My friend of the forest, his name is Trin, is finished.
I’m very happy with the result. Making realistic crochet animals is fun, but designing a doll like this is exciting, because I create a completely new character, like a game figure. Trin is an adventurer, travelling through the forest.
The pattern for this crochet mouse and his attributes is for sale in my shop. Trin is approximately 6,5 inch/16,5 cm tall with worsted weight yarn. The pattern is written like the free ones here and contains clear pictures of the crochet mouse in parts, different views of the finished mouse and clear instructions. The nut and acorns will be a free pattern here.
I consider Trin the first crochet animal that really represents my style. He could be in an illustration of mine.
P.S. He’s called Trin because of the mouse we tried to safe from a cat attack in Trin-Mulin in Switzerland. The mouse died.
Beautiful! He looks so eager and serious. Even his stick is beautiful! congratulations!
Thanks! The stick was just an idea and I worried how to get it curved right. But it was simple, the pipe cleaner worked perfect.
Hi, Sonja,
I am having a devil of a time completing the boots for Trin. I bought this pattern about a month ago and started it today. Breezed thru it with no problems except for the boots. I simply cannot get the grey heel to go over the front of the boot the way the picture shows. Could you please help me? I followed your directions but I may be misinterpreting the boot and heel part. HELP!!!! <3
I’ll send you an email to help
