Hello ladies and gentlemen welcome back to another video. In this video I'm going to be sharing with you guys another free crochet pattern and for me it's been really fun making these for you guys just sharing all of these free patterns that I have so that you guys can learn how to crochet things on your own and really simple things and even if not many of you are falling along I still have faith because I know that
the pattern is growing so today in this video I'm going to be showing you how to make these cute little guys aren't they so cute so a couple weeks ago like a week ago I shared a written pattern on how to make these little guys
and you guys really seem to like it so in this video for those who didn't understand the stitches in the written pattern what does S-C mean single crochet D-E-C decrease I-N-C increase blah blah blah so in this video I'm really going to show you how to make all of the stitches like literally all of them and those stitches can literally help you to make anything
and just in this little pattern so let's dive into it. Okay so all that you'll be needing for the materials is whatever color of yarn that you want this is just the color that I'm going to be using for the cap in this video so it's going to be turquoise I think it's going to look pretty cute and white for the body
you can also get some extra black blue and pink pink yarn but we won't need very much that's why I didn't get out an entire scheme just like extra scrap yarn so you can sew all these extra details on a darning needle a hook and for this hook size
just try to make it somewhat appropriate with the size of yarn that you're using so I think this is pretty good I'm using a 4mm crochet hook you'll also be needing scissors and a stitch marker that's it a stitch marker all you really need is for so that you can count every stitch of your round or at least the first stitch of every round
I'll explain that to you guys later but you could also use things from a bobby pin or an earring or whatever just something that'll work like that and just so you guys know
if you guys do not have thick yarn like this it's not going to turn out as big because the size of the yarn also determines the size of your plushies so since I'm using pretty thick yarn if you're using thinner yarn like this it's going to turn out a lot smaller
please don't ignore the eyes on this thing this is when I was a beginner okay so yeah the size of your yarn depends the size of your yarn
okay the size of the yarn also determines the size of your shroomy there okay so let's get started so to start off you're going to want to grab your cap color and make six single crochet into the magic ring so how do you make a magic ring
okay so you're going to want to grab your two fingers of your non-dominant hand wrap it wrap the yarn around twice like this now you're going to want to grab your hook put it under the first strand of yarn grab the next one and pull it up like this and now what you could do is you could pinch the yarn take out your two fingers
and now is where you get to the part of how do you hold your yarn during crochet so what you're going to want to do is take your non-dominant hand for me it's my left put it over your middle finger and your ring finger and wrap it around your index finger twice so now with your middle finger and your thumb you're going to grab your project so that's how you will be holding the magic ring wait let me fix this up a bit
alright so that's how you hold the magic ring I mean hold your crochet projects guys so to finish off the magic ring all you're going to want to be doing is just grabbing the yarn with your hook and pulling it to the loop that you had so there is your complete magic ring so now we're going to be putting six single crochet into it so what you're going to want to do is take your hook put it into the loop I mean the circle pull up a loop
and pull through two so that is one single crochet so now we're going to be doing that five more times I'm just going to be here doing it for you guys for reference now you guys have learned your first stitch the single crochet pretty much I'd say that this is like the most important stitch you know because it's the most used one so we're going to be doing this a lot more in this pattern so I have one two three four five just one more stitch
so that is six single crochet just apropos just FYI a single crochet if you see it in a pattern it's acronym is SC so if you see SC in a pattern that means you're now meant to do a single crochet so what you're going to do now is grab this loose tail end and pull on it and that will make our circle smaller
so you don't have like a big hole in the beginning of the cap see how that's closed right there that's what this is right now this magic ring we're starting up here and it will be slowly working our way down
so once you have it closed quite tightly I think I'm going to do that bit more there so now what you have it closed now what you're going to do is make six increases so an increase is basically just two single crochets and one stitch so what you want to do is put your hook into the next stitch so one stitch is one V so I know that doesn't make sense at first
but if you look at the edge of your crochet project you'll see that they're like a bunch of these going down the side of it so that and that's one stitch so what you're going to be doing is going into the next V
see these right there you don't want to go under that and see I have a V under my hook see that so that is one V so now what you're going to do is make one single crochet and then go into that same stitch and make another single crochet so that was one increase so two single crochets and one stitch
