This crochet angel is pretty easy to make. You just need to know how to do the basics and then you’re good to go! The only part that can be a little annoying is attaching all those strands of hair. But it is so worth it! Look at that thick, gorgeous hair!

I’ve named this crochet angel Elsa, because I think she looks a little like Elsa from that Disney movie. I made a ponytail with some glitter wool that I’ve found to make her sparkle a little extra.

Information

The pattern is written in US terms Any cotton yarn can be used, just make sure that the yarn matches the hook. The head and the body are made in continuous rounds, use a stitch marker. The wings are made in rows.

Head. Color off white

Start with pink.

Rnd 1) 6 sc in a magic ring (6 sc)

Rnd 2) 2 sc in each stitch. (12 sc)

Rnd 3) * 1 sc in next sc, 2 sc in next. * Repeat from *-*(18 sc)

Rnd 4) * 1 sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next. * (24 sc)

Rnd 10) *1 sc in next sc, sc2tog* (12 sc)

Rnd 11) sc2tog, repeat 6 times. (6 sc) Sew the hole closed.

How to make the hair

Now we are going to make the hair for the angel. Cut a bunch of strands, how many depends on how think you want the hair to be. I think I used about 50 strands or so. I made my strands about 12 inches, but you can make them shorter however you see fit. The more strands you make, the thicker the hair will be. Cut the strands and make them about 12 inches

Fold the strands in half. We are going to attach them on the pink part on the head. Attach the hair on the pink part. Put the hook under the stitch, then grab the hair yarn with the hook. Pull through and pull up a strand from the hair. Yarn over and make a slip stitch here and let go of the strand. Like you’re making a knot but you’re using the hook to do it.

After you have attached the hair around round 9, work your way over the rest of the pink part. If you want the hair to be thicker just attach more strands on the pink back part of the head, when you’re done make a ponytail at the top of her head.

Body, color white (18)

The body is worked from the bottom up. If you want to add a little more stability to your angel, you can add a small bag of rice or sand from row 17.

Norsk del, Norwegian part

Dette bloginnlegget inneholder affiliate links. Les mer om dette her. Denne gangen tenkte jeg at jeg skulle bare gjøre dette helt enkelt. Så istedenfor å lage 3 forskjellige blogginnlegg. så velger jeg å legge sammen den norske og den engelske oppskriften på det samme innlegget. Det sparer meg litt tid og jeg håper at det er greit for dere!

Denne heklete engelen er veldig lett og grei å lage, også for nybegynnere! Den mest tidskrevende delen synes jeg var håret, men det var så verdt det!

Denne oppskriften kan dere få her, helt gratis! Dere kan også kjøpe pdf’en for en billig penge på strikkoteket! Da får dere mønsteret med litt bilder som gjør det lettere å hekle engelen.

Informasjon om denne oppskriften

Det kan brukes all slags bomullsgarn til dette mønsteret, bare pass på at du velger en heklekrok som passer til garnet. Hodet og kroppen er heklet i spiralrunder og vingene er heklet i rader.

Hode, farge off white (08)

Hekles i spiralrunder. Husk markeringstråd.

Begynn med off white.

Rnd 11) 2 fm sm hele runden, gjenta totalt 6 ganger. (6 fm)

La hullet være åpent.

Håret

Nå skal vi lage håret til engelen. Klikk opp tråder på ca. 30 cm, hvor mange du klipper opp kommer an på hvor tykt du vil at håret skal være. Jeg tror jeg brukte ca 40-50 stk. “Brett” tråden i to. Tråden skal festes på den rosa delen på hodet. Før heklekroken under masken og hent opp en tråd som skal bli hår. Lag ett kast med tråden og dra den igjennom og slipp den. Akkurat som om du lager en knute men man bruker heklekroken til hjelp.

Fest hår på hele den rosa delen. Dersom du vil ha tykkere hår kan disse festes på bakhodet. Lag en hestehale på toppen av hodet når du er ferdig.

Kropp, farge hvit (18)

Denne delen hekles i spiralrunder. Husk markeringstråd.
