Description:
You will need: 150 grams of yarn of red and black colors, zipper 20cm, hook number 3.
The main mating is a column without a crochet.
From the black yarn tie the abdomen - a circle with a diameter of 30 cm. (1st row - 4 st b / nakida, 2nd - 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 84, 86 , 88, 92, 100, 108, 116, 124).
Of red yarn - the wings. Two semicircles 1st row - 4 tbsp. b / nakida, 2 nd, already in half - 6 st b / nakida, 8, 10, 12 and so on adding in each row 2 stabs / nakida up to 60.
Fold the wings inward and join them along the diameter with each sides 4-6 cm so that there is a hole for the "lightning" and sew it. (before that I tied the details of the wings of black strands one row)
From the black strand tie the head of the beetle - a small bag with a diameter of 10 cm in the wide part. The first row - 4 tbsp. b / nakida, the second - 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 40.
Sew the back and abdomen parts. Fill your head with filler and sew to the body. Tie a mustache - a chain of air loops 8 cm long and fasten it on the head. To the chain, you can attach two pompoms - the ends of the mustache. Eyes and specks on the back of the beetle - oilskin. (I did it differently: I loosened the balls at the ends of my mustache, and the specks are small knitted crochets sewn to the wings).