and in a pattern an increase will be I and C that's its acronym so now you know the single crochet and the increase you guys so now we're going to be making five more increases around one five there we go now we have made six oh six increases into six stitches so I'm just going to type that up a bit
so now we're going to be doing is make one single crochet one stitch and one increase into the next stitch and then keep doing that all the way around so what you're going to be doing is make one single crochet into the next stitch this is going to be like a pattern this is why they call it a pattern so now you're going to want to take your stitch marker or your bobby pin or your earring or your scrap yarn and put it into that one stitch that you just made right here close it
so that is the first stitch of your new round this is round three that we're going to be doing so in the next stitch you're going to be making an increase that is two single crochet in one stitch I'm just going to follow you guys around for now and so the next stitch will be in a single crochet and the next one will be an increase and that's how we'll be doing it until you get right here to the last stitch
of your round until you get to your stitch marker so I'll see you then alright so we have now done one single crochet and one increase for the whole round of round three so now we have finished round three and we'll proceed with round four so round four will be very similar we'll have single crochets and increases in it
but what you'll be doing is starting with one single crochet doing one single crochet into the next stitch and then an increase so two single crochet and one increase so what that means is you'll be doing one single crochet into the first stitch once you're crocheting into the first stitch of your round until the next stitch we'll be doing another one
And then the next stitch, you'll be doing an increase.
So I've done two single crochets here, and then the third stitch will be one increase.
Alright?
So that's what we'll be doing for the entire round, so two single crochets and an increase.
I'll see you at the end of this round.
Alright, so we have now reached the end of round four.
Just to make sure, if you're on the right track or not, the last single crochet that
you've done before reaching the stitch marker should be an increase.
So that's sort of how to know if you're on the right track.
If you're not, well, it's fine.
Well, I'm saying that it's fine because that happens a lot with beginners, and your crochet
project obviously won't be perfect if you're like a beginner.
Yeah, I'm going to cut that cut what I just said out of the video.
So for the next round, you will be making, alright, now that you've reached the end of
round four, you will be making one single crochet in each stitch around for two rounds.
So just to explain what a round is, in case you guys didn't understand, okay, so you
can see that in the top, we have our magic ring, the circle that is right here.
And that is what we have done here.
So that's what we're doing right now.
So this magic circle is one round.
That counts as round one.
And see this next bump right here?
That's round two, this is round three, this is round four, five, six.
And so that's how it goes on all the way through the crochet project.
That's sort of how crochet works.
So we have now done round four.
So we have one, two, three, four bumps, or rounds.
And so for the next two of those rounds, we're going to be just doing single crochets in
each stitch around.
So just make single crochets, this is what I call repeat rounds, because sometimes in
your crochet projects, here's an example, you just have to keep doing single crochets
like for a long period of time, just keep doing single crochets.
And this is what elongates your project a little bit more.
So at this stage, when we're doing increase, we're just making the project bigger.
But in these two rounds of just single crocheting, we're just like elongating it.
So it's not like a Lego head, I guess.
So yeah, that's what we'll be doing for the next round.
Just for the next two rounds, excuse me, see you then.
And also, once you reach the end of one round, I've only done one round of single
crochets, but just so that you guys know.
All right, so I have now gotten to the end of round, what is it?
Round six, I'm sorry.
I've now gotten to the end of the two single crochet rounds.
It should be looking something like this.
Like half a circle.
This is like what should be looking like.
Oh, it looks like my shroom is going to be ending up a little bit smaller than these,
perhaps, probably because this yarn is a little bit thinner than what I used for this one.
But anyways, for the next round, take out your stitch marker.
And so for all of these rounds that we have been doing previously,
we have been going under both loops.
So for each stitch, there is a V, right?
But one V consists of here, two loops.
Let's see if I can have two loops.
I hope you can see that.
Those are two strands of yarn right there.
So that is one stitch.
But for most of the rounds, we've been going through both of those, and that was correct.
But for this round, all we'd be doing for the entire round is going through the front loops only.
So there are two loops here.
One is a front loop and one is the back loop.
So the back loop is the one that's furthest away from you, which would be this one.
And the front loop will be the one that is closest to you.
So this will be the front loop.
So we're only going to be working into these for the next round.
What we'll be doing in the next round, this round,
will be just three single crochet and one increase.
