ReplyDeleteHvor sætter du benene på sådan ca.??
ReplyDeleteHej Mia. Jeg må indrømme at jeg sætter dem på lidt 'på slump' som jeg lige synes det passer, så det er lidt forskelligt fra gris til gris.
ReplyDeleteMen kan se at på den sidste starter forbenene i den 3. række af '1sc in each sc'. Og der er 4-5 rækker mellem for- og bagben. Mellemrummet mellem forbenene (og bagbenene) afhænger af om du foretrækker at den står lige op ( få rækkers mellemrum - nederste billede) eller skræver mere (og dermed også har lidt bedre balance) (4-6 rækkers mellemrum - øverste billede - grisen til venstre).
Jeg plejer at sætte alle fire ben fast med knappenåle inden jeg syr dem fast, for at vurdere hvor de skal sidde.
Håber det hjælper dig lidt.
Du må meget gerne dele det endelige resultat:)
Rigtig god arbejdslyst :)
et spørgsmål mere kan det virkelig passe at der kun er 10 runder ved benene, syntes de er meget små:-)
ReplyDeleteHej Mia. Ja jeg har kun brugt 10 runder på benene. Hvis du synes at de er for korte, kan du fortsætte et par runder mere med 'en i hver'. Længden kan også afhænge lidt af hvor meget fyld du putter i. Jeg har fyldt benene godt ud.
ReplyDeleteHej igen:)
ReplyDeleteJeg har oprettet en blog, der indeholder dans, hækling og kager. Hvis du er interesseret er linket her: http://mine-3-passioner.blogspot.dk/2014/06/prsentation-af-mine-passioner.html
I det første indlæg er et billede af den første penny the pig jeg har lavet, håber at det er okay:) Jeg har efter hånden brugt din opskrift til 3 grise(snart 4) så mange tak for en fantastisk opskrift!
Hej Mia.
ReplyDeleteHyggelig blog, den glæder jeg mig til at følge. Og dejligt at du kan bruge Penny the Pig opskriften :) Du er meget velkommen til at lægge billeder op af grisene, så længe du henviser til kilden :) Er altid sjovt at se andres resultater af ens opskrifter.
Thank you for this adorable pig. I just finished it and I love it!
