I am finally back and have finished this little blue guy that I hve been working on for a while. There was a slight delay when I went overseas for 2 weeks and then a delay because I started a new diet and wanted to sleep and not make plush but now I have completed this squishy lovely player.
Free pattern, some of it may be a little confusing because I had to fudge my way through but it should be pretty easy if you just follow the steps.
Am really glad I've completed him.
Now I think I need to move on to a few more pokemon before I attempt Tia.
If you want to buy Julian, I do have him up in my etsy store here.
This squishy Julian is 33cm (13 inches) tall from his black hooves to the tip of his ears/horn. There are no hard parts as he's either made from yarn or his features were felted on.
I made him from DK weight yarn with a G/4mm size hook. If you don't like felting, then you can cut out felt and sew his features on and embroider the thinner embellishments.

Round 9 - 10: SCx48 (48, 2 rounds)
The next few rounds may be a bit confusing, it's just for the hair piece so it's okay if you lose your way and make it up as you go. I didn't include a number of stitches on the next two rounds as it got a bit confusing making this.
Round 11: SCx9, Chx8, from 2nd chain SCx7, (back on the main head piece) SCx9, Chx10, from 2nd chain SCx9, (back on the main head piece) SCx10, Chx10, from 2nd chain SCx9, (back on the main head piece), SCx9, Chx8, from 2nd chain SCx7, (back on the main head piece) SCx11

Leave a long tail and then sew this hair piece to the head. The two longer tails go around the white nose portion. Sew down how you'd like it to look.
I manipulated the piece a little and sewed it down not entirely flat so it would have the look I wanted.
After this I needlefelted the eyes on with the pink and black. Then felted some black into his nostrils. If you prefer, you can sew in felt instead.

Round 11: SC2togx6 (6)
Round 12: SCx6 (6)
Stuff the tail firmly and sew the tail to the body. If you have fat fingers, you might want to stuff the tail before round 11. I just prefer to stuff at the end because I don't like crocheting around stuffing.
Big Stars
(make as many as you'd like to sew onto the shirt - I made 2 coz they're quite big, one for the front and one for the back)
Round 1: CH2, DCx7 in the 2nd stitch from the hook (7)
Round 2: Chainx5, [SCx2, DCx2] going back down the chain you created (Starting from 2nd chain from the hook), SC into the next chain on the original round, then SC. And repeat from the start until you get all four points.
After you've created the 4th point, you only need to crochet one SC instead of the two.
Small Stars
(I made 6 but you should make as many or as few as you wish)
Round 1: CH2 then continue crocheting in the 2nd stitch from the hook - [SC, Chx3, SCx2 (down the chain starting from the 2nd stitch then next stitch back into the original hole)]x4, then slip stitch to join the last point to the main part of the star.
Leave a long tail to sew onto the body for all the created stars.
Free pattern, some of it may be a little confusing because I had to fudge my way through but it should be pretty easy if you just follow the steps.

Wow, thank you so much for this pattern!!! If you make more villagers, please let us know! Great job :)
ReplyDeleteHello! It's been a while since I worked this pattern but from what I can see 22 is correct. When you reach the nostril piece, crochet 4 into the nostril and leave the rest uncorked. Then when you crochet back onto the main head piece, skip 2 stitches on the main piece and continue on. This leaves two gaps underneath each nostril that's sewn shut when you finish the round.