So I've now made one single crochet.
Let's go to the next front loop, make a single crochet, go into the next front loop,
make another single crochet.
So now we have made three single crochets in the new round,
and then we'll be making an increase into the front loop.
And that will be the pattern that we'll be following for the entire round.
So make another three single crochet, another increase,
and so on until we see each other until the end of the round.
Okay, so I have now reached the end of this round.
It should be looking something like this, like these stitches that we just did
because we were working on the front loops only.
These stitches sort of stick out a little bit, making it look like a little hat.
So this will be the last round we'll be doing in this color,
and then after that we'll be working to white.
So to start off, the next round we'll be working in both loops again.
So no longer front loop or back loop or front loop like we did in the last round.
We'll be working into both loops again, make a single crochet for the first stitch.
And so what we will be doing in the next round will be four single crochet and one increase.
So basically like the last round we did three single crochet increase,
and this one it'll be four single crochets and four stitches and then one increase.
So yeah, all right.
So we have now finished round eight.
Excuse me.
So now we have finished everything that we need to do for the cap.
The cap is now finished, aka this roomies little hat.
So you can see this one turned out a little bit bigger.
Mine turned out, if yours turned out a little bit smaller,
and it often gets a little bit bigger after you stuff the project.
Or it might just be smaller because your yarn is a little bit thinner.
So yeah, this is how it's turning out.
If it's turning out somewhat like this, you're on the right track.
So now what you're going to want to be doing is that you're now finished with this cap.
What you're going to be doing is just cutting it, roughly, let's say, I don't know,
half like three, two thirds of an inch.
I mean, sorry, three thirds of a foot perhaps, something like that.
Just just good enough to have it, yeah, just good enough to weave it in
and just tighten that.
You can take out your stitch marker now.
Well, don't take it out.
And so now what you want to be doing is grab your white yarn.
Let me just fix this up a bit.
All right, chop that out of the way.
What we'll be doing now is grab our white yarn, find the strand of this yarn,
and as you can see inside of this hat, when we were working inside the front loops only,
the back loops are just, they're just sitting there, as you can see.
All the other stitches, they look sort of normal, but you can see these stitches
sticking out in particular.
So what we're going to be doing is working into those.
So look at where your stitch marker is.
Go to the stitch that's right parallel to that.
This is the back loop of that front loop round that we were doing earlier.
So just put your hook under that, grab your white yarn,
and we'll also always be working from outside inside, not opposite.
Grab your white yarn, pull it through that loop.
So now we have that.
And you're going to want to make like grab these two yarn tails.
Oh, grab these two and make one chain or chain one, but with these two yarn ends.
It's like that.
That sort of creates a little knot.
So now what we're going to do is take out your hook and just tie a knot between
these two colors so that they don't go undone.
So just take these two whites and tie a little double knot or triple knot, whatever.
So now that we have tied a little double knot,
we're going to put our hook back into the loop.
And what we're going to be doing for the next,
and what we will be doing for the next two rounds is just make two single crochets
all around.
We have done this previously.
We're just going to be making two more repeat rounds,
just the exact same thing.
No increases, no other stitches, nothing of the sort.
We're just going to be doing one single crochet in each stitch for two rounds.
And also, you do not have to mark the first stitch of this round,
because it's kind of obvious which one is the first stitch.
It's a white one, so you don't have to do that quite yet.
But once you get to the end of this first round,
then you start on the second one, you're going to want to mark the first stitch.
I'm just going to do it now just for you guys.
Just put that in that first stitch right there, one that we did there.
So now we're ready for the next round.
See you then.
What's great about these little shroomy guys is that they sell so great at markets,
because what I've learned over the years that all the customers really want to do
is when they pass by your market, is buy the cheapest little thing and then move on.
They don't want to buy the biggest thing, whatever.
They might, sure, but this is the most of the people that I'm speaking for.
Unless they like your stuff and they buy something,
it's usually going to be the smallest one.
At least the majority of people.
And so that's why I realized that these little things, they are such great sellers.
And I don't just make them because they sell so well,
but also because they are so cute.
I mean, look at them.
Look at this face.
You can't resist that.
I mean, come on.
So yeah, there are just some things in life that aren't very functional,
and then don't serve you too much purpose,
except for making you smile every time you look at it.
