Learning to crochet a ladybug quickly and easily

In order to tie a ladybug, you need absolutely not much. This:

• Remains of red, black and white thread for knitting
• Hook suitable for the thickness of the thread
• Stuffing material (cotton, synthetic winterizer).

As mentioned above, you can knit anything in the style of a ladybug, it all depends on your desire. You will find a master class on bringing some of these ideas to life in this article.

Needle bed.

If you want to make a needle bed-sun, then you need to knit according to the “columns b / n” technique. For this craft, you still need a piece of cardboard.

The belly of a ladybug is knitted with a black thread like this: a chain of 4 c. p. closes in a ring with the help of a connection. Art.

• And here is the knitting pattern for the head (with black thread).
• 8 pillar. b / n under the loops of the chain (in the 1st row).
  16 column. b / n in the columns of the bottom row. (in the 2nd row)
  32 pillar. b / n (in the 3rd p.).
  32 pillar. b / n (in the 4th p.).
  48 pillar. b / n (in the 5th p.).
  48 pillar. b / n (in the 6th p.).
  72 pillar. b / n (in the 7th p.).
  72 pillar. b / n (in the 8th p.).
• The back is knitted in the same pattern.
• 4 pillar. b / n under the loops of the chain (in the 1st row).
  10 pillar. b / n in the columns of the bottom row (in the 2nd row).
  15 column. b / n (in the 3rd p.).
  20 column. b / n (in the 4th p.).
  25 column. b / n (in the 5th p.).
  25 column. b / n (in the 6th p.).
  25 column. b / n (in the 7th p.).

Below we offer a short description of how to combine already connected parts into a ladybug craft.

We cut out a circle from cardboard, with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the abdomen. We adjust this detail on the connected abdomen, and on top - the back, and sew around the circumference. Do not forget to fill the pillow with synthetic winterizer or cotton wool. Paws BC (3 pieces on each side) are imposed from air loops. With a black thread in the center of the back we embroider a strip with a chain stitch. We also stuff the head with cotton wool and sew it to the body. Eyes made of white thread and 6 black dots on the back fit like this: a chain of 5 c. p. closes in a ring with the help of a conn. Art. and links 15 tbsp. s / n under the chain loops. The pupils of the eyes are embroidered with a nodular suture.

Keychain.

In the same style, you can create a keychain ladybug. To do this, you also need black and white beads for dots and an eye, a needle with black thread and a base for a keychain.

First you need to tie the top with a red, or other color, thread according to the amigurumi pattern (Japanese art of knitting soft animals). Below is a pattern for knitting a ladybug in this technique.

Knitting sequence BC:

1. Knit in a spiral, without joining the top.
2. Next, knit the bottom, in the same way as the top, with a black thread from rows 1 to 6.
3. Tie the belly and back together. Before finally connecting them, stuff the BC with synthetic winterizer.
4. After that, knit a dividing strip of VP (18 pcs.). Do not cut off the remaining thread: sew on the head and close the junction with it.
5. We knit the head of a ladybug. Next, sew the head with stitches along the edge.
6. Sew beads of the corresponding color as an eyelet and dots.
7. And finally - we thread a keychain ring or glue a magnet if you want the sun to sit on your refrigerator.

Potholder.

And here is a master class for your attention on the simple manufacture of a positive and bright potholder in the form of a ladybug. For this craft, we need to have red and black yarn, a hook, thread, needle, glue and plastic eyes.

• We knit 3 air loops and close in a ring. In the same ring we knit 6 sc. At the end of the row is a connecting post. The next row is already 12 sc. For each subsequent row, add 6 sc. Thus, we knit a circle to the diameter you need.
• We take a needle, insert black yarn into it and sew a dividing strip on the back with a “back to the needle” seam.
• Head: we knit 8 sc with black yarn, turn the craft over and knit the same amount of sc.
• Tie the resulting blank with black yarn. At the end of the row, work 10-15 in. P.
• Tie black circles (specks on the wings of the BC).
• Sew 6 circles on the back.
• Do not forget this point: glue the eyes of the sun, and this is what you get in the end.

As you can see, you can crochet in the style of a ladybug not only a beautiful toy, a comfortable pillow, a keychain, but also more useful little things: a kitchen potholder and even a children's suit and hat. The last idea will make your child not only happy, but also give him comfort and warmth. Get inspired, create and delight others with your creativity and needlework.

Lesson progress.

I really liked knitting these ladybugs: firstly, because the process takes very little time, and secondly, because it is a good way to dispose of leftover yarn.

But the main thing is that, despite their simplicity, ladybugs cause a lot of positive emotions when you look at them or hold them in your hands. They are soft, very pleasant to the touch, fit well in the palm of your hand. Reminisce about your carefree childhood.

DIY ladybugs are great, safe toys for kids (not like Chinese ones).

Such toys can be used for activities with children. For example, learn colors with their help or learn to count.

Arrange them in a row and get a train. Also, in the hands of children, ladybugs can crawl along paths, crawl from object to object along bridges, etc.

You can expand the "field of application" of ladybugs like a magnet - by gluing a magnet to them, you can use it as a needle bed. Now it is a decoration of the refrigerator, and a wonderful gift, and a more user-friendly learning material for kids.

Good day, dear colleagues! I offer you a master class on making a needle case "Ladybug" in the preparatory group.

I propose to make such an application of the “Ladybug” with the children in kindergarten. The age of making the appliqué by children may be.

