Lord Ganesha


I'm a big fan of Lord Ganesha, have HIS photo in all the rooms. Made this small Ganesha for grandsons. Though I got idea from a site, changed a lot as I felt it right.
In HIS left hand, Ganesha is carrying his favourite food " modak"/ " kolakattai".

I had earlier made for myself a bigger Ganesha standing on a pedestal, made his " vahanam" -               " moonjoor" also on it.

Lord Vishnu

First my grandson't request was if I can make Lord Vishnu with 4 hands. Then slowly came other request, Lord should have long black hair, namam on the forehead, mace in one hand, flower in another hand, 3rd one with chakra and 4th hand conch shell.

Only thing modern Lord Vishnu, Hanuman and rishi, as when I tried to make like veshti, it didn't come out properly, tried it 3-4 times, then made them modern 21st C Gods with pants

Made the Lord Vishnu with my own idea after seeing his photo.

Jai Veer Hanuman

This Hanuman is my own idea by looking at some photos in the net.
Legs 2
For the Hanuman to stand after doing MR with 8 sc
R1- 2 sc in each sc ( 16sc)
R2- (1 sc, 2 sc in next) rep. till the end ( 24 )
R3- sc in back loops only
R4- sc in both loops
at this point, I inserted a plastic bottle lid, by cutting it to fit it
next few rows was sc in each
then I decreased about 3 sc in next row,
sc in next row
again decreased 3 sc in next row evenly placed and continued till the length I wanted

After doing both legs to the desired length, I joined in the middle and sc around both legs together
3-4 rows sc around , then I increased 3/4 sc evenly around for the next 2 rows
continued with sc around for 4/5 rows, then started decreasing evenly placed in each row till 12 sc were left

Of course, as you do the legs, start stuffing to get the shape, then continue stuffing once you join and do the body.

Arms 2
I think I started with MR with 6 sc
then increased in each sc
then every 2 sc increased to get 18 sc, continued with 18 sc for the next 5/6 rows
then I decreased 3 sc I think evenly placed
next row, did 6 sc with both loops, in the remaining 6 sc in back loops hdc
I continued with 6 sc,  hdc in 6 for 3 more rows
then sc around for another 4 rows I think
arms I didn't stuff much, so it can bend

Head
MR 6 sc
R1 inc. in each sc (12)
R 2- sc 1, increase rep. around ( 18)
R3-sc 2, increase - rep. around ( 24)
R4- sc 3, inc.- rep. around ( 30)
R5- sc 4, inc. -rep. around (36)
R6- R7  sc 36
R8- sc 5, inc. -rep. around (42)
R9- sc 42
R10- sc 5 , dec. - rep around (36)
R11- sc 4, dec. - rep around (30)
R 12- sc 3, dec.- rep. around ( 24)
R 13- sc 2, dec.- rep. around (18)
R 14- sc 1, dec. -rep. around (12)
R15- dec. in alternate (9)
stuff well to get the shape.

for hair, with black, I made ch of 12/ 14 alternately, stitched it around
On the fore-head with red thread made the " namam"
lips did with red thread
for the mouth bulging on both sides - made 2
with orange made MR with  6 sc, then sc in back loop of each, FO
I stuffed it, stitched on both sides

For the mace/ gada"
I made like a small ball, then instead of FO, I continued to crochet in 5/ 6 sc stuffing lightly to the length I needed
I made the crown, then small mountain in his left hand.

Joined the parts
for tail, I made MR with 4/5 sc, then sc around to the length I wanted, stitched it at the back.

Lord Krishna

this is the basic doll which I made from the
https://talesoftwistedfibers.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/amy-amigurumi-doll-free-patternrevised-26may2013-tales-of-twisted-fibers.pdf


so, the credit should go to the person concerned. Only thing, I didn't follow everything like wig, skirt and so on. I made the legs, body, arms, sleeve cap and for Krishna's head, made in blue. Then, I made the vest for Krishna in blue,  made 1 ch to turn, which isn't counted as stitch in each row
made 13 ch, then in 2nd ch. from hook, made sc, then sc till the end.
then 12-13 rows with sc, then joined it.
 then my daughter-in-law said, that grandson has the idea of Krishna with blue hands, with hair and not crown, so changed it, made sleeve addition in blue, attached it.
the hair was first done with ch.23, sc in 2nd ch till the end, then sc in 1st sc, 3 ch, sl st in 2, sl st in the same st., sc in next st.
then row, same way, after that increased the no. of chains every other row, sl st and rest same, then after doing till about middle ch. increasing no. of ch, sl st., then after that reducing the no. of ch. every other row and repeated till the end.
then sew it to head, then those portions that didn't cover, made a long chain of about 250 ch, then attached it around to cover the head !, attached the feather.
hope now my grandson will like this !

Then I slipped the vest/ top on top of the body and stitched it all around to secure it. Then I attached the sleeve cap to arm, then attached the arm to the body.

For Krishna's pant/ dhoti in yellow, made 23 ch, sc in 2nd ch from hook and sc till the end ( 22sc)
2 rows of single crochet, then
1sc in 1st sc, increased 1 sc, made 10 more sc and on the 10th made 2 sc( 13 sc)
made 2 rows of 13 sc
then increased 1 sc in both ends in the next row ( 15 sc)
then made 4 rows of sc
last row, made 1 ch, sc in 1st sc, then *3 dc in the same st., skip 2 sc, sc in next st.*,rep. till the end., then joined the pant with the top first all around, then joined the centre, then each leg separately, then stitched the last row over the shoes, so it stays firm ( or you know how kids are, they'll try to open it !)
Then i made a little crown with 16 ch, then 15 sc in 1st row
dec. 1 st. in each end in each row from 3rd row, till there was 1., then sc all around.
Krishna's eyes, lips, namam on the forehead, I embroidered. Made a small peacock feather using thin thread. First stitched the crown, then stitched the feather just behind the crown to finish it.
This made for my grandson, as he loves Krishna !