So that's what these are for.
And I hope this tutorial is helpful for you guys
to reach that same joy in making these as I do.
So I have now reached the end of this first round,
and now I'm just going to be making this second round.
I just need to say that or comment that to you guys
of how much other people love them.
It's not just me, okay?
It's not just me.
So I'll see you at the end of this next round of single crochets
that we're meant to be doing.
So we have now reached the end of these two rounds.
As you can see, the whites are sort of coming in.
It's starting to come together.
So for the next round, first thing you'll be doing
is just do seven single crochet,
just do seven single crochet,
and I'll see you then and just stop there.
So put your stitch marker back in.
And then after seven single crochet,
let me do that.
Two, three, four, five, six, seven.
So now once you have done seven single crochet,
what you're going to be doing next is called a bobble stitch.
So in patterns, a bobble stitch is usually B-O, a bobble stitch,
or they'll just write the word bobble,
or some people do B-B-L as a bobble stitch.
So it sort of differs.
But what a bobble stitch is,
is basically these little arms, these little arms and legs.
These are all bobble stitches.
So that's what we're going to be doing now.
We'll be making his first little arm in this round.
And it's not very common in beginners
to know what a bobble stitch, how bobble stitch is.
So I'll walk you guys through that.
So what you're going to want to do is wrap your hook around the yarn.
Go into the next stitch.
Grab that yarn again.
Pull it out.
And now you should have three loops on your hook.
Pull through two of those loops.
Wrap your yarn around the hook again.
Go into that same stitch.
Pull up the yarn.
Pull through two loops on your hook.
Now you should have three again.
Yarn around your hook.
Go into that same stitch.
Pull up.
Pull through two.
And now you should have four.
And you should be doing that a couple more times
until you have six stitches on your hook.
So now I have five.
I'm going to yarn over again.
Go into that same stitch.
Pull up a loop.
And go through those two.
So now I have six loops on my hook.
One, two, three, four, five, six.
And now once you have six, you're going to take your yarn
and pull through all six of them.
Just like that.
And so now once you have all of those,
you're going to be going into the next stitch
and just make a single crochet.
And now what you're going to want to do
once you've done the single crochet
is just sort of like pop out that bobble stitch
with your finger because you want it to like stick out,
you know, let that stick out.
Just take your finger.
Just let that pop out.
All right.
So now once we have that,
I've just now made one single crochet into the next stitch.
So now we're going to be making seven more
to the next seven stitches.
So one, two.
All right.
So we have now made seven more single crochet.
Now what we're going to be doing
is making one more bobble stitch into the next stitch.
This will create his second little hand arm.
So I'm going to walk you guys through this one more time.
Wrap your hook around the yarn.
Go to the next stitch.
Pull up a loop.
You should have three loops on your hook.
Pull through two.
Your yarn again.
Go into that same stitch.
You're always going into the same stitch
during the bobble stitch.
Pull through two loops.
Do this again.
Repeat this.
Pull through two until you eventually
have six loops on your hook.
Keep going into that same stitch.
Pull through two and I have five loops in my hook.
Do that.
Pull through two again.
Did it pull through two?
And now you should have six loops on your hook.
And once you have six loops on your hook,
you guessed it.
You're going to pull through all six of them.
So there's one more bobble stitch.
Now what you're going to do is single crochet
into the next stitch.
Make that single crochet sort of pop out that arm a bit
so that it comes out and not in.
And there you have your two arms right there.
We have just finished those two bobble stitches
and we'll be doing the same thing
for the two little legs,
but that will come later.
So now just single crochet to the end of that round.
Just keep single crocheting.
I think it's so cute.
These little arms are so adorable.
Like a big face, big head, and little chubby arms.
I mean, come on.
You can't resist that.
Come on.
Okay.
So now once you have reached the end of that round,
what you're going to be doing is just single crochet
for two rounds again.
So just take out your stitch marker.
And for two rounds,
we're just going to be doing pure single crochet.
And I'll see you then.
All right.
So we have now reached the end of those two rounds,
of those two repeat rounds.
Oops, sorry.
My camera just shook there.
So now we'll be beginning with the next round.
And this round we'll be making these two little legs,
the last two bobble stitches,
and assuming that you guys already know
how to make them by now,
but I'll still be following you guys through it.
