We knit a solar giraffe - a scheme
This cute creation I knitted as a birthday present.
The colors of this amazing animal, and especially of our knitted character, inspire a sunny mood (at least for me)!

So, let's start knitting.
For the main knitting, cotton yarn of two colors - beige and yellow with a thick thread (hook No. 2) was used, and cotton yarn of white, yellow and black color with a thread is thinner (for knitting eyes, horns and embroidering the mouth line, hook No. 1.3).
The Giraffe scheme is named "Sunny".

Neck (1 detail) - yellow yarn, hook No. 2
We make a sliding loop, while leaving the long end of the thread, we need it to sew the neck to the head.
We select 15 VP, we connect with a connecting column in a circle, and then we knit in a circle - 22 rows (15 СБН).
We leave the thread to sew the neck to the body of giraffe.
Fill the part with filler tightly!
Leg (4 parts) - beige and yellow yarn, hook No. 2
We start beige yarn.
1st row: make an amigurumi ring, type 6 loops
2nd row: (1P) * 6 times (12)
3rd row: (1 sc, 1p) * 6 times (18)
4th - 6th row: three rows (18 sc)
For the best durability and strength of the toy, I decided to insert a bead with a diameter of 15 mm into the bottom of each leg.
So it is here that we insert the bead into knitting and begin to tie it further.
7th row: (4 sc, 1U) * 3 times (15)
8th row: one row (15 sc)
Attach the yellow thread:
9th - 22nd row: fourteen rows (15 sc)
We knit 1 VP, turn and knit 7 RLS.
We leave the thread for sewing the part to the body.
Fill the part with filler tightly.
Similarly, we knit all 4 legs.
