Hey it's robin from rose and lily. Today, i'm going to show you how to make this strawberry cow, she's super cute and cuddly, and this is honestly one of my kids favorite toys. The first thing you'll need is some super chunky, plush yarn in three colors. So a primary color, a secondary color and then a color for the horns. You'Ll also need a small amount of medium weight. Black yarn for the nostrils, then you'll also need 12 to 15 millimeter safety eyes, a usg crochet hook a yarn needle scissors, poly fill and preferably some stitch markers. The stitches you need to know beforehand are single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet magic ring chain, stitch, slip, stitch, increase, invisible decrease and then we'll also be doing a color change. Next, we'll get started on the pattern. Remember if you want to keep up to date with all my latest pattern releases, please click like subscribe and hit that notification bell we're going to start on the hooves and then work our way upwards. So we're going to start with your secondary color and we're going to do six single crochet in the magic ring to start pull the ring tight. Then i like to mark the end of each round with a stitch marker in round two. We do two single crochet into each stitch. In other words, we do six increases, and that brings us up to twelve stitches in round two in round three, we start with three single crochet and then we do an increase, and we do that all three times to get 15 stitches at the end of round Three we're going to do a color change, so stop halfway in the last stitch of the round. So here's the last stitch of round three and i'm going to cut the yarn and i'm changing over to my primary color and i'll be doing the next few stitches over the tails from the color change now for the next four rounds. So that's rounds four to seven we're just doing 15 single crochet around. So that's no increasing and i'll. Do these four rounds off-camera after round seven on the first leg, only we are going to do a slip, stitch to close and then cut the yarn, and i'm going to mark that slip stitch with a stitch marker now you're going to do that all again. For the second leg, but don't slip, stitch or cut the yarn to finish so. I'Ve just done the second leg, and now i'm going to chain three now we're going to join that to the first leg so find the stitch after the marked slip stitch and we're going to do a single crochet into there working over that tail. From the first leg, this single crochet also forms the first stitch of round one of the belly, and i'm just going to put a marker in it. Now we continue with the belly. We'Ve already done one stitch of the belly, and now we continue with 14, more single crochet in the first leg, and the last of these goes into the marked slip stitch. Now we are going to crochet into the chain. There were three chain stitches, so we're going to do one single crochet into each of them to make three single crochet. Now we're going to do 15 single crochet into the second leg, and we finish off with three single crochet into the chain. The last stitch of round one goes just before that marked stitch on the first leg, and i'm just going to mark the stitch here round. Two is going to start in this marked stitch here and we're going to start increasing. So in round two. We do five single crochet and then an increase, and we do that all six times to get 42 stitches when working with super chunky yarn, you can sometimes get these holes when joining the legs together. If this happens, you can just sew them closed with one of the tails in rounds three to seven. So that's five rounds, there's no increasing! We just do 42 single crochet around and i'll. Do these rounds off camera now we're going to start decreasing for the top of the belly, so in round 8 we first do 5 single crochet and then we do an invisible decrease and we do all of that six times in total to get 36 stitches in Round eight round 9 is just 36 single crochet around in round ten. We do four single crochet and then a decrease, and we do that six times to get thirty round. 11 is just 30 single crochet around in round 12. It'S three single crochet and then a decrease, and we do that six times to get 24 round. 13 is two single crochet, followed by the decrease, and we do that six times to get eighteen. If the piece is getting quite small now you can stuff it after round thirteen, or in my case, i'm going to stuff after round 14. in round 14, it's a single crochet and then a decrease, and we do that six times to bring us down to 12 Stitches in the round, so now i'm going to stuff the body and the legs make sure to get stuffing all the way down to the bottom of the legs in round 15, we're going to do the neck and it's just 12 single crochet around in round 16. We are doing two single crochet into each stitch, so that means we're doing 12 increases, which brings us to a total of 24 in round 17. We do a single crochet and then an increase, and we do that all 12 times to get 36 stitches in round 18. We do five single crochet and then an increase, and we do that six times to get forty two round. 19 is our last round of increasing, so we do six single crochet and then an increase. We do that six times to get forty eight now for the next five rounds. We just do 48 single crochet around and i'll. Do these five rounds off-camera now we are going to start decreasing so in round 25, it's six single crochet, followed by the decrease, and then we do that six times in total to get 42 stitches at the time of filming. I didn't have the safety eyes available, but you will add them between rounds 23 and 24 about 10 stitches apart in round 26, it's five single crochet and then a decrease. We do that six times to get thirty six in round 27, it's four single crochet and then decrease. We do that six times to get thirty in round 28. It'S three single crochet, followed by a decrease, and we do that six times to get 24 in round 29, it's two single crochet and then decrease. We repeat that six times in total to get 18 stitches in round 30, we do a single crochet and then a decrease, and we do that six times to get twelve. Now i'm going to stuff the head make sure to get stuffing into the neck so that the head doesn't wobble round. 31 is the last round of the head and we're just going to do six decreases, which will bring us down from 12 stitches to six just work slowly here, because it's quite small at this point at the end of round 31, you can cut the yarn making Sure to leave a bit of a tail now we're going to sew that hole, closed, go through the front loops of the stitches from round thirty-one and then pull the tail tight and that will close the hole and you can insert the tail into the head. Just to a few places to secure it now the body and the head are finished. Next, we're going to start on the arms and once again we start with our secondary color in round one. It'S six single crochet in a magic ring, pull the ring tight and, as always, i like to use a stitch marker at the end of each round. In round two, we do six increases which brings us up to 12 stitches in round three. We just do 12 single crochet around, but stop when you reach the last stitch of round three because we're going to do a color change. So i've just done my 12 stitches in round three and i've stopped halfway through the last stitch and i'm going to change to my primary color, i'm going to do the first few stitches of round four over those tails from the color change. So in round four, it's two single crochet and then a decrease, and we do that three times to get nine stitches in rounds five to eight. So that's four rounds. It'S just nine single crochet around and i'll. Do these four rounds off camera now we're going to stuff the arm, and i like to stuff the arm only about halfway now we're going to close the top of the arm so fold, the top of the arm flat and then we're going to do single crochets Across both sides all the way along the top of the arm. Now we can cut the yarn making sure to leave a bit of a tail for sewing and you'll make the second arm exactly the same way. Thanks for watching part, one i'll put the link to part two in the description box.

A Daniels: I am a novice crocheter. And I absolutely love these patterns. I don’t know how to read a pattern really and these really do help. Sometimes I have to do the same thing several times but I eventually get it. And if I can do it literally anyone can
Kaisa T: to anyone who sees this, PUT THE SAFETY EYES IN BEFORE MOVING ON TO THE NEXT PART, BEFORE SEWING THE HEAD! Otherwise it's a great tutorial. I haven't croched in years and I could follow allong just fine after watching a couple 5 minute youtube tutorials on how to make the magic circle and hdc/dc. Took me around 8-10 hours I think but again, I had to look at tutorials and did other stuff at the same time.

Natalie Daniels: since she omitts this crucial step, in round 2 for the legs you do 3 sc, than increase ( 2sc ) and than you have to skip two stitches to get 15 otherwise it won't work. that was annoying to figure out and should've been stated in the video
