Black thread for embroidering around the eyes, I use Alize Cotton Gold.
Yarn needle.
Safety eyes or other fastenings. I use 14mm, 16mm.
Felt for eyes.
Glue, I use gel instant glue (it doesn’t leave yellow spots).
Scissors.
Stuffing (polyfill or polyester fiberfill).
Marker or contrasting thread.
Abbreviations:
sc – single crochet.
ch – chain.
sc – single crochet.
dec – decrease – crochet 2 stitches together; most often I make decreases by working only the front loop of the stitch. First, the first one, then the second one, and then the working yarn. (if not stated otherwise).
inc – increase, crochet 2 stitches into one stitch.
MR – magic ring.
()* – repeat what is in parentheses the number of times indicated.
The toy is crocheted in a spiral without slip stitches unless otherwise stated.
PATTERN
Fingers without stuffing:
Three fingers on each hand: 6 pieces.
1: 4 sc in MR.
2: inc, 3 sc (5).

Big fingers, 2 pieces:
1: 4 in MR.
2: inc, 1 sc, inc, 1 sc (6).

Arms – 2 parts: only stuff the sleeves.
I recommend starting with the big finger first, then the two top fingers, then the third, and without cutting the yarn, start crocheting the arm. Then do the same for the second one.
Skip the threads from the beginning of the finger (from MR) inside the finger and tie them with a tail at the top. Do not cut all the tails, they will remain inside the hand.
Arms – 2 parts: no stuffing.
1: continue crocheting on the first finger: 3 sc, take the second finger, crochet 3 sc around it, take the third finger, crochet 5 sc around it, crochet 1 sc in the joining place of the fingers (insert the hook into the first loop of the third finger, pull out the thread – you have 2 loops on the hook. Insert the hook into the last crocheted loop of the second finger, pull out the thread. Crochet 3 loops on the hook into one), so there are no holes. 2 sc around the second finger. 1 sc in the joining place, inc (18).
2-3: 18 sc.
4 (left hand) insert the big finger by crocheting 3 sc through 3 layers (2 finger layers and 1 arm), 15 sc (18).
4: (right hand) 6 sc, crochet 3 sc through 3 layers (2 fingers, 1 arm), 9 sc (18).
5: (1 sc, dec)*6 (12).
6: 12 sc, change color in the last stitch of the 6th row.
7: crochet 12 sc through the back loop with black yarn. With the front loop, crochet white yarn (1 sc, inc)*6, sl st. Thread the white yarn down and inside, tie it with a black tail.
