Forest Animals / Field Animals

Dear users, dear authors,
roe deer , red deer , hares , rabbits , moles , squirrels , and other animals of the forest , meadows , and fields are often shy, but they’re very easy to recreate. Get started right away.

@Authors:
2–3 patterns per author are sufficient. Don’t forget to include an image, a link, and the usual information.

Caterpillars love the forest. 
For Raupelina, you need about 150 g of leftover yarn, though it can be more or less depending on your stamina and the length of the caterpillar
2 needles or a set of double-pointed needles for needle size 2.5–3.0, a yarn needle 

• It is knitted only in stockinette stitch, so knit on the right side, purl on the wrong side.

        Sweet Caterpillar Raupelina
Everything ready? Then you can get started.
In the pattern, the pictures always show you what to do or what the knitted result should look like.

Crochet Pattern Dora the Grasshopper Lady

Have fun, yours Doreen.

Ingo and Ines Hedgehog feel completely at home in the meadow. They simply love life in nature. Do you too?

Using the specified materials, Ingo and Ines Hedgehog will each be 20 cm tall. I personally recommend cotton yarn for making all my stuffed animals and dolls.

The pattern includes lots of step-by-step photos that make it easier to work up. Basic crochet skills (single crochet, increases/decreases, spiral rounds, etc.) are required, however.

Here is the pattern for Ines and Ingo:

The little owl has ventured out of the forest and gone to cooking school. Now she wants to impress you with her culinary skills. Crochet this little chef! He can also serve as a practical keychain, because there’s a pocket for a shopping trolley token under the apron that closes with a zipper. That way, your shopping trolley token won’t be forgotten or lost.

Have you met Mario yet? He’s a little mouse who loves soccer more than anything. When he gets up in the morning, it doesn’t take long before he grabs his ball and chases it across his meadow. Thankfully, Mario has a big family who all share his passion, so he usually finds someone to play soccer with him. And whether he’s the goalkeeper or the striker, he always does a great job. But what he loves most is using his speed to dart down the wing.
