20130709-124433.jpg
Round 1 .: crochet 8 dc with black in a magic ring (possibly. 3lm, set into a ring, 8 sc in ring.)

Round 2 .: Change to light brown and crochet 2 sc in each st = 16 m

Round 3 .: x 1 sc, 2 sc in next st 8 twice = 24 m

Round 4 .: x 2 sc, 2 sc in next st 8 twice = 32 m

Round 5 .: x 3 sc, 2 sc in next st 8 twice = 40 m

Round 6 .: x 4 sc, 2 sc in next st 8 twice = 48 m

7.0mg .: Now you crochet with light brown and pink. 1 dc with light brown, skip 2 sts and crochet 7 dc in next st (= first ear) .Hopp over 2 m, 1 sc in next while you switch to pink, skip 2 sts and crochet 7 dc in next . Skip 2 sts, 1 dc and switch to light brown. Crochet an ear to, skip 2 sts, 1 dc in next. Cut off the light brown thread and change to pink before crocheting further eight arches in all.

Now you crochet border around the teddy bear. Follow the diagrams below from point I - III. Cut the thread and fasten!
20130709-125750.jpg
The heads can be varied so there will be other animals, for example. lion, cat, mouse, etc. You can also create tag bit smaller by cutting out the last half, or replacing st sc (then crochet 1 sc + 2lm + 1 sc in corner)!
20130710-103507.jpg

English version:
 
Round 1: With black makeover 8 sc in a magic circle. Change to brown yarn.

Round 2: 2 sc in each st = 16

Round 3: x 1 sc, 2 sc in same st x = 24

Round 4: x 2 sc, 2 sc in same st x = 32

Round 5: x 3 sc, 2 sc in same st x = 40

Round 6: x 4 sc, 2 sc in same st x = 48

Round 7 are made in two colors; bothering brown and pink. Start with 1 sc in brown, ship 2, 7 dc in next st (first ear). Ship 2, 1 sc in next - at the sametime, change two pink- ship 2, 7 dc in next st.

Ship 2, 1 sc in next st - change back to brown - ship 2, 7 dc in next st (second ear), ship 2, 1 sc in next st. 

Cut the brown yarn, and continue around in pink, making 7 dc bows = 8 in all. 1 sl st in the first sc.

For the remainder of the Teddy-square, follow the chart! ch = ch, sc = sc, hdc = hdc, dc = dc, dst = tr.

And if you wanna make other animals, just use your imagination, change the colors, and Suddenly you feb have a tiger-square

If you want a smaller square, just change dc two sc in the last round, making 1SC-2ch 1SC in the corner!

Free Spring Crochet Hat Pattern

free crochet cloche pattern Beverly in Vanna's Choice #cre8tioncrochet

Materials:

2 colors of Vanna’s Choice Yarn in your choice of colors
5.0mm hook
Embroidery needle for weaving in ends and securing flower to hat
Spring Blossom flower applique pattern

Special Stitches:

mc- magic circle/ring (click HERE for written and video tutorial)

Notes:

I recommend using my seamless method.  My seamless methods can be found here, follow the instructions for the second method in the hdc rows and when changing colors and use the first method for the sc rows.
You can do the hat, border and trim in any combination of colors that you like, the hat consists of 13 rows of hdc (totaling 45hdc at 5th row) followed by 5 rows of 45sc, one more row of 45hdc followed by one row of 90dc for brim and 1 row of 90sc for trim, brim is ended in one row of 90 sl st.  Color changes can be made anywhere.  I made one of the models using two colors for the border and one using only one color, along with using trim color on one and not on the other.

Gauge:

1st round= 1 ¼”
2nd round= 2 inches (each subsequent round = 1″)
Flat circle (at the end of round 5)= 5″