You're going to be making,
for the first couple single crochets,
you'll be making nine single crochets.
So I've now made one.
I'm going to make eight more.
Alrighty.
So we have now made nine single crochets.
What we're going to do is make our bobble stitch.
So wrap your hook around the yarn.
I'm just going to stop yapping.
I'm just going to let you guys watch,
because I've already explained it a couple of times.
I do not want to be repetitive in these videos,
you guys.
So just follow along.
So I have now made this one bobble stitch.
And now for the next five stitches,
we're just going to be single crocheting.
So single crochet five.
So there's one.
Don't forget to pop out your bobble stitch.
I'm going to make four more.
So in that stitch,
I'm going to be making one more bobble stitch.
You guys can just follow along.
All right.
So we have now made that next bobble stitch.
We're just going to,
now we're just going to single crochet
until the end of this round.
Always never forget to pop out those bobble stitches,
otherwise they're pretty much useless
to make them look like little arms and legs, you know.
I'm sorry, why am I talking like that?
Okay.
So I have now pretty much single crocheted
until the end.
Add in a little, aw.
I think it's looking so cute.
I love seeing them come together like that.
So now we only have two rounds left.
You guys, we're almost done with this,
except for like sewing everything on.
But crocheting wise,
we are almost done with these rounds.
Sowing on stuff is quite easy.
And I have made a full tutorial on how to sew on eyes
and a heart and all that.
But I'll give you guys like a little short tutorial
guide in this video also.
So don't worry.
Okay.
So for the next round,
what we're going to be doing is called a decrease stitch.
So in round, I mean in patterns,
they'll be DEC, a decrease.
That's the acronym for it.
And we're just going to be doing pure decreases
for the whole round.
So what a decrease is,
is you're going to take your hook,
go into the next stitch,
pull up a loop,
and then go into the next stitch,
not the same stitch,
pull up a loop.
So now you have three loops on your hook.
You're just going to pull through all three.
So that was a decrease right there.
And decrease stitches will turn two stitches
into one lowering the amount of stitches that you have.
And this will basically make this hole
smaller and smaller and smaller
so that we can close it up.
And we'll have this little bump.
And that'll be the end of it.
So we're just going to be doing that
for the entire round.
Let me show you guys one more time.
Go into the next stitch.
Two loops, by the way.
Pull up a loop.
Go into that next stitch.
Pull up a loop.
You'll have three.
And then pull through all three.
So now you'll just be doing that
for the entire round.
I'll see you at the end.
All right, so now once you have reached
the end of that round,
you're going to take out your hook
and come to my favorite part
of the whole process.
Stuffing it.
So yeah, now you're just going to be
stuffing it before the hole gets too closed.
You're just going to stuff that lightly.
You do not want to over stuff or under stuff
because like if you under stuff
and it's just meh,
it's not really put together.
But if you over stuff it,
nobody really likes like a hard plushy.
You want it to still be like to be
squishable and, you know,
squishy like this.
So yeah, just sort of lightly stuff it.
Just good enough, you know.
I think that will be good.
I think that's pretty good.
Look at that.
Oh my God.
You can see it come together.
That's why I love that.
This part of the process
because you can see everything like
poof up, you know, in real time.
Just sort of shove that in there.
If you do not have poly fiber,
what I'm using, you could also use
cotton or back when I didn't have
poly fiber, I used to just take
cotton pads and just rip it up
and then shove that in there.
Anything that you got just, you know,
just use that.
All right.
So there we have it's stuff.
I think I'm going to add just a tiny,
tiny, tiny, tiny little
little bit more.
And you're just going to want to
so like squish in random areas.
If you're shroomy and see which parts
feel like they don't have enough
and just sort of add to that area.
So that there's like there's
so that there is like a bunch of
stuffing up in this section
and there's like nothing over here.
Um, so yeah, that's that's
basically what you're doing.
You just stuff that just lightly.
There.
I think that's I think that's good.
What do you think guys?
I think it looks ridiculously good.
Okay.
So now you're going to put your
hook back into that loop.
And now for this round,
you're just going to be doing the
exact same thing as the last round.
Just decrease the whole way around
this and this will close up the
hole.
And if you want,
you could do some last minute
stuffing a little bit later.