A crochet ladybug is a very cute and creative product that you can please your family, children or friends with. Such a wonderful craft can be used as a toy for a child, as a pillow, or simply as a souvenir. Such a handmade ladybug can be a great gift for your loved ones. After all, these are the most useful and good insects that will not leave anyone indifferent. This master class on crocheting ladybugs will help even beginner needlewomen learn how to knit such a miracle and delight themselves and their loved ones.

Homemade needle bed

This cute needle bed is knitted using the single crochet technique.

Necessary materials for work:

• red, black and white threads for knitting;
• hook (should fit the thickness of the thread);
• stuffing material (synthetic winterizer, cotton wool);
• piece of cardboard.

The knitting pattern for the belly of a ladybug is very easy. This part of the product is knitted with black threads. First you need to close a chain of four air loops into a ring using connecting posts. Then you need to start working on knitting the head also with black threads. To do this, knit 8 single crochets under the loops of the chain in the first row. In the second row, make 16 single crochets. In the third and fourth rows - 32 single crochets. In the fifth and sixth rows, knit 48 single crochets. The seventh and eighth rows include 72 single crochets.

Knit the back in the same way as the head, but with a different number of loops. In the first row - 4 columns without a crochet under the loops of the chain. The second row is knitted with 10 single crochets. The third row consists of 15 single crochets. Fourth row - 20 single crochet. Fifth, sixth and seventh - 25 single crochet.

The next step is to assemble all the parts of the cow. Cut out a circle from cardboard, slightly smaller in diameter than the diameter of the calf. Put this detail on the knitted abdomen, and on top - the back and sew around the circumference. Do not forget about stuffing the pads with padding polyester. Ladybug paws (6 pieces in total) are knitted from air loops. With a black thread in the center of the back, embroider a strip with a chain stitch. Stuff the head with cotton wool and sew to the body. Eyes from a white thread and six black dots on the back are knitted as follows: close a chain of five air loops into a ring using a connecting post and tie 15 double crochet stitches under the loops of the chain. Black pupils on the eyes are embroidered with a knotted seam. The needle is ready!

Knitted keychain

In the same way, you can make a ladybug keychain.

For this craft, you will also need black and white beads for eyes and dots, a needle with black thread and a keychain base.

At the beginning of work, it is necessary to tie the top with a red thread according to the amigurumi pattern. Amigurumi is the Japanese art of knitting soft animals. The scheme and description of knitting looks like this:

Knit in a spiral, without joins at the top. Then knit the bottom, as well as the top, with black thread from the first to the sixth row. Next, knit the belly and back together. Before their final connection, fill the ladybug with synthetic winterizer.

Then knit a dividing strip of air loops in the amount of 18 pieces. Do not cut off the rest of the thread, the sewn head will close the junction. Knit the head of a ladybug. Sew it with stitches to the belly. Sew on beads for eyes and dots. At the end, pass the ring from the keychain. Keychain "Ladybug" is ready!

Bright tack

For such a fun and positive craft, you need to have red and black yarn, a hook, thread, needle, glue and plastic eyes.

Getting started must begin with knitting three air loops and close their ring. In the same ring, knit 6 single crochets. At the end of the row, make a connecting column. The next row is 12 single crochet. For each subsequent row, add six single crochets. Knit a circle to the desired diameter. Then take a needle, insert it into black yarn and sew a separate strip on the back with a “back to the needle” seam.

Knit the head with black yarn with 8 single crochets, turn the craft over and knit the same number of single crochets. Tie the resulting blanks with black yarn. At the end of the row, make 10-15 air loops. Then knit black circles (spots on the wings). Sew six circles on the back. Do not forget about gluing the eye of the sun.

Here's what happens:

You will need:
50 g each of red, black and white yarn (35% cotton, 35% polyacrylic, 30% viscose, 135 m / 50 g); circular knitting needles and a set of stocking knitting needles No. 3 and 4; for eyes 2 and for points 6 black buttons and 2 buttons in the form of ladybugs; cotton wool and rice for wings.

To make a runway.

And Ladybug will understand

It will fly away from my palm.

Ladybug, black head, red shirt, Dear Ivashka.

On the edge of the shirt Black lines.

On the shirt dots - Droplets from the night.

Ivashka has children, Sleeping nearby on a branch.

Their paws are tenacious, Each in a black cap.

Wake up in the morning, smile sweetly.

They will fly to the flowers For dew from the leaves.

They will take to eat and drink, After they will lick their lips.

On swampy hummocks They drink dew in a sip. This is how Ivashki live - Red shirts, Black heads, Ladybugs!

Before talking about ladybugs knitting needles, let's ask a question, do you know why a ladybug is called a ladybug? Of course, there is no exact data, however, it is believed that the name of this cute bug was given by popular rumor. In appearance, these are very pleasant, touching, touching insects - that's probably why, by analogy with the phrase "God's man", the adjective "God's" appeared. With the word "cow" everything is also quite simple: at the slightest danger, the insect tightens its paws and releases a drop of liquid, which should scare away potential and real enemies. Of course, neither in color nor in purpose can be compared with milk, however, the analogy is still visible, and therefore the insect has become a "cow". By the way, in many languages ​​​​of the world it is called in a very similar way - for example, in Israel it is "the cow of Moses", in England - the "bird of the Virgin Mary", in Germany - the "bug of the Mother of God". In general, all this means that if the option is not close enough to you due to not particularly close relations with the specified tool, you can think about linking ladybugs knitting. Science is not difficult, and if you have the desire, you will definitely master it!

Ladybug knitting - 5 interesting ideas:

1. Pillow - ladybug
