Video master class, Amigurumi for March 8 tulip

Today in Russia, a special Japanese type of needlework is gaining popularity - amigurumi (“knitted; wrapped”). Amigurumi is most often knitted toys in the form of animals or people; it can also be various cupcakes, hats, flowers and other little things. The most popular amigurumi crocheted, but you can also order similar things with knitting needles or knit them yourself. The choice of tool depends on the desired density of the product; crochet work is more voluminous, knitting is smoother. Synthetic padding or cotton wool is usually used as a filler, which allows you to create a toy that is soft and light, and also safe for children.

A distinctive feature of this Japanese technology In addition to the method of knitting in the round without seams, they are also small in size from 1 to 50 cm and have a cat-lamp appearance. Amigurumi can be easily ordered or purchased at any craft or handmade gift store, or if you have certain skills, you can make it yourself, following instructions from a magazine or video master class. Such an original, cute gift will suit any beauty; it can be given as a soft toy, hairpins, brooches, keychains and other accessories and interior elements. Moreover, such gifts have their own uniqueness and can be created according to your sketch: it could be a ballerina, an accountant, a sweet old lady, or a character from your favorite cartoon. The master gives each toy its own character and mood.

Initially, Japanese needlewomen made exclusively manga and comic book characters, but over time this technique became widespread and each master brought something of his own, and although the basic principles of creating amigurumi did not change, the number of images and the application of this type of art received comprehensive development. Today, amigurumi is not just a knitted toy, it is a whole knitted world. I am sure that many will like this world.

Good afternoon friends!

Time has turned to spring, and therefore it’s time to think about gifts for the upcoming holidays.

It's so warm here, in my garden even two dandelions have bloomed, tulips have hatched, and they always remind me of the approaching March 8th - a holiday, first of all, for all mothers.

Everyone decides for themselves what to give their mother. I think the most important gift for mom on March 8 is flowers. You can present them in a beautiful wrapper or even in the form of a modest bouquet. It would also be nice to design it in an original and tasteful way.

Mothers of any age will be happy with a handmade gift. Maybe they’ll like this crocheted basket? Especially for those who love knitted comfort in the home.

Crochet basket with flowers

A bright crocheted basket can be useful for fruits or simply for interior decoration.

Of course, I’m attaching a pattern for knitting the basket, and I’ll tell you a little about how to knit it.

The basket consists of square motifs with flowers, very similar to the ones I used to knit a pillow and offer ideas for beautiful knitted blankets.

We don't need a lot of yarn; leftovers of different colors will be enough. But to knit this basket, I specially bought new yarn; I wanted the colors to be bright and rich, but I didn’t have those at home.

Any yarn is suitable: cotton, acrylic, wool blend. We select the appropriate hook, naturally.

Description of knitting a basket

For the basket you need to connect several motifs with flowers. Their number will depend on the thickness of the yarn and the size of the product you need.

My basket turned out to have a diameter of 21 cm and a height of 14 cm. I took a thick yarn, so I only needed to knit 5 motifs.

Knitting floral motif

1st row: in a ring of 6 VPs - 6 single crochets.

2nd row: RLS in every second column of the previous row and 3 VPs between them.

3rd row: in the arches from the VP of the 2nd row we knit 1СБН, 1С1Н, 3С2Н, 1С1Н, 1СБН.

The result is a small flower with three petals.

4th row: RLS in each column with one crochet of the previous row and 3 VP between them.

The flower will be tight, but there is no need to be afraid, everything is correct. This is exactly how the effect of a three-dimensional flower is obtained.

5th row: same as 3rd row. As a result, we get a second tier with six petals.

In the 6th and 7th rows we knit another row of petals. In this case, the beginning of knitting a row is shifted to the top of the petal by pulling the thread in half-columns.

6th row: sc at the top of each petal of the previous row and 5 ch between them.

7th row: in the arches from the VP of the 6th row we knit 1СБН, 1С1Н, 5С2Н, 1С1Н, 1СБН.

Now we change the yarn to green, attach it at the top of the petal, and knit leaves.

8th row: 1VP at the beginning of the row, 5VP, 3 double crochets, knitted together, in the second column of the second petal, 5VP, 3C2H together in the same column of the second petal, 2VP, 1C1H in the 6th column of the second petal, 3VP , 1С1Н in the second column of the third petal, 2VP, 3С2Н together in the 6th column of the third petal, 5VP, 3С2Н together in the same column of the third petal, 5VP, 1СБН at the top of the 4th petal.

9th row: attach the yarn of the main color (I have gray) and tie all sides of the motif with single crochets. In the corners we knit 3 VP between the columns.

Collecting items in a basket

Similarly, you need to connect the remaining motifs of different colors.

I crocheted the motifs together on the reverse side using single crochets. You can also sew from the front side with a needle and thread, making the seams less noticeable and the surface more even.

I tied the top edge of the basket with picot.

For the bottom we knit a regular circle. I am not providing a diagram or description; anyone can probably cope with this task.

We sew the bottom with motifs and the crocheted basket is ready!

I took pictures as best I could from different angles.