But the reason why I stuffed now
is because it's going to get a lot
more difficult to stuff later on
because this will
I'm closing up the hole right now.
So it's good to have your stuffing
done by now.
So just keep doing them decreases.
All righty then pals,
ladies and gentlemen,
we have now done the last round
of this shroomy.
It is practically done,
but all we need to do now is just
cut the yarn or white yarn.
It should just be like a pretty good
length.
Just make it like about this long.
Cut that.
And you're not just going to want to
take out your hook,
you're going to pull it out like this.
There, like that pull a type.
Now what you're going to do
is take your darning needle.
You could take a plastic one
or like a metal one,
but I prefer to use my plastic one.
Can't go wrong with plastic.
Actually,
besides one,
I mean,
you can go wrong with plastic
when it's in the ocean,
but you know,
I just prefer it for these projects.
And what you're going to do
when you have this yarn
is you're just going to want to go
through each stitch
with your darning needle,
like that,
the whole way around.
So that's going to be like,
you're going to have six stitches left.
So you're going to go through
each stitch.
You're going to go through six stitches
like that,
from out to in,
just like that.
All right.
So now once I have done that,
I have done all six of my stitches.
You have gone through each stitch.
You're just going to take this yarn and pull.
So if your hole is big,
oh, you'll notice the hole just closed,
but pulling it tightly
will help this hole close.
So now there's nothing left.
Perfect.
Look at it.
It's turning out so cute, you guys.
It's basically the same right now.
We just have to add
embroidery to the face
and these little hearts
that are on the top of the cap.
So yeah.
So now once you have this loose yarn end,
we don't want that there.
You're just going to go
into random parts of the body.
You're just going to go in here,
come out there,
go into that same stitch,
come out over here,
and just keep doing that
so that the yarn is secure
and it won't come out randomly.
So you just put that here,
go into that same stitch.
Let's go over here.
Just sort of spread that around.
Once you're done,
just do that a couple of times.
Preferably like, I don't know,
three or four times.
And then just take your scissors,
cut it short.
Make sure not to hurt
your little beautiful shroomy.
I like to call them shroomies.
They're just pretty awesome.
That name.
And just sort of poke that back in there,
just to hide it.
There we go.
There we have it.
Now we just have to hide this right here,
as you can see.
So what you're going to do
where this yarn tail is,
you're going to take your hook again
and you're going to go
into the next stitch
that's right here.
Just grab this yarn tail,
pull that through like this.
Just pull, pull tightly.
And now you're going to want to,
oops, sorry.
Now you're going to want to go
to that same stitch that it was in,
from out to in this time,
because before we were like this,
now you're going to flip it over
and go like this.
It's easier to just show you guys
and explain it in words, you know.
Do that.
And then come back to this side
and do that one more time,
back to that other stitch.
This is called weaving it in
when you're just sort of
securing the loose tail end
so it doesn't like go over,
all over the place.
Pull that through.
All right.
So now once we have done that,
it's pretty secure
so that there isn't like a lump
right there,
because if you saw earlier
like where that yarn tail ended,
it was like,
there was like a cliff right there.
And now it's looking pretty even.
As you can see, yeah.
It still sort of stays a little bit
like from here
and these other projects,
you can see like the cliff
that's right here.
Like in this one also.
It will stay a little bit,
but what we did just now
will sort of help it.
So it's not too obvious,
but it will stay so or so.
So just thread your darning needle,
go through here
and try to get it into the head.
Get it back in here
and just bring it to random places
the same way we did
with our white tail end.
Just bring it to random places.
I think this is pretty good.
I'm just going to keep it here.
Take your darning needle out.
Just cut that short.
Don't hurt your little shimmy.
Don't hurt him.
We've come this far.
Don't hurt him.
And we're just going to take
our darning needle
at the end of our scissors
and then just poke that back in.
There.
There we have our little shroomy,
you guys.
So it is not completely done.
Obviously as you can see,
it has no face.
No soul.
Anyway,
so let me just move all of this
aside so it's not in our way.
Now you're going to take your
scrap black yarn,
your blue yarn,
and your light pink yarn.
So all of these colors that we have here.
And don't forget to keep your white yarn beside you
because you also need it
for these little thingies.
So just keep that,
keep that right there for now.
