Break yarn, then fasten off in the invisible way. To make the laces, cut two pieces of gray yarn about 15 cm long. Attach them inside the hat (photo 18) Choose assorted yarn and cut five pieces of different lengths, ranging from 7 to 12 cm. On each piece, tie a knot at one end. Using a needle, draw them through the magic ring of the hat, from the inside to the outside (photo 19)
Wand
For the handle, cut a wooden pick (a toothpick for example) about 3,5 cm long. Cut two stars from a felt sheet in the color of your choice and glue them to the handle (photo 20) You can use the small star bellow as a template.
Assembly
Beak: Sew the beak between rounds 8 and 11 of the head, make sure it is centered between the two eyes (photo 21)
Head: You will place four pins that will serve as markers to place the head (photo 22 and 23). First visualize the midline of your duckling’s body. Place the 1st pin on this line between the last two rounds of the body. Place the 2nd pin on the midline again between rounds 10 and 11 of the body. Place the last two pins on the flanks between rounds 12 and 13 of the body equidistant from the first two pins. Pin the head to the body using these four markers. You will need to pull a little to get everything to match. Sew the head using the front loops of round 17 of the head.
Wings: Ping the wings to the body. The two ends should fall approximately at the same level of the eye and the back of the head (photo 25). Sew following the dotted line, only sew on the inside of the wing, so that these stitches are not see on the outside (photo 26)
Legs: Sew the bottom legs to the feet between rounds 1 and 14, make sure that the hdc are oriented on the left or right side of the feet. Pin the legs under the body at the level of round 2, pay attention to put the correct leg on the left and on the right (the hdc are towards the outside). The feet must be “splayfooted”, meaning that
they must be toes out (photo 27 abd 28). Before sewing check that your duckling can stand on his own, the feet should be parallel to the beak. If necessary adjust the position. Sew the legs.
Feather: Sew the feather on the tip of the tail (photo 29)
To finish:
• Cut two small rounds of pink felt (approximately 7 mm in diameter). Glue them underneath the eyes (photo 30).
• Put the hat on the head and tie the laces, cut the extra tails.
• Glue the wand under the wing.
