Sheep in popcorn stitch

 These sheep are just so cute. It would make a fun stress ball. Made these with 5 ply cotton yarn and a 3.5mm hook. You would need stuffing, and safety eyes and nose. You can also sew the eyes and nose, if you do not have safety eyes and nose. Will need more yarn for this project because you need 6 double crochet to make one popcorn stitch. 



The tutorial video :




The body

1) make a magic ring, 6 single crochet (sc) into the ring (total 6)

2) chain 3, make 6 double crochet (dc) in one stitch, remove hook and place hook on the 5th loop of the dc and hook it to the chain that we removed and yarn over and pull thru all to make one popcorn. So in this row make 6 popcorn (one in each stitch), (total 6)

3) chain 3, make 2 popcorn in one, like an increase (total 12)

4) chain 3, [1 popcorn, 1popcorn increase] make 6 time (total 18)

5) - 10) chain 3, 1 popcorn all around (total 18)

11) chain 3, [1popcorn, 1 popcorn 2 together] make 6 times (total 12)

12) chain 3, [popcorn 2 together] make 6 times (total 6)

add stuffing before completely seal the sheep

13) chain 1, [single crochet 2 together] make 6 times to close up the ball


Face

1) magic ring, chain2, 6 single crochet (sc) into ring (total 6)

2) 2 sc in each (increase) (total 12)

3) [sc next 3, inc] make 3 times (total 15)

4) [sc next 4, inc] make 3 times (total 18)

5) [sc next 5, inc] make 3 times (total 21)

6) [sc next 6, inc] make 3 times (total 24)

7) sc all around (total 24), leave a long tail for sewing and add stuffing


Ears

1) magic ring, 6 sc in ring

2) change color (optional), sc in next 3, inc, sc in next 2, inc, joint with a slip stich, leave a long tail for sewing before cutting yarn


Leg

1) chain 2, 6 sc in the 1st chain (total 6)

2) chain 1, sc all around only on the back loop (total 6)

3) - 4) sc all around (total 6)


Tail

2) - 4) sc all around (total 4)


I sew the legs and the tail when I have completed row 10 of the body. You can also sew the tail and legs after you had completed the body. Sew the head first before attaching the ears. Lastly, make 3 more popcorn for the head. Chain 10, make 1st popcorn on the 4th stitch from hook. After that skip one and make another popcorn. Skip one and the 3rd popcorn. Sew it onto the top of the head.