But I'll be doing the face first.
All right, so I have now
got my black yarn over here.
Sorry, let me just pull my chair
so I can explain this to you guys better.
So now we're going to be taking
the black yarn,
thread your darning needle.
If you want,
you can get one of those tools
that helps you thread your darning needle.
But I don't know.
Okay, so now that we have that,
grab a little bit of yarn.
Now you're just going to want to come in
from, I don't know,
the back or the butt.
I'm just somewhere random
besides the face.
And what you want to go,
what you're going to want to do,
I'm going to just take reference
from this shroomy right here.
So it's going to be like right next
to the arms, the eyes.
And they're like decently far apart.
So you're going to,
let me just take reference here.
And so you're going to come in
from the bottom of the eye.
Take it out.
And if I'm explaining this,
all these instructions,
a little bit faster,
too slow for you guys.
You can always
change the speed of the video
and the video settings
if you're watching this on Burt Media.
Well, I'm only going to be uploading it
on Burt Media I suppose.
So just come to the top of the eye.
But if that still doesn't work
with the speed,
I also made an in-depth tutorial
a couple days ago.
I think it was like yesterday
or two days ago.
I published a more in-depth video
on how to sew on eyes
and to your crochet plushies.
So you can always check that out
and it'll hopefully help you
a little bit more
than this tutorial will
because it's an entire video
dedicated to it.
So just come to the next eye.
Okay, ladies and gentlemen,
a couple minutes later,
I have now finally sewed on the face.
I love how cute he's looking right now.
Oh my God, he's so cute
and tiny, so cute and fluffy.
Yeah.
So I did his,
I used the black to do the eyes
and the blush with the pink yarn
and the little rim around his eyes
with blue.
I don't know, I usually would use white
but there's a white background
so that would make any sense.
So like if you guys do not know
how to embroider eyes or cheeks
or any sort of embroider work,
I made a full on detail tutorial
on how to do that.
On my channel, it's really recent.
But I'm just going to walk you guys
through this one thing
on how to do the hearts on the,
on the cat.
These, they're like dots but like,
like a psychedelic mushrooms dots
but in heart shape.
So I'm going to walk you guys through that
but if you guys would like to learn more
about face embroidery
or all that stuff,
you guys can check out my channel.
There's all sorts of stuff like that there.
So what we're going to do for the heart
is come into some Miranda
with our darning needle
and come in at the bottom of round two.
So as I mentioned earlier,
I showed you guys how to count rounds.
So this will be round one,
this will be round two.
So you can see the top of the heart
start at the bottom of round two.
So the round one is where the magic ring is.
The magic ring is right here,
that circle right there,
that first initial circle
and this will be round two,
the circle around that.
So like right under that round,
we're going to come out.
You're going to want to get a quite generous bit of yarn
because this takes up quite a bit.
So I think this,
yeah, this will be good enough
just for the head.
So we're going to come in
like in a little spot under that round,
this round,
like this sort of diagonal
and then come out in a stitch
that's in the same round as this one,
except like just like right here,
just like that,
we shall pull through
and see it has created the first little stitch.
Now you're going to come over like this
and go to that same stitch
and I'll create a little heart like that.
And so now once we stuck our needle into that,
we're going to come out somewhere else
but right here where the next heart shall begin
and it should just be like a stitch
apart from the last one.
I'm just going to set this here
so that you guys can take reference there
and just do that same thing,
go into one round beneath it,
put your needle into a stitch
that's right next to this one
and yeah, so we'll do the same for the next heart,
come in the next stitch away from the last heart
and so I'll just sort of demonstrate this to you guys
without talking too much
so that you guys can follow along,
come into that same stitch.
It might be a little bit tricky to do the last heart
because it's like between everything else
but just try, never give up,
never give up, go into that one stitch.
Yep, it seems to work,
just try to make them sort of equally spaced.
Okay, so now that we have done all these hearts at the top
you can see that there's a border
or not a border
but you know there's a separation between these hearts
and the hearts of the next round
and there's like one round between them,
like one line as you can see.
So once I put this back in here
I'm going to go one round down
and stick my needle back out
and the top of that next,
under that next round.
So this will be our border
between the other hearts,
this round right here.
