Rooster knitted with knitting needles

What does such a symbol of the coming year contain? Chinese calendar? At the same time, it can be both bright and demonstrative, and elegant. But it’s not for nothing that the year is marked by fire, or otherwise red, which means it will be playful and perky, sociable, full of events and life. Therefore, the toy in the form of a rooster, which we will create with you, should be as similar as possible to the image of the coming year. Today I want to offer you a more classic, but at the same time bright model knitted cockerel

We will need:

  • red grass yarn, one skein will be enough;
  • red yarn of medium thickness, with a minimum wool content for comb;
  • yarn grass dark - of blue color, as well as sea green, one skein each;
  • straight knitting needles number four;
  • double needles number four and a half;
  • a number two hook or a needle with a large eye for connecting parts;
  • copper wire of medium thickness;
  • decorative eyes or buttons on the leg are black;
  • scissors;
  • filler, in the form of padding polyester or foamed polystyrene;

Work progress: rooster body

  • We will knit the body of the rooster into a pear shape.
  • We start knitting from the bottom up, joining together blue threads of both shades, the body of the rooster is knitted together with the head.
  • We cast on number four and a half needles simple method cast on only eleven loops and then knit in the round.
  • Now we knit in simple stockinette stitch, adding ten stitches in every second row, distributing them evenly across the knitting needles.
  • When fifty-one loops are formed on the knitting needles, you will need to knit three rows without adding loops. Next, knit four rows without changes.
  • Then we begin to decrease five loops in every fourth row of knitted fabric. We switch to a red thread, it is better to fold it in half.
  • When twenty-one loops remain on the knitting needles, we again knit three rows according to the pattern without adding or subtracting.
  • Next, we make decreases by removing five stitches evenly in one row, at the end of the row you should get sixteen.
  • We knit four more rows and, pulling the thread through all the loops, tighten them.

Attention! As we knit the rooster's body, we fill it with synthetic padding or foam polystyrene.

Rooster Comb:

  • We take yarn prepared specifically for scallops.
  • We cast on sixteen loops and knit four rows with the pattern that was used to knit the body.
  • Next, to form scallops, we knit as follows: we knit two loops, and the third and fourth together, turn the knitting and knit from the wrong side without changes. Then we knit one loop from the front side, the second and third together, unfold it again and knit without changes. Next we return to front side and knit two loops together, pass the thread through the loop and cut it. We tie the thread to the next loops and repeat the same with the middle four loops, and then with the subsequent four loops.
  • We knit the second part of the comb symmetrically, joining the two parts together so that the front stitch is on the outside and the back stitch is on the inside.
  • You can connect either with a needle or with a crochet, whichever is more convenient for you.
  • Next, we begin to sew the comb to the head, placing it from the frontal part to the occipital part, and fill it as we sew it.

Rooster wings:

  • We knit with red grass, there is no need to fill them, and we knit only two parts.
  • We cast on six loops on straight knitting needles number four and knit four rows.
  • Then in every fourth row we knit as follows: a loop from the knitting needle, an increase in a loop, and so on until the end of the row. Lastly we knit a loop from the knitting needle.
  • When there are thirty loops on the knitting needles, you need to start knitting feathers; there should be five of them, like the fingers on your hand.
  • We knit them according to the principle of scallops on a comb. Only the number of loops in each feather will be six.
  • That is, to form the first feather, we knit the first four loops without changes with the main pattern, then the fifth and sixth together. We turn the knitting over and knit the purl rows without changes. In the next front row, we knit three loops, and the fourth and fifth together; then two loops, and the third and fourth together, we continue until there are two loops left on the knitting needles, through which we pass and tighten the thread. Continue knitting according to this principle to form the remaining fingers - feathers.

Assembly:

  • Sew the top of the wings to the border of flowers on the body.
  • Cut the wire twenty centimeters long and wrap it tightly with threads of different colors, the more, the fluffier the tail. Next, we thread the thin “feathers” of the tail into the part of the body where they belong, to the middle and bend it in half. We do this with all the blanks - the “feathers” of the tail.
  • We form a leg from wire with spurs and wrap it with red threads, as for a comb, as well as the beak of a rooster. We fix the legs in their proper place.
  • Sew on buttons or glue on decorative eyes and our rooster is ready.

Rooster body

The right side starts from the center of the back. Cast on 20 stitches with purple thread and knit in regular stockinette stitch.

The second part of the body is symmetrical

For the front part, cast on 4 loops with purple thread and knit in satin stitch. In each 2nd and 4th row, add 2 loops (1 on both sides). Then in every fourth row, 1 stitch four times. Make a mark here on each edge. On the 69th row, cast off 1 loop on both sides. In the next 4, 6 rows, 1 loop nine times. Cast off the last four stitches.

Neck plumage

Use scarlet thread. Make 48 loops. Divide them also into four knitting needles. Knit in stockinette stitch. Add 8 loops in rows 4, 6, 8. After 10 rows, divide 72 loops by 9. You will get 8 feather parts, each of which must be knitted separately. In every fourth row, close one loop. Do this twice. 2 more rows once, 1 stitch each. The remaining 3 knit two rows, complete.

Rooster head plumage

We move from the top. Cast on 8 loops with dark yellow thread. Next, knit in satin stitch. In each 2nd row, increase 1 loop twice on each side. There should be 12 loops. In the eighth and tenth rows, decrease one stitch on both sides. The remainder should be eight loops. In the next fourth row, add one stitch at a time. In every second - one loop five times.

After 23 rows, make a rounding using shortened rows. In the direction from the right edge, knit 17 facial loops, fold, make one yarn over and 14 purl stitches. Mark. Roll - 1 yarn over. Knit facial loops before it. Yarn over and loop together with knit stitches. Roll up. One yarn over again, purl until the yarn over. Yarn over Knit the next loop together, purl crossed. From the mark, repeat 2 times. Cast on 20 loops on one side and knit in the round. In the fifth and tenth rows, add 8 stitches. The result should be 56 loops.

After 14 rows, divide again into several identical elements of 7 loops. Rooster feathers are knitted separately by knitting 1 stitch in each 4th row. Do this twice. Knit the remaining 3 stitches a couple more rows, then complete.

Beak

Top:

Cast on 14 stitches with yellow thread. In the 7th row, close 1 loop once on both sides, then in each 5th row, one more. Complete remaining 2 stitches. Embroider the nostrils with black thread - a couple of loop stitches.

Next, along the small left edge in the column of each of the 3 rows, knit 1 single crochet. From the mark, duplicate this four more times. Add each of the four scallops on 5 loops.

Knitting occurs in the transverse direction. Using a yellow thread, make a chain of 12 chain stitches and one more for lifting. Knit 3 rows with a single crochet. From the mark on the fourth row, knit 6 stitches. Next, knit a chain of 6 air loops and 1 for lifting. Repeat this way for 3 rows, do not double crochet. From the mark, repeat four more times.

After the front is knitted to the armholes, just like on the back, cast on 6 loops on both sides. Having knitted 6-7 cm from the armhole, begin to form the neckline: bind off the central 14 loops and then decrease 1 loop 5 times on each side. There are 31 loops left on each shoulder. At a height of 12 cm from the armholes, simultaneously close the loops (31 loops each) of the shoulder.

That’s it, the “Cockerel” sweater for the child is ready, now there is still time to knit it before the main holiday of the country - the New Year. You won’t need to run around looking for it, carve out funds for it from family budget. You can do everything yourself - knit such a wonderful, elegant, warm sweater with a cockerel that will serve your child for many years.

I suggest watching a video on how to knit a beautiful sweater with teddy bears for a 2-year-old child.
