ZADARMO POSTUP - HACKOVANA BABIKA

* Hackujeme dookola, riadky neuzatvarame.

* Pouzite kusok vlny na zaciatku kazdeho riadku, jednoduchsie sa tak pocitaju riadky.

. - RO - retiazkove ocko

I - KS - kratky stlpik

V - pridaj - z jedneho KS urob dva KS

A - odober - z dvoch urob jeden = zhackuj 2 ST do jedneho KS

st - stlpik

R - riadok

o - magicky kruh / alebo / 2 RO, do 2.RO uhackuj 6 KS

MALA BABIKA – uhackovana z tenkej priadze
VELKA BABIKA – uhackovana z vlny

HLAVA

R1 - (6st) = 6 KS do magickeho kruhu (ALEBO - 2 RO, do 2.RO uhackuj 6 KS)

R2 - (12st) = 2 KS do kazdeho ST dookolo

R3 - (18st) = (* uhac 1 KS, do dalseho ST uhac 2 KS *) opakuj 6 x

R4 - (24st) = (* uhac 2 KS, do dalseho ST uhac 2 KS *) opakuj 6 x

R5 - (30st) = (* uhac 3 KS, do dalseho ST uhac 2 KS *) opakuj 6 x

R6 – R13 = uhackuj KS dookola (30st)

R14 - (24st) = (* uhac 3 KS, zhackuj 2 ST do jedneho KS *) opakuj 6 x

R15 - (18st) = (* uhac 2 KS, zhackuj 2 ST do jedneho KS *) opakuj 6 x

R16 - (12st) = (* uhac 1 KS, zhackuj 2 ST do jedneho KS *) opakuj 6 x

R17 - (6st) = (* zhackuj 2 ST do jedneho KS *) opakuj 6 x

ked ukoncite R15:

* Nasadte bezpecnostne oci, alebo nasite oci medzi riadkami 11 a 12 (nechajte 6 volnych stlpikov medzi ocami)

* Vysite usmev (na riadku 14)

* Zacnite vypchavat & tvarovat hlavu

ked ukoncite R17:

* odstrihnite priadzu, nechajte kratky koniec, zacistite koniec.

hlava VELKEJ BABIKY z vlny :

R17 - (8st) = (* uhac 1 KS, zhackuj 2 ST do jedneho KS *) opakuj 4 x

R18 - (8st) = uhackuj KS dookola

RUKA cela (urob 2)

R1 - (6st) = 6 KS do magickeho kruhu (ALEBO - 2 RO, do 2.RO uhackuj 6 KS)

R2 – R10 = (6st) = uhackuj KS dookola

* odstrihnite priadzu, nechajte dlhy koniec priadze na nasitie ruk k telu

NOHA (urob 2)

R1 - (6st) = 6 KS do magickeho kruhu (ALEBO - 2 RO, do 2.RO uhackuj 6 KS)

R2 - (6st) uhackuj KS dookola

R3 - (6st) uhackuj KS dookola

R4 - (7st) 2 KS do prveho ST, 5 KS

R5 - (7st) uhackuj KS dookola

R6 - (7st) uhackuj KS dookola

R7 - (8st) 2 KS do prveho ST, 6 KS

R8 - (8st) uhackuj KS dookola

R9 - (8st) uhackuj KS dookola

R10 - (9st) 2 KS do prveho ST, 7 KS

R11 - (9st) uhackuj KS dookola

R12 - (9st) uhackuj KS dookola

* uhackujte prvu nohu – vypchajte nohu - odstrihnite priadzu, nechajte kratky koniec

* uhackujte druhu nohu – vypchajte nohu - ked bude noha dohackovana, neodstrihnite priadzu, pokracujte s TELOM

ZACIATOK TELA :

* v ruke drzime druhu nohu (neodstrihli sme priadzu, takze pokracujeme telom). Posledny riadok nohy dame dokopy, zatvorime takto otvor nohy navrchu (predtym musime vypchat nohu) - zhackujeme otvor nohy 4 stlpikmi a nohu sme tymto sposobom uzavreli.

* vezmeme prvu nohu, posledny riadok dame dokopy – zhackujeme otvor nohy 4 stlpikmi a nohu sme tymto sposobom uzavreli.

Nohy su TERAZ spolu v jednom riadku, to je: 4 ST na kazdej nohe, spolu je to 8 stlpikov v jednom riadku, aby sa tak vytvoril spodok tela

* nohy sa budu moct zohnut, takze babika moze lepsie sediet

* nohy takto nemusime prisivat k telu

TELOPOZNAMKA : (zvycajne hackujeme cez dve priadze predchadzajuceho riadku)

R1 - uhackujte 8 KS do zadnej priadze kazdeho ST – (8 KS na zadnej casti tela) /// otocte telo a ///

uhackujte 8 KS do prednej priadze kazdeho ST - (8 KS na prednej casti tela), spolu 16 ST

riadok neukonci, neuzavri, znova pracujete dokola – pouzite vlnu na oznacenie zaciatku riadka

R2 - (16st) uhackuj KS dookola

R3 - (16st) uhackuj KS dookola

R4 - (16st) uhackuj KS dookola

Uhackovala som rozne male oblecenia.

Saty morskej vily sa daju vyzliect....

