Georgie – mini monsters
© DrunkenAuntWendyDesigns
I read this book when I was in 6th grade. I’ve been reading crazy stuff for a long time. Had to read the book before I watched the 80s mini-series.
There are patterns for both versions of Pennywise. You can make them both.
Materials
Yarn in Yellow, Green, Beige and Brown
Red Marker
12 mm safety eyes
Size E crochet hook
Large eye blunt needle
Polyfiberfill
Abbreviations
SC – Single Crochet
Ch- Chain
INC – SC 2 stitches into same stitch
DEC – SC two stitches together
Gauge – Gauge is not important for this project, but if you are making it from the kit, you should use the right size needle to ensure you don’t run out of yarn.
Notes:
Parentheses indicate a repeat. Repeat the stitches in the parentheses for the number of times indicated.
The bracketed number [] is the number of stitches at the end of each row.
I spread my increases out so there isn’t a seam on the finished piece. If you do not like this method, you can do regular increases.
Crochet section is worked in partly in the round. Use a stitch marker or a scrap piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each row. Then you don’t have to count every row. Do not join unless instructed to.
