Sweater (knitted with 2.0 mm needles):
Cast on 34 stitches + 2 edge stitches on 2 short needles. (Knit in rows)
Row 1: All purl stitches.
Knit the front side in the following pattern: 5 back, 5 sleeve, 10 front, 5 sleeve, 5 back. All purl stitches according to the pattern.
When there are 21 stitches left on the sleeves, bind them off in the usual way.
In the next row, make increases in the purl row, 6 times for the sleeves.
Now, you can try on the sweater. I switch to circular short needles (2.0 mm) and see how many increases are needed. To do this, make increases in every 3rd stitch in the knit row.
Continue knitting in the knit stitch until you reach the desired length (I knitted 10 rows).
Bind off in the usual way.
Tie 2 ties at the back by casting on 25 chains each.
Pants (crocheted with 2.5 mm hook):
Cast on 74 stitches + 2 turning chains (start each row with 2 turning chains).
Crochet in rows. Single crochet in each stitch for 5 rows.
Starting from the 6th row, make decreases at the beginning and end of each row (skip the first 2 stitches).
Crochet without decreases for rows 10-12. Periodically check the fit on the dinosaur.
Make 2 loops at the back (cast on 45 chains, slip stitch in each chain).
The front loops are tied, and the buttons are glued.
Put on the pants, sew the crotch and 2 cm in the back, so the tail is not visible.
