Hey Lovelies! Happy Halloween!! I hope you don’t mind that I am late with this week’s blog! I think this fun pattern will make up for it.

It’s 2 Tsum Tsum’s in one! You can turn this one inside out, so you have a normal Donald Tsum and a Halloween version. So are you ready for a turning Tsum Tsum?!

♥ Assembling Truning Tsum Tsum

Usually I use sewing pins to put amigurumi together first, but since you don’t use any stuffing for this one, that’s gonna be a bit tricky, you could try if you want to.

On both the Orange and White body, sew the beak on. On the White body, sew his shirt one, make sure to sew along all the edges, so it’s secure enough to flip it inside out. Then sew on his legs, 2 Orange at the back and the White in front. Under his Beak you will add his little bow. And last add his little hat, when you have sewn it on, make sure you use the tail end to make the small detail on top (lacking English here, help! Haha)
Now, back to the pumpkin version, since the beak is on, you can add all the lines on the body. It’s a bit hard to explain where they should go. But on the head there are 4 lines and on the body as well. Keep in mind that it should be a pumpkin, the lines on the head go from bottom to top, where they meet, and the lines on the body go from the head to the butt and meet there. Use the sewing thread and needle to do this. Or paint/draw them on if you feel that’s better/easier. When that’s done, sew the stem, hat, 4 legs and bow to the body.
Now let’s make some eyes, for the Pumpkin use brown felt, and make the eyes slightly bigger and oval, as you would normally do for Donald. And for the normal Donald, use black felt and cut out small circles. Glue those on and let dry well.

Now for the last part of assembling, put them together, the opening should be completely lined up and sew those together. I used only the back loops to do so. Now you can push one side inside the other. And if you feel like you want to other side, flip it. The first few times, this won’t go too smoothly, but after a few times, this goes easier.

I hope you had fun with this turning Tsum pattern and hope you will make it! If you did, please, show me on Twitter or Instagram with #DelinleaDIY, I’d love to see!

Happy Halloween!! and I’ll see you next week!

5 Comments

Hey Lovelies!

Do you have your crochet hook ready?! I really needed a keychain to go on my bag, it feels so boring! And then I had to the trouble of picking what I want to go on there! Oh well, I can always change it up again. So, I thought of making a Donald and Daisy Duck Ufufy! Hope you will like that as well!

For this DIY you’ll need:
♥  Yarn. I used thin acrylic yarn. White, Pink, Light Yellow, Light purple for Daisy, Light Blue and Black for Donald.
♥  Crochet hook.
♥  Stitch marker.
♥  Yarn needle.
♥  Sewing pins. (optional)
♥  Embroidery Neeldle and Black thread.
♥  Scissors.

♥  Glue (optional).

Stitches used:
CH = Chain.
SC = Single Crochet.
ST = Stitch.
BL = Back Loop.
FL = Front Loop.
Inc = Increase.
Dec = Decrease.
Slst = Slip Stitch.
(…) = Repeat the space in brackets the given number of times.
[…] = Total number of stitches.

Legs (4)
2 in White, 2 in Light Yellow.

2: (1SC, inc), 3 times. [9]
Fasten off and leave long tail for sewing. You don’t have to stuff them, just flatten.

Bow
In Pink.

1: Chain 7, insert in 2nd chain from hook, 6SC, turn. [6]
2: Chain 1, 6SC. [6]
3: SLST around the bow for a nice edge.
Fasten off and leave a long tail. Use a Yarn Needle to go to the middle of the bow and wrap the tail tightly around several times and fasten off.

Donalds Hat
Start with Light Blue.

1: 6SC in Magic Ring. [6]
2: 2SC in each st around. [12]

Assembling

Sew on the beak to the larger part of the white, just above the colored part. Cut some eyes out of black felt and glue those to both sides of the beak.
Now you know where the middle is, you can place the legs easily, use some sewing pins to make sure you potition them first, before sewing on. This way you can easily move them around until you are happy with the look. The white ones go on the colored part and the light yellow ones, go on the white part just under the colored part, sew them on.
If you made Donald, sew his hat slightly to the side of his head. If you are done sewing, pull the left over thread through the hat, so you can make his little tag. Leave it a bit longer and cut it off.
For both Daisy and Donald I gave them some fluff on the head, I just took 3 pieces of white yarn, tied a knot on one side and pulled it though the side, with a yarn needle, to the middle of the head. Make sure the knot dissapears inside the body. Cute the yarn slightly longer as you want and with the yarn needle you can untwist the yarn, so it get’s fluffy. Now you can give them the final hair cut ^^.
Time for the bow. I glued them on, but you can totally sew them on if you prefer. By Donald it goes under his beak. And with Daisy it goes on top of her head.

I hope you enjoyed this Pattern! Would love to see yours if you made it! #DelinleaDIY on Instagram/Twitter/Vero.

♥ Assembling:

To make sure you sew all parts in the right place, you can use some sewing pins to position them. When you are happy with the position, you can sew them on.
Sew the legs on to the bottom of the body, the front legs are pointing to the front. The back legs are pointing to the side.
Flatten his beak, and sew it just under the middle of the face.
Sew his bow just a bit under his beak.
For his hat, sew it on top of his head, but slightly to the side.
For the eyes you can either choose to use felt or you can embroider them on. I chose to embroider them on, cause yeah why choose the easy way haha. But which way you choose, Donald will look adorable.

I hope your Donald turned out lovely as well!
And don’t forget to share yours with the #DelinleaDIY
