Leave a long end for sewing on the head and cut the thread.
Tail
For the tail, I take a brown thread, make several
turns around the fingers, as shown in the 1st photo.
Then I wrap the same thread around the edge of all the threads on the hand (2nd photo), make a knot and pass the same thread through all the wrapped loops and also make a knot (3rd photo).
I cut the thread, leaving a long end for sewing.
Sew the tail on the back between the 13-14th rows of the body (4th photo).
Assembly
1) Sew the head to the body and tighten the eyes in a way that is convenient for you.
2) Sew the bridge of the nose between rows 8-21 of the head.
3) Sew the ears between rows 21-22 of the head, stepping back 5 sc on each side from the bridge of the nose.
4) Embroider the eyebrows between rows 16-17 of the head, also embroider the eyelashes and nostrils.
Crochet overalls for our horse
Make on 60 chain stitches.
R1. 60 hdc
R2. 9 hdc 1 inc (х6) (66)
R3. 10 hdc 1 inc (х6) (72)
In the next row we knit a hole for the tail.
R4. 1 hdc, 5 ch (skip 5 hdc in the previous row), with 7 hdc continue crochet to the end of the row 66 hdc (72)
R5-12. 72 hdc (8 rows)
Next, we form the legs. On each side, in the middle, we count 4 loops and sew them together from the wrong side, forming the legs. We cut the thread, hide the end.
In the front, in the middle, we count 12 loops and crochet 12 hdc 5 rows.
Next, we tie the edge of the jumpsuit and crochet the straps:
33 ch, step back from the edge 10 ch, forming a loop for the button and with 11 ch we crochet 23 sc.
We repeat the same with the second strap.
Sew on the buttons and our jumpsuit is ready.
Your horse is ready!
