Half a skein of white plush yarn. I used Wolans Yarns Bunny Baby 062.

Crochet hook #3.0-4.0. #2.0 for cotton yarn. 

Trapezoidal safety eyes with a diameter of 18-20mm.

ABBREVIATIONS: 

MR – magic ring 

sc – single crochet 

inc – increase (2 single crochets in one stitch) 

dec – decrease (single crochet two stitches together through the front loops) 

dec3 – decrease of 3 single crochets worked together 

ch – chain 

hdc – half double crochet 

dc – double crochet 

sl st – slip stitch 

sk – skip 

puff – puff stitch (3 hdc in one stitch) 

*n – repeat n times 

One small addition: try to crochet paired parts, such as paws and ears, on the same day. Because sometimes, even for one master, under the same conditions, paws or ears may differ from each other. 

Let’s start! EVEN LOOPS! 

PATTERN  

Upper paws 2 pcs.: 

Start crocheting with white yarn. 

1 Row: 6 sc in MR. 

2 Row: 6 inc = 12 sc. 

3 Row: 1 sc, dec repeat 5 times = 10 sc. 

Change color to brown (sweater). I only crochet the white part of the paw. 

6 Row: 8 hdc, 2 dec = 10 hdc. 

7 Row: 1 sc, dec repeat 5 times = 10 sc. 

Fold it over the edges and crochet 5 sc. Secure and cut the thread. 

We will attach the paws later. If desired, you can embroider stitches on the paws using YarnArt Jeans in black. 

Lower paws and body: 

Start crocheting with white yarn. Don’t forget to stuff our legs. 

1 Row: 4 ch, insert the hook into the second chain and continue according to the pattern. 

2 Row: inc, 1 sc, 5 sc in the last chain, 1 sc, inc = 12 ch (including the first ch). 

In the last increase, change the color to the main color (orange). Secure the white thread but don’t cut it. We will use it to crochet claws. 

3 Row: 1 sc, 2 inc, 1 sc, 2 inc, 1 sc, 2 inc, 1 sc, 2 inc = 20 ch. 

4 Row: inc, 5 sc, (change color to white in the last sc and crochet a puff stitch in the next loop, closing it with the main color – see photo/video), 2 sc, puff stitch, 1 sc, puff stitch, 2 sc, puff stitch, 5 sc = 21 ch. 

At this stage, fix the white thread and cut it – it won’t be needed anymore. 

5 Row: dec, 19 sc = 20 ch. 

6 Row: 6 sc, 2 dec, 1 sc, 2 dec, 5 sc = 16 ch. 

7 Row: 1 sc, inc repeat 4 times = 20 ch. 

8-10 Rows: 20 sc. 

11 Row: dec, 5 sc, 2 inc in hdc, 5 sc, dec = 16 ch. 

12 Row: 16 sc. 

13 Row: 6 sc, 2 dec, 6 sc = 14 ch. 

14 Row: 14 sc. 

15 Row: (1 sc, inc) repeat 7 times = 21 ch. 

16 Row: 21 sc. 

Secure and cut the thread on the first leg. On the second leg, do not cut the thread. Join the legs together. I place the legs slightly inward so that our fox has a slightly “pigeon-toed” look. 

17 Row: Crochet 13 sc along one leg, make 3 ch, join the second leg and crochet 20 sc along it, make a decrease, capturing one loop of the leg and one chain stitch, 1 sc through the “bridge” chain stitch, and again a decrease from the “bridge” stitch and one loop on the leg, 7 sc along the leg. 

18 Row: 13 sc, dec3, 20 sc, dec3, 7 sc = 42 ch. 

19 Row: 25 sc, (1 sc, inc) repeat 3 times, 5 sc, (inc, 1 sc) repeat 3 times = 48 ch. 

Close all stitches of the next row (20th) with brown yarn to achieve a straight line for the sweater. Continue crocheting with brown yarn. 

20 Row: 26-48 sc (7 rows). 

Before starting the next row, align the marker in the center of the heel. If necessary, make offset loops. 

27 Row: 10 sc, 2 dec, 20 sc, 2 dec, 10 sc = 44 ch. 

28 Row: 10 sc, dec, 20 sc, dec, 10 sc = 42 ch.

31 Row: (8 sc, dec) repeat 4 times = 36 ch. 

32 Row: 36 sc. 

In the next row, crochet the upper paws of the Fox. Between the paws, crochet 13 sc in front and back. Align the marker in the center of the back and continue crocheting. 

33 Row: 6 sc, crochet the paw in 5 sc, 13 sc, crochet the paw in 5 sc, 7 sc = 36 ch. 

34 Row: (4 sc, dec) repeat 6 times = 30 ch. 

Crochet the next row through the back loops with orange yarn. Secure and cut the sweater yarn. It won’t be needed anymore. 

35 Row: 30 sc. 

Start crocheting the head. There will be frequent color changes, orange/white. For convenience, I make color highlights in the text. Be attentive and keep an eye on the marker. It should always remain in the center of the back. If necessary, crochet offset loops. 

Attach white yarn and continue crocheting. 

36 Row: 30 sc. 

37 Row: 4 sc, 6 inc, 9 sc, 6 inc, 5 sc = 42 ch. 

38 Row: 8 sc, 4 inc, 17 sc, 4 inc, 9 sc = 50 ch.

18 Row: (dec, 6 sc) repeat 2 times = 14 sc.

Do not stuff. Fold in half and crochet 6 sc through both sides. Secure the thread, cut it, leaving a tail for sewing. I sew the tail diagonally from behind under the sweater. 

Collar and sweater sleeves: 

I crochet with a size 2 hook from YarnArt Jeans brown yarn in ribbing through the back loops. I crochet a strip of the required length (checking as I go) and sew it with a needle. The width of my ribbing is 12mm for the neckline and 5mm for the sleeves.
