Hello I really liked the hippopotamus
Can you please explain how to make the nostrils?
And what size eyes to use
Thank you
The nostrils are embroidered on 2-3 stitches, but you can also crochet a chain (of 5ch) with 4 sc and then sew them at a distance of 12-13 stitches between them. The eyes are 5-6 mm.
Bonjour, je suis en train de faire l’hippopotame et si je suis votre tuto pour le détail des yeux j’obtiens une toute petite pièce qui n’a rien à voir avec votre photo.
Prenez vous un crochet plus gros pour le faire ou est-ce qu’il manque des rangs sur le tuto ?
Merci d’avance.
Bonjour,
Si le détail est trop petit, utilisez soit un crochet plus gros, soit un fil plus épais.
Merci pour votre commentaire.
I am assuming the hippo is stuffed with filling? It never mentions putting stuffing in it
Hi Judy,
Thank you for the comment.
Of course, filler is used. I translated it exactly as it was, following the original Russian pattern.
What is the hook size? It says 1,2?
Hi Peggy!
I wrote it wrong, it’s a 1.2 mm crochet hook.
