Attention!
Using this master class, you will crochet a bee in pants.
This master class does not include crochet lessons. Basic crochet skills are required.
The difficulty level of the master class is intermediate.
The toy details are crocheted in a spiral (unless otherwise stated).
The arms are crocheted into the body, the legs are sewn on.
I used wire for the arms as a frame, but it’s not mandatory.
The pants and wings are removable.
I crochet using half-double crochet stitches; if you crochet using single crochet stitches, the size of the toy may differ from the stated size.
The finished toy size when using the specified materials is approximately 22 cm (excluding the height of the antennae).

Antennae – Adorable Bee
(2 parts, graphite color, 2 mm hook)
Before starting to crochet chains, leave a tail of about 10 cm. It will be needed to attach the antenna to the head.

Do not tighten the loops, crochet loosely. Tie a knot at the end of the antenna. Photos 2, 3

Arms – Adorable Bee
(2 parts, graphite color, 2 mm hook)
If you plan to use wire for the armature of the arms, it needs to be prepared. We need 2 pieces, each about 15 cm long (I have thin wire, so I used pieces 30 cm long, folding them in half, thus the length of each piece became 15 cm). Bend one end of the wire so that the length of the piece becomes approximately 13-14 cm. Wrap the wire with fabric plaster as shown in photo 10.

Similarly, crochet the second wing, but do not cut the thread. Photo 25. Next, we will crochet ties and join the 2 wing pieces. Start with a chain of 35 ch. Turn the chain, there are loops on the back side (indicated by the arrow in photo 26). Insert the hook under these loops and, starting from the second loop from the hook, crochet 34 sl st. Crochet loosely, do not tighten the loops. Photo 27
Then, crochet 3 sc along the top of one wing, then 3 sc along the top of the first wing. Crochet the second tie similarly to the first one. Cut the thread, secure it. Photo 28
Pants – Adorable Bee
(Blue color, 2.5 mm crochet hook)
Note! If your bee’s waist circumference exceeds 21 cm at its widest part, use a 3 mm crochet hook for crocheting pants.
Crochet the pants from the bottom up. For the first pant leg, make a chain of 24 ch, join it in a circle with sl st (make sure the chain is not twisted).
1-2: 24 sc (24) for 2 rows
3: 24 sc, sl st (24)
Cut the yarn, hide the end in the piece.
Similarly, crochet the second pant leg (photo 29), but after the third row, do not cut the yarn; we will join both legs: 3 ch, join the first pant leg (photo 30), place the row marker (located behind the pants).
4: 24 sc on the first pant leg, 3 sc on the chain, 24 sc on the second pant leg, 3 sc on the chain (54) Photo 31
5-13: 54 sc (54) for 9 rows
14: (17 sc, inc) x 3 (57)
15-17: 57 sc (57) for 3 rows. Photo 32
Next, we will crochet the strap.
Make a chain of 30 ch. Try on the pants; you may need a different number of chains. Then, create a buttonhole. Starting from the second loop from the hook, crochet 2 sc, 2 ch, skip two loops, starting from the third loop, crochet 25 sc. Then, crochet 56 sc across the top of the pants, sl st. Photo 33
Note that the buttonhole on the strap is designed for a button with a diameter of 6-7 mm. If your button’s diameter is larger/smaller, you will need to calculate the number of loops yourself.
Sew the button, as shown in photo 34.
Embroidery on the pants
For the embroidery, I use YarnArt Jeans yarn in milk color. Execute the embroidery using the “French knot” technique.
Perform the embroidery on all sides. I placed the knots randomly. Photo 35-37
