Tip (make it right) Abbreviations


If there are no special notes, the
Rnd - round
toy is crocheted under both parts
of the loop. In some rows, there
sc – single crochet
are special notes: ‘into the front
loop only’ or ‘into the back loop
inc – crochet 2 sc in one stitch
only’. In that case, you need to
follow these instructions.
inc dc - crochet 2 double crochet in one stitch

dec – decreasing, crochet two stitches together

dc – double crochet

hdc – half double crochet

ch – chain ts – times

sl st – slip stitch
TIP (yarn)
turn – it is crocheting not in a circle, i.e. turn the
If you use different yarn, the toy crocheting in the opposite direction
will be bigger or smaller and you
will need more or less yarn and If there is a record in the brackets in the pattern,
wire than stated in the pattern multiplied by some number, for example (3 sc, 1 inc)
(i.e. thicker yarn will produce a x 3, it means you need to repeat this action 3 times,
larger toy and you may require that is 3 sc, 1 inc, 3 sc, 1 inc, 3 sc, 1 inc.
more yarn).

Tip (shift stitch)

While working, you will need to keep the work symmetrical. As the work tends to twist to the
right you need to adjust the position of the marker periodically (beginning of round). If you notice
that the marker moves right, you need to work one extra stitch in the end of round and move the
marker for one stitch (now the 2nd st of the round becomes 1st). If you notice that the marker
moves left, you need to unravel one stitch (or more if eeded). This is shift stitch – it is not included
in the description of the rounds. Usually you have to do shift stitches every 3-5 rounds (depending
on the yarn, hook and our gauge). To check if it is time to work shift stitch(es) fold your work in
half and check if the marker still goes straight. You should keep the marker in a straight line
on some parts of the toy. Instructions for the marker are given in the description of each part of
the toy if needed
