Number 1 (EN)

(no finished product)

This Number 1 will be a decoration highlight at each birthday party or each other first anniversary.
Combined with my school cone (free patttern) you can also use it as a decoration for school enrolment.

This pdf contains the crochet pattern for the Number 1 in a standing 3D variante and in a hanging variante and for the 3 ballons.
The statet materals are only for 1 figure. You have to match the materials when you want to make more Number 1.

The PDF-pattern consists of 19 pages and has 61 colored pictures.
It is available in German (DE), English (EN) and Dutch (NL).

With the stated yarn and crochet hook the standing Number 1 is approx. 18 cm high, th hanging variant is a little bit longer.

The size also depends on how tight or loose you crochet. If you use another yarn as stated, you have to match the size of your crochet hook accordingly to the yarn size and also the amount of yarn balls, whereby the size can also vary.

I used Schachenmayr Catania Originals cotton yarn and a 2 mm crochet hook.
