Fizzgig

Fizzgig with pattern!



Well after taking a trip down memory lane with The Labyrinth I, of course, had to watch The Dark Crystal too.

So naturally with my movie all set up my fingers were itching for another crochet project. Turned out that the project was a little more involved, but still quite fun. (By fun I mean I was about to pull my hair out getting all of his to look right).

Fizzgig is by far one of the most adorable creatures that Jim Henson created. I mean, part dog, giant mouth, cute temperament, and what amounts to a large ball of fuzz? If I could adopt one I would... but since I can't I made one instead.

Anyway who cares about me blabbing on (I mean really, do you seriously follow this blog because of my creative writing skills?) I demand PICTURES!

Fizzgig Untested Pattern

Body:

(Make these stitches looser than you would normally)

Magic circle with 6 sc in the center

Increase to 12

Inc ever other stitch for three rows

Increase every 3^rd stitch for 1 row

Sc 10, inc, sc 10, inc, for 2 rows

4=rows

Ch 25, attach back to the base about half way across with a sc (follow the slack around the circle, this will be the opening for his mouth)

5 = rows

Sc 10, decrease, sc 10, dec for 3 rows

Sc 5, dec, sc 5, dec for 2 rows

Dec  every 3^rd stitch for 2 rows

Dec until closed.

Mouth:

In red; crochet a basic flat oval with an 8 ch base (more accurate patterns easily found online than what I would be able to describe). Increase in size until it more or less matches the size of the mouth opening. Attach to the mouth opening, but don’t forget to stuff before you close! Only put polyfill in the top and bottom sections, do not fill completely as this will prevent his mouth from closing.

Little feet – Optional (usually you just see him as a giant fluff ball)

Ch 40, link ch 40 to ch 1

2=rows

Ch 4 and link directly across (create a narrow oval with line through it)

Working on half the oval at a time: 1=row*

Using same “ch 4 and attach” separate the half into three sections

Sc around the new thirds and decrease each row until you have a point. Fasten off or slip stitch back to the next opening. Repeat for all three toes.

Repeat from * for the second foot. (they will be very close together, feel free to make each foot individually by skipping the initial large oval).

Attach to the bottom of his body so his toes peak out.

Detail time!

Sc 1 row of dark brown around his mouth. Cut out off white felt in a tooth pattern and sew to the top and bottom of his mouth. Also cut a tiny tooth set for the back of his mouth and sew on. Using black felt cut out his “throat” but remember the little red dangly guy!

Follow the same general procedure for his eyes and nose. As for his fluffiness  you will be looping dozens of 2”-3” chunks of yarn through the loose stitches all over his body. Make sure you’ve attached his eyes and nose before you fluff up his face. I had a 4ply yarn that I separated each strand apart to give him extra oomph. Kind of looks like he got a perm, but at least he’s properly fluffed!

(Pictures to help you understand what the heck I'm talking about)

Broomstick Lace

This is a really pretty vintage stitch good for just about anything you can think of to crochet.
I posted this video that Naztazia made here as :
1- an easy way to find it.
2- so others could see it and learn the stitch too. ^^

Socks!

Another vintage pattern from the American Thread Company -
One Size fits All (well, so they say. But use your own judgement and alter the length of the sock for the height of the “all” that you’re making them for. You could end up with crocheted hip waders)
MATERIALS: American Thread Company “Dawn” Knitting Worsted, 4 oz. Black, 3 oz. Scarlet.
Plastic crochet hook size J, or size you need to obtain the specified stitch gauge.
GAUGE: 3 sts = 1″

SOCKS: Starting at toe, with black, ch 4, join to form ring, ch 3, work 11 dc in ring, join in top of ch-3.
Rnd 2: * Skip 1 sc, 5 sc in next sc, repeat from * around.
Rnds 3 & 4: * Skip 2 sc, 1 sc in next st, 3 sc in next st, 1 sc in next st, repeat from * around.
Rnd 5: * Skip 2 sc, 1 sc in next st, 5 sc in next st, 1 sc in next st, repeat from * around.
Rnds 6 & 7: * Skip 2 sc, 1 sc in each of next 2 sts, 3 sc in next st, 1 sc in each of next 2 sts, repeat from * around.
Repeat Rnds 6 and 7 until there are 11 black stripes, skip 2 sc, sl st in next st, with black ch 12 loosely for heel section, skip 3 points, join ch, cut yarn.
Rnd 21: Skip 1 st, * 1 sc in each of next 2 sts of ch, 5 sc in next ch, 1 sc in each of next 2 sts, skip 2 sts. Repeat from * around – 15 points.
Rnd 22: * 1 sc in each of next 3 sc, 3 sc in next st, 1 sc in each of next 3 sc, skip 2 sc, repeat from * around.
Repeat Rnd 22 alternating colors for 18 stripes or desired length to top.
HEEL: Attach black at start of ch, work 1 sc in each st of ch. Place a marker, work 12 sc on other side of heel, place a marker, work 1 rnd even.
Next Rnd: Work a dec each side of marker – 4 decs in rnd. Repeat last 2 rnds once.
Next Rnd: 2 sc tog all around, cut yarn leaving a 12″ length. Thread through sts, draw tog, fasten securely.

Round 3: Ch 1 (does not count as sc), *1 sc in same st as sl st, sk next hdc, 5 dc in next dc, ck next hdc, 1 sc in each of next 6 sc; repeat from * around 5 times, ending with 1 sc in each of next 5 sc on final repeat instead of next 6 sc; sl st in starting sc.

Round 5: Ch 2 (does not count as dc), 1 dc in same sc as sl st, *1 dc in each of next 3 st, (making 1st ear) ch 11, sl st in 2nd ch from hook, 1 sc in next ch, 1 hdc in next ch, 1 dc in each of next 2, ch, bring up loop through middle of dc just worked, [yo and bring through both loops on hook (dc inc made; this is equivalent to working 1 sc in middle of dc and similar to linked dc or ldc)] 3 times (equivalent of 3/dc increase but preventing large hole in ch due to so many st), 1 dc in each of next 2 ch, 1 hdc in each of next 2 ch, 1 sc in last ch, sl st in top of last dc made before beginning ear (1st ear complete), 1 dc in same st as dc with sl st, 1 dc in each of next 2 dc (top of head made), (making 2nd ear) ch 14, sl st in 2nd ch from hook, 1 sc in next ch, 1 hdc in next ch, 1 dc in next ch, 4/dc dec across next 4 ch (see 4/dc dec in Round 1), 1 dc in each of next 2 ch, 1 hdc in each of next 2 ch, 1 sc in final ch, sl st in top of last dc made before beginning 2nd ear (2nd ear complete), 1 dc in same st as dc with sl st, 1 dc in each of next 3 st, 1 hdc in next st, sk next st, [1 sc in next st], sk next st, 1 hdc in next st; repeat from * around 5 times, sl st across starting ch 2 into starting dc; bind off. Weave in ends. If using seed beads for eyes, they may be sewed on or they may be glued in place during stiffing. Experiment with eye position before securing beads; eyes lower on the head (halfway point) tend to make critters appear more lovable and endearing; eyes higher on the head (3/4 point) ten to make critters appear more humorous and cheerful.