Ak ma niekto zaujem, mozem napisat postupy na saty, sveter a nohavice tiez.....

Ten isty postup, ale male babiky su z tenkej priadze na hackovanie.

Ten isty postup, ale vacsie babiky su z vlny.

WORK in closed rounds – NOT continuous rounds as doll – (NOT joined rounds)

Start with colour PINK – rows 1 to 5:

R1 – 1 ch; 3 ch (count as 1 tr); make 1 tr (into 4^th chain from the hook); 4 tr (into the same chain); slip stitch to close row [ 6tr ]

R2 – 3 ch (at the beginning of the row count as 1 tr); tr 2 in next st;

(* 1 tr, tr 2 in next st *) - repeat 2 times; slip stitch to close row, [ 9 tr ]

(* 1 tr, tr 2 in next st *) - repeat 3 times; 1 tr; slip stitch to close row, [ 13 tr ]

R4 – 3 ch (at the beginning of the row count as 1 tr); tr 2 in next st;

(* 1 tr, tr 2 in next st *) - repeat 5 times; 1 tr; slip stitch to close row, [ 19 tr ]

(* /see row before - leave 1 tr st empty/, 2 tr {crochet under row before where 2 ch are} *) - repeat 8 times, slip stitch to close row, [ 20 tr]

Fasten off and weave in end.

(This part is very hard to explain, so I will post picture pattern under this very soon):

CHEST COVER + 2 shoulder straps (in one row 13):

~ see the last row of dress (red row number 12) - leave 9 tr from beginning of row (from back of the dress) - attach WHITE colour.

~ 6 dc, ch 1, turn, 6 dc (on top of the last 6 dc) = chest cover (continue with shoulder strap)

~ 8 ch (first shoulder strap) - slip stitch onto 4th tr from beginning of row (continue with back)

~ 6 dc (on back of the dress), 8 ch (second shoulder strap), slip stich to front of chest cover

~ NOTE: under each arm is left space of 4 tr (of red colour)

MAKE 2 FINS – colour PINK

R 1 - ch 3; tr 11 into 3rd chain from the hook; slip stitch to close row (including chains - 12 tr)
R 2 - ch 2; (* tr, 2 tr into next st *) rep 4 times; into last tr make 3 tr; slip stitch to close row (18 st)
R 3 - ch 1; into next treble make - 1tr, 1 dtr, 1 tr / into next tr - slit stitch

My doll pattern - testing

April 1st - April 10th 2012

I made 3 dolls from wool in 10 days.
One of the doll is for winner from my facebook page: Katkas creations

LEGS:
With my first dolls, I used - chain 2, into first chain 6 dc
Now I use only magic ring (see photos)
R 1 - 6 dc into magic ring.

After I finished R1, I used short piece of wool at the beginning of every round - as marker, easy to keep count of rounds

LEG (make 2)

R1 - (6sts) = 6 dc in magic ring (OR chain 2, 6dc in second chain from hook)

R2 - (6sts) dc around

R3 - (6sts) dc around

R4 - (7sts) = dc 2 in first st, dc 5

R5 - (7sts) dc around

R6 - (7sts) dc around

R7 - (8sts) dc 2 in first st, dc 6

R8 - (8sts) dc around

R9 - (8sts) dc around

R10 - (9sts) dc 2 in first st, dc 7

R11 - (9sts) dc around

R12 - (9sts) dc around

* crochet 1st leg – stuff the leg - fasten off (cut yarn), leave a short end

* crochet 2nd leg – stuff the leg - when leg is finished, do not fasten off (do not cut yarn), continue with BODY

BEGINNING OF BODY:

* flatten the last round of the second leg - crochet 4 slip stitches to close leg opening,

flatten the last round of the first leg – crochet another 4 slip stitches to close leg opening.

The legs are together NOW in 1 row, 4sts for each leg, total of 8 stitches in the last row to create the bottom of the body

* legs can bend, so doll can sits

* legs are not stitched separately to the body

BODY

R1 - dc in a back loop of each st – (8 dc on back body) /// turn the body and ///

dc in a front loop of each st - (8 dc on front body), total of 16sts,

do not join, again work in rounds – use a row marker

R2 - (16sts) dc around

R3 - (16sts) dc around

R4 - (16sts) dc around

R5 - (16sts) dc around

R6 - (16sts) dc around

R7 - (16sts) dc around

R8 - (16sts) dc around

R9 - (14sts) (dec 1, dc 6) repeat 2 times

R10 - (10sts) (dec 1, dc 2, dec 1, dc 1) repeat 2 times

R11 - (8sts) (dec 1, dc 3) repeat 2 times

R12 - when using wool BIGGER DOLL - (8sts) dc around

After I made legs & body. I made arms & heads.

I wanted to save body colour, so I used white wool on R 2 - R 10

Smiles are ready, just hair to make.
Already made ;-) see photos on my facebook.

MY LAST, 2nd BLOG POST (this is only 3rd) - there is written pattern for my doll - I checked the pattern & there is just one change, BODY :
old numbers R 2 to R 13 changed to new numbers R 1 to R 12
SO IT'S EASIER TO COUNT !!!
YOU CAN FIND THIS DOLL PATTERN AGAIN DOWN HERE:
