The Triplets

 Ch 2 with grey or start with a magic ring.

1. 6 sc in the 1st ch or in the magic ring, 1 sl in the 1st sc (= 6 sc)

2. 2 sc in each sc (= 12 sc)

3. 2 sc in every 2nd sc (= 18 sc)

4. 2 sc in every 6th sc (= 21 sc)

5. - 8. 21 sc

9. Crochet every 6th and 7th st together (= 18 sc)

Stuff the head.

10. 3 x (2 sc, crochet 2 st together), 6 sc (= 15 sc)

11. 3 x (1 sc, crochet 2 st together), 6 sc (= 12 sc)

12. 3 x (crochet 2 st together), 6 sc (= 9 sc)

Stuff the head further.

13. 3 x (crochet 2 st together, 1 sc) (= 6 sc)

Pull the thread through the remaining 6 st and tighten. Weave in the end. 

Sew the head onto the body, ensuring the back of the head is parallel with the back (see photo). The decreases from rounds 10 to 12 should face downwards.

Embroider a nose and mouth with light pink, using the photos as a guide for placement. Embroider the beads for the eyes between rounds 7 and 8, leaving 3 st free between the eyes. First sew the eyes in the correct place, then insert the needle from one eye to the other and pull the thread so that the head indents slightly, repeat this once more and secure the thread. Weave in the end.

Attach with grey to the back of the mouse at the level of round 9.

1. Ch 10

2. Skip the 1st ch from the hook and crochet 1 sl in each ch (= 9 sl)

The sweaters of the triplets are crocheted in back and forth rows. 

The sweater is crocheted in multiple parts, see image.

Part 1

Ch 11 with blue/green/pink.

1. 1 sc in each ch from the 2nd ch from the hook (= 10 sc)

2. - 9. 10 sc, ch 1 at the end of each row and turn.

Part 2

1. 2 sc, ch 4 (leave the rest of the st unworked)

2. 1 sc in each st from the 2nd sc from the hook (= 5 sc)

3. - 9. 5 sc, ch 1 at the end of each row and turn.

Fasten off. Now attach the yarn to the last st of row 9 of part 1. 

From here, you crochet part 3.

1. 2 sc, ch 4

2. 1 sc in each st from the 2nd sc from the hook (= 5 sc)

3. - 9. 5 sc, ch 1 at the end of each row and turn.

Fasten off.

Now you will crochet the sleeves (part 4 and 5) along the sides. 

Attach the yarn again at the level of row 4 of part 1.

1. Make 10 sc along the side (1 sc in each end of a row)

2. - 4. 10 sc

Repeat this on the other side of part 1 for the other sleeve. Fold your work in half and sew the sides of your sweater closed according to the instructions in the image. You can now put the sweater on and sew the back closed.
