Crochet Santa Claus: Description

Let's start crocheting Santa Claus from the body.

Let's connect 3 air loops into a ring.

2-3 rows: increase in every 2 stitches

4-5 rows knit in circles

In the 6th row make increases through 1 loop

7-10 rows knit in circles

In row 11 increase through 2 stitches

12-15 rows knit in circles.

In row 16 increase through 3 stitches

Rows 17-19 knitted in the round. We fill the torso.

We continue to crochet Santa Claus from the inside. Knit 2 rows in the round, and then decrease every 2 stitches in two rows. Next, make decreases through the loop, and in the next two rows, make decreases in each loop.

Now you can trim the thread.

We take white grass and tie it around the body in one row.

Do you still think that Snegurochka is the granddaughter of Father Frost? No, everyone has long known that the faithful companion of the main giver of all New Year's gifts is his wife. She is a wonderful housewife, a reliable friend, the best adviser and an irreplaceable assistant to the Russian “Santa Claus”. And if it weren’t for Grandma Snegurka, Grandfather would not have had time to visit all the kids and give out such welcome surprises and presents. Therefore, it is impossible to do without a grandmother under the Christmas tree, otherwise Moroz Morozovich will remain hungry, not combed and not collected. So, quickly stop knitting bunnies and start making this charming couple - just in time for the New Year 2011! Happy holidays everyone! Happy knitting!

Natalya Mayer described Grandfather Frost very well and cheerfully

There is a hut in a dense forest,

It has carvings with patterns,

And a feather bed

Which one is hard to sleep on:

Instead of fluff in that feather bed

Only stars-snowflakes,

Ice blanket

Replaces a blanket.

And Moroz lives in the hut

And it's called Red Nose.

It's cold at times

Covers the ground with white snow.

Helps animals too -

Gives snow pillows,

Covers with white fluff,

Whispers songs in your ear.

The gray wolf howls -

She can't sleep from the cold.

And Frost from night to morning

Insulates her hole.

And in the den there is a clubfoot,

Instead of honey, he licks his paw.

Let the frost crackle on the roof,

The bear doesn't hear anything!

Perched on a pine tree,

An owl hoots in his sleep:

“Wow, and the cold,

Never get warm!”

Santa Claus walks through the forest

And he puts things in order:

He pine nuts

Sprinkles it for the squirrels for fun.

I met a red fox -

Gave her mittens.

And he gave his sheepskin coat to the wolf,

Because the wolf was trembling.

This Santa Claus

What is called Red Nose,

Helps all animals

And it saves you from the cold.

Every person decorates a Christmas tree at home for the New Year, real or artificial, depending on their own preferences. But the generally accepted tradition is the arrangement of the Snow Maiden and Father Frost under the New Year's beauty. These figures can be bought in a store or made yourself from threads at home.

In order to get a soft and bright toy, you need to know how to crochet. The diagram and description of Santa Claus crochet will be simple and understandable even for a beginner. A cute knitted Santa Claus and Snow Maiden can be a creative gift for family or friends. When knitting a product, you should use yarn called Grass. Thanks to it, you can create an unusual fur coat and beard for a winter character.

Preparation of materials and process of creating a figure

Before you start work, you need to prepare:

  • Red wool blend yarn - 50 grams.
  • Cream-colored wool blend yarn - 15 grams.
  • White yarn - 1 gram.
  • Yarn “Grass” for beard - 10 grams.
  • Pieces of foam rubber.
  • Black beads for eyes.
  • Glue gun.
  • Scissors.

Knitting body figures

The first stage of work is knitting the Grandfather’s torso. For this purpose, red yarn and Grass yarn will be used. We crochet a chain of three loops and connect it so that we get a small ring.

The body of the figurine is almost ready. Now it needs to be filled with pieces of foam rubber. After filling the body, you need to knit from the inside. The next 2 rows are simply knitted in the round, after which the stitches are shortened. Two rows must be decreased every 2 stitches. In the next row, the reduction occurs through each loop, then in each loop. The thread is cut and the body is completely finished.

You can tie a white thread around the bottom and top of the body in a circle so that you get an impromptu edge on Grandfather’s fur coat.

Knitting a head from yarn

Knitting the figurine's head is made from cream-colored yarn. To get started, 3 loops are connected into a ring. Next 2 rows an increase is knitted in each stitch. On the third row, the increase is performed through 1 loop. The fourth row is performed in a circle without any increase. The fifth row is performed exactly the same as the third.

From sixth to ninth- knitting is done in a circle. There is no need to add anything at these stages. On the tenth line the reduction is performed every 3 stitches. We knit the eleventh line without any additives. The next row is similar to the tenth row in its design. The difference is the number of cuts. They occur every 2 holes. After which knitting is performed without adding or subtracting - 1 row. The last line is shortened in each loop and the remaining thread is cut.

Making a cap for Grandfather

At the initial stage, the hat is made of red threads. The work begins with a ring of three loops. In the first two lines, you need to make an addition in each line. The next row allows adding through one sling. Then knitting occurs without any additives. In the fifth line, the addition occurs through each line. The next row is simply knitted in the round. The last two rows are made with yarn The grass is white for beauty, and the thread is cut.

Making the hands of Santa Claus

The hands are knitted from red threads. Getting started is also done from those loops that are connected to each other:

  • First line. Increase in every hole.
  • Second line. There is no increase.
  • Third line. A chain of five holes is knitted. Then it is folded in half and knitted in the round. It turns out to be a finger.
  • Fourth line. It does not involve additions.
  • Fifth line. Knitted with Grass yarn.

Then we knit in a circle with red threads. After this, the hand is filled with foam rubber. In the next few lines the reduction is performed. The second arm of the figure is knitted similarly to the first.

Then you can attach the head to the body using a glue gun. Grandfather’s face must be decorated with the beard familiar to all children. For this, the needlewoman will need white yarn. For a beard, it is enough to knit two rows on the figure’s face. The arms are glued to the body of the figure.

Making a bag and strap

The bag itself is made of red yarn, and the strap is made of white.

For this, a chain of five holes are tied in an oval. Then an addition is made to each loop. Then nine lines are knitted without increasing. The product is filled with foam rubber.

For the strap, you need to cast on loops in the amount of 70 pieces from white threads. The resulting bag can be tied with a bow and attached to the hand of Santa Claus. Decorate the face using black beads and a red nose from a piece of yarn.

So, your cute DIY craft is ready. It will become an indispensable and creative decoration for the New Year's green spruce. The process doesn't take long and does not require professional knitting skills, and even a beginner can make a product using this master class. Santa Claus amigurumi crochet patterns can be found on the Internet on home craft sites.
