Crochet peacock applique

Beautiful knitted decoration for children's clothing! Crocheting a peacock is very simple. This is a bright and unusual addition to any sweater, knitted dress or tunic.

For knitting, you need to use the natural colors of this bird - blue, yellow, cyan and, of course, a thin crochet hook (2.5 mm).

We start knitting from the breast. We cast on 10 air loops, which we then knit with a double crochet stitch.

From the last loop of the row we immediately knit 3 stitches per 1 stitch to make this end rounded. We continue to tie the chain st./s 1 n from below.

Having knitted to the limit, this time we act differently: we finish the row and start a new one from the established mark.

Now “at the turn” we knit 2 stitches from each loop with 1 n (repeat 7-8 times).

In total we knit about 6-7 such semi-oval rows, leaving one end straight.

This flat side will become the place for the formation of the tail, which we first knit with yellow yarn (3 sts/s 2 n from one loop with a skip in one stitch).
The second row of the tail is again occupied by blue yarn, from which this time single crochets are knitted.

The blue thread has to be worked only once and only in the third row of the lush peacock tail. Through one column you should pull out 3 loops at once, alternating them with yarn overs, and then tighten them together. This creates a “tubercle”, which in general should consist of 7-8 loops (including yarn overs).

After each such “tubercle” knit 2 stitches. P.

It is under these loops in the next row that 4 stitches are knitted with 1 n, again making the distance between them 2 in. P.

The tail is again completed by “tubercles” of yellow thread, which are knitted from 2 intermediate chain stitches of the previous row.

We knit the head in a circular stitch, st./s 1 n. We make the beak and crest from air loops.

At the end of each feather of the tuft we make a circle (connecting the 8th and 5th loops).

We knit the neck directly from the head, after which we sew it to the body of the bird.

We do the same with the paws, only they should be made a little thinner, so we knit a chain with a double stitch. n.

If desired, the tail can be decorated with beads or sequins, but such a bird is already ready to become a decoration.
