Sharing knowledge is about the most wonderful thing a person can do. I have been struggling with reproducing what is in my head and what I see. I love to crochet but have so little imagination, and math was really difficult for me. Practical application makes it easier. Again, thank you so much. I will review this over and over until I own it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16513170248826405318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912822986869516991.post-607358950699833892012-02-03T09:40:19.568-08:002012-02-03T09:40:19.568-08:00Um if you are trying to make a unicorn/horse, chop...Um if you are trying to make a unicorn/horse, chop down the horse in imagination into body parts. <br /><br />Draw them roughly on a "math" paper (the one with grids) its way more easier then roughly estimating the size. <br /><br />If you know geometry, re-size the object thing well, use the squares as your "ruler" (i used the lines at the top example) and lets say the hoof is 1 square, and so as the thin legs but when it reach the thigh it got bigger into assuming around 3 to 5 box at the thigh. notice that every row the size changes. <br /><br />So lets say you start with 3mg at the hoof, since it is 1 row (1 box). Keep in mind that you only made the base of the hoof, so add in an inc in all that will have 6mg, and your base of the hoof is done.<br /><br />Now you need another row going up... in my mumbles up above i call it the wall... place in your wall of sc and it will curve up. <br />(The main formula: inc will make it look flat, sc will make a wall, and dec will close it up) <br /><br />(not important, but good to learn)You may want to shape the legs bended to a side or so... so be brave enough to place the amount of inc equally with the number of dec to bend the walls. when you are used to bending it with inc and dec you can shape/sculpt it well.<br /><br />The legs are plain sc assuming its 6 rows? not sure its all in my mind so you need to draft it out first. Anyway, after that 6 rows of plain sc in all you will want to add few inc to make the thigh bigger... <br /><br />Refer to the table above, from 6 you wanna curve it slowly in circle right? so lets say 18 as end of the thigh... (i guess its 18 as remember earlier i said its 3 to 5 box, well i took 3 box for trial and error, so 3 x 6 is 18). So continue on with "sc inc in all" like the table says ("3mg, inc in all (6), sc inc in all (9), 2sc, inc in all (12), 3sc inc in all (15), 4sc inc in all (18)") or you can mix and match, lets say you want to start with 8 multiplication to give a bump curve at the thighs so add 2 inc in previous leg row and continue with 8 multiplication. if you wonder it ends with 16 - 20... dont worry, you are the creator, so skip 2 inc's at the last row of 20 stitches. that way you still get 18.<br /><br />Well done here, so make 4 and make the body up. (Note : This pattern is not tested out as its just quick explanation, you may want to add or remove rows and resize it)<br /><br />Okie, the unicorn horn is a little tough, as its so tiny if you make a palm size horse. suggest try using the thin crochet thread instead with 3mg to start and keep going around as the trick is "sc, inc, sc, inc... um it will grow 45 degree cone shape. try reducing some inc when it reach 7 or 8 rows so you can end off. (really painful to do this as its tiny and you need to do tight) (Conclusion... making a bigger horse is better for horns but it may be stretchy after some time. the smaller one is my fav as it doesn't stretch much yet its painful to make the horns.<br /><br />Woa sorry for the super long explanation... Probably hard to understand if you dont have a picture of a horse.
