Welcome to my crochet teddy for plane mobile pattern. This is the second pattern of a series in making a plane mobile. This is the finished plane from last week.
And this week I’ll be showing how to make the crochet teddy that will look like this.
There’s also a video tutorial for this pattern available on my YouTube channel at Crochet Teddy for Plane Mobile Tutorial.

This pattern will be using UK terminology. If you would like to view the US version go to Crochet Teddy for Plane Mobile Pattern (US Version).
I would like to thank American Yarns who sponsored the posts for the plane mobile and provided me with the wool. American Yarns is an online store that ships to Australia and New Zealand, providing American yarn brands, such as Red Heart, Bernat and Caron, that are often difficult to find in Australia.

To Make Up
Weave in ends. Embroider a mouth and nose on the muzzle.
Embroider a white dot on each eye.
Stitch the muzzle to the bottom middle of one of the heads.
Attach the eyes above the muzzle as shown.
Sew the inner ears to the bottom of the ears.
With wrong sides together and starting just under the arms stitch the 2 body pieces together, working around the arm and up around the head. Once you start on the 2nd arm put filling in the head then continue around the arm and down the body.
Put filling in each leg once you have stitched around it and put a small amount of filling in the body when you have a small gap left to stitch, then finish stitching the body together.
To make the body bend to sit in the plane, I work a row of stitching across the middle of the body through both body pieces.
And here’s the finished crochet teddy with a scarf.
I hope that you’ve enjoyed the pattern, be sure to come back next week and we’ll put it all together to make a plane mobile.
