Free pattern: plane

Do you like this plane but think it would be way better with a propeller? Then today is your lucky day! Here is the pattern to this plane, but with propeller.

If you don’t understand the abbreviations used, you can find them in my faq. If you want to make this plane without any sewing, here is a video that shows how to attach the wings as you crochet the body.

Materials

  • 4 colors yarn (I like to use 100% cotton yarn like Scheepjes Larra, but you can use any yarn, as long as it matches your hook):
    • white
    • main color
    • wing color (if you want, this can be the same as the main color
  • crochet hook (I used 2,5 because it matches my yarn size)
  • darning needle
  • scissors
  • filling

  1. You are missing a ‘sc 8 ch1 turn’ right before the dec in your written instructions. Had to watch the video to figure out why mine came out wrong. 😅

  2. My wings keep coming out crooked with one slanting up and the other down. How can I fix this? I followed the video tutorial
