THUMBS UP

Crochet in no time one of the most popular emoticons. Use it as coaster, applique, gift hanger, or just for fun. :)

I crocheted the thumbs quite tight, like Amigurumi. You can crochet more loosely, too. The thumb can be crocheted with any yarn weight.

All steps are explained in detail in words and pictures, so this pattern is suitable for beginners as well. This pattern contains 4 pages of crochet instructions and 6 pages of detailed step-by-step instructions.

Used techniques (US crochet terms): magic ring, chain, slip stitch, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet & increases. The figures are crocheted in continuous rounds/spirals (only the button) as well as in closed rounds.

The thumbs got to be 12.5 x 12.5 cm & 9 x 9 cm tall (with 3.0 mm hook and DK yarn like Puppets Lyric 8/8 & 2.0 mm hook and sport weight yarn like Catania Originals).

You need it smaller or bigger? No problem! Simply use lighter or heavier yarn
