Legs (2x)
The leg is a little bit tricky and i hope you understand my explanation. Soles of feet are worked in joined, oval-shaped rnds. Ch 10 (sc in 2nd st from hook) 1st row: 8 sc, 3sc-increase (three stitches into the same stitch) in next st and turn the work 2sc-increase (two stitches inthe same stitch) inthe next sts,8sc, 2sc-increase inthe next 2sts, 10sc,3scincrease in the next 2sts, 10 sc, place a marker $\underline{{\underline{{\mathbf{\delta\pi}}}}}$ 29 sts total.
Now you have the sole of the foot.
Work 5 rounds with sc until the marker. Decreases in the next three sts, 22sc again decreases in the next three sts,19 sc and again decreases in the next three sts, 16 sc and finally two decreaeses (in the next two sts), 13sc = 16 sts left.
Work 20 rows sc in all sts around
Pin arms and legs on body to ensure correct positioning. Sew arms and legs to body. Weave in ends Now have fun with your Rob or Bob or anything else :-) If you have questions, corrections or another things to tell me, write at: kreativstadl@web.de
