Materials Needed:
- Yarn (100% mercerized cotton recommended for less peeling or fraying, but any cotton yarn is fine)
- 3.25 mm crochet hook
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
Pattern Instructions:
Start with a Slip Knot:
- Make a slip knot, leaving a long tail for sewing the antlers to the moose head.
- Chain 11.
Row 1:
- Begin a single crochet in the second stitch from the hook and continue each stitch across, leaving you with 10 single crochets.
- Chain 1 and turn.
Rows 2-3:
- Perform 10 single crochets back across, starting in the first single crochet.
- Repeat for a total of 3 rows.
- Chain 1 and turn your work after each row.
Creating the First Antler Point:
- Slip stitch in the first two single crochets.
- In the third stitch, perform a single crochet.
- Chain 4.
- Half double crochet in the second chain from the hook and in the next two chains.
- Join back to the base with 2 single crochets.
Second and Third Antler Points:
- Chain 5 for the second point, then half double crochet back down the chain, and secure with single crochets to the base.
- Chain 6 for the third point, following the same steps as before.
Large Antler Point:
- Chain 8, then half double crochet back down these chains.
- Secure with single crochets to the base.
- Repeat for another large point mirroring the first on the opposite side.
Complete Other Side:
- Repeat the process of creating smaller antler points but in reverse order.
- Work your way from longest to shortest chains, half double crocheting back down each chain and securing with single crochets to the base.
Finish Antler and Add Stability:
- Single crochet up the back of the antler (back loop only to create a ridge for rigidity), starting from the base and working upwards. Do 10 single crochets.
- Cut the yarn, leave a tail and weave in the ends to secure.
- Use the long initial tail to sew the antlers onto the moose head.
