Crochet pattern - - Labrador Retriever -Crochet Modelling
Chrochet Modelling means something like modeling while crocheting.
Unlike amigurumi, where simple geometric shapes are crocheted and sewn together to create a doll-like figure, Chrochet Modelling uses a crochet hook and yarn to model very realistic figures. Nothing is sewn, and everything is crocheted in one piece.
Chrochet Modelling takes a little more time than crocheting amigurumis, but the result speaks for itself.
Basic crochet skills and knowledge of the different types of stitches are required.
By specifically using single crochet stitches, adjustment stitches, increases, decreases, chain stitches, short rows, front post stitches, front post increases and decreases, and of course yarn colors, you can shape faces and bodies quite realistically. This makes it possible, for example, to recreate your beloved pet.
This was also the basis for developing this technique.
In this pattern, I show how impressive results can be achieved with this technique using a
Labrador Retriever as an example.
The pattern is very detailed and extensive. On 59 pages, I show and explain step by step (172 photos illustrate the modeling) how Chrochet Modelling works. I have tried to write this pattern in such detail that even beginners with basic knowledge can follow it.
