single crochet inside the
17:06
magic ring. So again, there's repetitions, magic ring and single crochet. You know, we
17:14
use a lot of magic rings here in amigurumis, right? If you have problems with magic ring
17:22
leave me a comment down here in the bottom of this video. Because then I can give you
17:30
a couple of options, but I must tell you, magic ring is the most neat, nice and professional
17:35
way to start your toys. Okay, so now for your second round here you work with six
17:41
increases and you should have a total of 12 stitches here at the end of this
17:45
round. Okay, so make here one increase and just remembering when it's one
17:50
increase it means you will crochet two single crochet inside one stitch. Okay
17:58
then here we'll move a little bit faster because you already know this. So we've
18:04
done it a couple of times for this pattern already, right? Super good! So now
18:11
let's just double secure this yarn as we always do in the beginning of the toys
18:19
So here you see the first round of your detail you just double secure this thread
18:27
inside. Super good. Okay, now I'll add here my stitch marker and let's move on for round number
18:36
three. You will work one single crochet, one increase, repeat six times and you should have
18:40
a total of 18 stitches at the end of this round. Super good, this is my first increase. So you see
18:51
here one, one increase. One single crochet, one increase. Okay, repeat all the way. And now moving
18:59
on for round number four, you will work two single crochet, one increase, repeat six times, and you
19:05
should have a total of 24 stitches here. So one and two, and now my increase. Okay, so let's count
19:16
here, one, two single crochet, one increase here. Alright, repeat all the way until the end
19:21
And this is how it should be looking like. Now, moving on for round number five, three single
19:28
crochet, one increase, repeat six times, and you should have a total of 30 stitches here at the
19:34
end of this round. So here you get it, right? We are increasing six stitches in every round, okay
19:41
Alright, so let's count this here. 1, 2, 3, 1 increase here
19:51
Repeat all the way until the end
