Let’s move on to its realization.
HEAD x2
(to achieve with the most light pink cotton thread)
R1 → magic ring with 6 sc
R2 → 6 Inc (12 sc)
R3 → *1 sc, 1 Inc *
R4 → *2 sc, 1 Inc *
R5 → *3 sc, 1 Inc *
R6 → *4 sc, 1 Inc *
R7 → *5 sc, 1 Inc *
R8 → *6 sc, 1 Inc *
R9 → sc in each sc
R10 → *7 sc, 1 Inc *
R11 → sc in each sc
R12 → *8 sc, 1 Inc *
R13 → sc in each sc
Do not close the loop, keep it to assemble the 2 sides at the end with sc. Leave a very good length of thread to sew the two parts together at the end (at least 11,81 inches)
SNOUT
With the most dark pink thread:
R1 → magic ring with 6 sc
R2 → 6 Inc (12 sc)
R3 → *1 sc, 1 Inc *
R4 → *2 sc, 1 Inc *
With the most light pink thread:
R5 → taking only the back loop, *4 sc, 1 dec *
R6 → sc in each sc
→ Make the nostrils with the light pink thread as in the photo.
→ Stuff a little.
EARS x2
(to achieve with the most dark pink cotton thread)
R1 → magic ring with 4 sc
R2 → 4 Inc (8)
R3 → sc in each sc
R4 → *1 Inc, 1 sc *
R5 → *2 sc, 1 Inc *
R6 → *1 Inc, 1 sc *
R7 → *2 sc, 1 Inc *
R8 → *1 dec, 1 sc *
R9 → sc in each sc
R10 → fold the ears in half and join the two sides with 10 sc.
R11 → 1 CH and 10 sc
BOW
(to achieve with rainbow thread)
R1 → make 4 CH
R2 → make 5 Dtr in the 1st sc
R3 → 3 CH and 1 sc in the first stitch from the start
R4 → 3 CH and we do the same thing the other way
With the rest of the thread, go around the middle of the knot then make a knot behind with the 2 remaining threads. Cut the ends.
TAIL
(to achieve with the most dark pink thread)
R1 → 8 CH
R2 → 5 Tr in each stitch
ASSEMBLY
→ place the safety eyes on one of the sides of the head.
→ embroider eyelashes with your black embroidery thread.
→ sew the nose as in the photo.
→ Join the 2 sides together with sc and do not forget to incorporate the ears in this step. When you reach ear level, you will not be able to make sc between the two parts. It will be necessary to perform Slip stitch with the 2 sides and the ear.
→ add the smile with the black cotton thread.
→ glue the rainbow knot with glue or textile adhesive.
→ turn the pig over and sew the tail.