So I'll stick my needle down here
and mine is going to be a little bit tricky
and then come out like that
and now we're just going to,
oh, now we're just going to do the exact same thing
but on this lower round.
Now we're going to do that all the way around.
I'll see you guys then.
And also if you want,
just to make your hearts pop out a little bit
just put your needle under those stitches
because sometimes they'll be a little bit tight.
Just put your needle,
oh, just put your needle under that stitch right there up.
Now it's not working also.
Okay, just put your needle under the stitch like that
and just sort of let it pop out
a little bit more like that
so that you could see,
so that you could see it.
All right, I'll just speed up this part a little bit
and then I'll see you once it's like that.
All right, so now once you have done
all of your little hearts,
I can't stop looking at this thing.
Now we have an entire shroomy army, you guys.
Mother, father, son, I guess.
What should we name this shroomy?
Maybe Andrew?
I don't know.
I feel like that's a little bit common
but I just love how cute it's looking.
So anyway, before you have completed the last heart,
you're gonna put it into the bottom of the heart
like we usually do
and then just bring it.
We're gonna bring it to the same spot
that this yarn tail,
it still attached to the ball
as you can see to the skein.
So you're gonna bring it to that exact same stitch.
You can see it's coming out from right there.
So you're gonna bring your needle there.
You're just gonna sort of work your way over there.
Wait, let me pop this stitch back out
so it looks good.
Um, come into that same stitch
and just come out right here.
Where are you?
Right there.
Come out.
So you can see they're in the same exact same spot now.
So you can take out your yarn.
See, I even used a little bit,
even took out a little bit too much
but it's better to have too much than too little
because it kind of sucks like if you pull out too little yarn
and then this thing comes incomplete.
I love how it looks with that yarn.
So just sort of cut these short
just like about a couple inches,
a couple centimeters,
just so that it's long enough
so that you could take both yarn strands
and tie a little double knot.
And all of this that we did right here,
you basically,
it's basically the exact same technique
that I used to sew on the face.
So yeah, I basically just did
like this sort of technique
with a black yarn and everything.
So this is how I embroider my plushies.
And now just take your scissors,
cut off the excess
and just take your darning needle
or the end of your scissors
and just sort of poke that in there.
Poke it back in there
so no one could see it.
And there, we are done you guys.
We're absolutely finished.
There we go.
Now we have our little family.
And like I said earlier,
these are such great best,
such great sellers at markets
or if you're just going around selling stuff,
you know,
even though they might be like
one of the most,
one of the cheapest things on my
in my basket or in my market,
they still sell so many cells.
So like you still earn a good amount of bucks.
And like I said earlier,
these sell so great at markets,
even though they are the cheapest item on my market,
they do still sell so well.
So like a lot of them,
they get sold so fast
because people love these little guys.
I mean, look at them.
Look at those eyes.
I think those are so cute.
And I think it's for me,
I usually price them around 40 to 50 pesos.
These will probably be 40.
But if I were to use a thicker yarn,
or if they were to turn out bigger,
it'll be 50 pesos
because thicker yarn is obviously
more expensive usually.
So this is just,
this is just in my case.
But if your market is more popular,
the price can obviously range.
But this is just what I do.
And sometimes I just don't want
to sell them at all.
I just want to keep them.
I just want to make an army of them
and then let them stay with me, you know?
So that's how you make your little shroomy.
I'll link the written pattern in the description
so that if you guys aren't complete beginners,
you guys can always read the pattern.
And now you guys have learned so much.
You guys have learned the increase stitch,
the single crochet stitch,
the decrease stitch,
bobble stitch,
front loops, back loops,
color changes,
and how to embroider.
So that's a lot of things that you guys learned in this video
on just how to make these small,
cute little things.
And these stitches that you guys have learned today,
you could make so many different things
out of like this jumbo duck right here, for example.
I used actually all of the stitches
that you guys learned how to do here
except the only thing I had to sew on these wings.
But it's very similar to embroidery
and I can surely make another tutorial about that
in the future and how to sew
body parts on like this beak.
But pretty much all the stitches I used,
single crochets, increases, decreases,
all in big things like this.
And you all learned in this little video.
So thank you so much for watching, guys.
I hope you guys liked the video
as much as I love making these little things.
And I'll see you guys in the next video.
Bye.
