The document provides instructions for crocheting an eagle toy using various materials like cotton string and beads.

Cotton crochet string in chocolate brown, white and orange colors along with a crochet needle sized 2.0mm are used as the main materials.

The body is constructed by making magic rings and increasing/decreasing stitches in rounds to form the shape. The head is made separately and then joined to the body.

BALD EAGLE Design by Atelier56

This crochet eagle, as well as this written pattern, was created by


me. She measures 10 cm and as in her composition small and pointy
parts, so it´s not an appropriate toy for small children. You may use
this pattern, as well as the dolls you make from it or from a variation
or adaptation of it, as you like… if you manage to sell this pattern,
please let me know how .

This crochet pattern is mostly worked in rounds, as a spiral and from


a magic ring. The type and number of stitches will be specified thru
out the pattern. In this work I used cotton crochet string n.º 6 in the
colors chocolate brown, white and orange and a crochet needle n.º
2.0mm. These measures are not relevant. You may use the thickness
of string you would like as long as you use a needle with the right
scale. Choosing a different string thickness will result in a scale
variation on the finished doll.

The abbreviations I use in this pattern are the ones I use when I write or transcript crochet dolls patterns, here’s the
translation

1slst – 1 slip stitch;


1sc – 1 single crochet;
2sc – 1 single crochet in each of the next 2 stitches;
2X sc – 2 single crochets in the next stitch;
1hdc – 1 half double crochet;
1dc – 1 double crochet;
3Xdc (popcorn stitch) – make 3 double crochets in the same stitch but do not end any of the double crochets
stitches, leaving one loop of each double crochet on the hook crocheting these loops together in the last stitch;
1 htr – half treble crochet;
1tr- 1 treble crochet;
1 st. – 1 stitch;
Inc. – make 2 crochets in the next stitch;
Dec. – Decrease 1 stitch by joining 2 stitches together;
Ch1 – chain 1 crochet;
T. – Turn, working in the opposite direction;
F.O. – Finish off, leaving a long tail.
