00:00Let's learn how to crochet a pinwheel.

00:03The pinwheel is made by crocheting four veins

00:06in different colors,

00:07and then assembling them into the pinwheel shape.

00:11Start with a magic ring,

00:13then crochet four individual veins

00:15using four different colors.

00:17You may choose any of the four colors

00:19for the initial magic ring.

00:22First, make eight single crochet in the magic ring.

00:26Wrap the yarn around your left hand.

00:28Make a ring on your middle finger.

00:30Pull the right edge of this loop off of your middle finger,

00:34insert hook into the ring, grab the yarn,

00:37make a chain stitch to secure the circle.

00:40Adjust your hand position,

00:42then make eight single crochet stitches into this loop.

00:45Insert your hook in the ring.

00:50One,

00:53two,

00:54three,

00:58four,

01:00five,

01:01six,

01:03seven,

01:04eight.

01:05Starting from the V-shape under the hook,

01:06count backward to verify if eight single crochets

01:09have been completed,

01:10then tighten the starting tail.

01:11Next, we'll crochet the pinwheel's veins.

01:12Next, we'll crochet the pinwheel's veins.

01:13First, observe this completed piece.

01:17Each vein requires four rows worked in rows,

01:19turned after each row.

01:20Continue using the starting color without

01:22working on it.

01:23The bottom line,

01:24two,

01:25three,

01:26three,

01:27five,

01:28four,

01:29three,

01:30six,

01:31seven,

01:32seven,

01:33seven,

01:34seven,

01:35seven,

01:36eight,

01:37seven,

01:38eight,

01:39six,

01:40seven,

01:41seven,

01:42eight,

01:43six,

01:44seven,

01:45Continue using the starting color without cutting the yarn.

01:48Make a slip stitch in the first stitch.

01:54Yarn over and pull through all loops on the hook.

02:00Tighten the slip stitch firmly.

02:03Next chain 1.

02:05Make a single crochet in the first stitch.

02:13Use a stitch marker in the single crochet to easily locate it later.

02:23Then make an increase in the next stitch.

02:32So now we have made 3 stitches in row 1.

02:37Next is row 2.

02:40Chain 1 as the turning chain.

02:43Open the piece.

02:46Then locate the first stitch from the previous row.

02:50Insert the hook into both legs of the V-stitch.

02:55Make 2 single crochets into that same stitch.

02:58This is called a single crochet increase.

03:05Increase the stitch marker in the very first stitch.

03:17Next stitch, make a single crochet.

03:21Next, make an increase at the stitch marker from the previous row.

03:42We have now completed row 2.

03:44Next is row 3.

03:47Chain 1 and turn your piece.

03:52Make a single crochet at the first stitch.

03:58Place the stitch marker.

04:05Next 4 stitches we also make single crochet.

04:08So we will make 5 single crochet in row 3.

04:151, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5.

04:37Next is row 4.

04:39Chain 1 and turn your piece.

04:44Make an increase at the first stitch.

04:52Next 3 stitches make single crochet.

04:571, 2, 3, 4, 5.

05:07The last stitch we will make an increase.

05:09Remove the stitch marker.

05:12Make an increase.

05:20We have now completed one vein.

05:22Finishing on the wrong side of the work.

05:25Leaving a long tail about 10 centimeters.

05:28Cut the yarn.

05:33This is the first vein we have just made.

05:38After crocheting, the wrong side is facing us, so we need to flip the piece to have the

05:42right side facing ourselves before working on the second vein.

05:48This is the right side.

05:53Now we'll crochet the second vein in the next 2 single crochet stitches.

06:01Take a new color of yarn.

06:04First wrapping the new color on your left hand.

06:07Then position the completed piece on the new working yarn.

06:14Insert your hook into the next V-shaped stitch.

06:19Grab the new color and pull through a loop.

06:24Chain one to secure.

06:28Insert your hook in the same stitch.

06:33Place the yarn tail on your hook.

06:38Make a single crochet.

06:44Gently tighten the new yarn tail as you go.

06:49Next stitch, make an increase.

06:54Also place the yarn tail on your hook.

07:09This is the first row of the second vein.

07:13We have made three stitches.

07:16Mark the very first stitch.

07:24Let's take a look.

07:26One, two, three.

07:28Next is row two.

07:30The crochet method for the next few rows follows exactly the same pattern as the first vein.

07:36Chain one is the turning chain.

07:38Turn the piece.

07:39First stitch, make an increase.

07:55Next, make a single crochet.

08:02Next, remove the stitch marker and make an increase.

08:09Next is row three.

08:23Chain one and turn the piece.

08:26Make a single crochet in each stitch.

08:30Make a single crochet into the first stitch and mark it.

08:39One, two, three, four, five.

09:02Next is row four.

09:04Chain one and turn the piece.

09:05Make an increase.

09:08Make an increase.

09:15Three single crochet.

09:25An increase.

09:36This is the second vein we just completed.

09:40Leaving a long tail about 10 centimeters,

09:45cut the yarn.

09:46The yarn tail from the starting stitches

09:48can also be trimmed once it's secured within the stitches.

09:55Next, flip to the right side

09:56and continue crocheting the third vein.

09:59We'll crochet the third vein in the next two single crochet stitches.

10:07The crochet method for the third and fourth veins

10:11is identical to the second vein, but with different colors.

10:15You can complete these sections independently.

10:29Until next time,

10:43working on children here

10:49This has been the final vein,

10:51which islogan-story.

12:10After completing the four vanes, let's assemble the pinwheel.

12:13This is the wrong side, where you can see the horizontal bars of the magic ring's single crochet stitches.

12:23With the wrong side facing you, use a tapestry needle to thread all five yarn tails back through the center hole of the magic ring.

13:03Adjust the shape as needed.

13:16Then flip it over. Divide the yarn tails into two groups.

13:22Tie them in knots to secure and trim off the excess.

13:33Finally, glue the rotating bearing to the back of the pinwheel.

14:01Take the rotating bearing from the kit.

14:05Attach its thin side to the back of the pinwheel and the thick side to the chicken's hand.

14:10Apply glue to both the bearing and the pinwheel's back.

14:15While gluing, hold the bearing firmly with your fingers to prevent rotation.

14:31After 10 to 15 seconds, press them together securely.

14:37Reapply pressure multiple times over the next few minutes to ensure strong adhesion.

14:50Once fully set, you'll achieve this result.

14:55The pinwheel spins freely now.

14:57Next, we will attach the securely glued pinwheel to the chick's hand.

15:03Special attention should be paid here.

15:07Avoid positioning the pinwheel too far inward, as this may cause contact with the chick's body and hinder its rotation.

15:14Aim to attach it closer to the outer edge, maintaining clearance from the body, maintaining clearance from the body.

15:23Here is my completed sample for reference.

15:31The same principle applies to the egg shell version, with additional care needed during assembly to prevent contact with the egg shell edges.

15:41After determining the positioning, apply glue evenly on both the rotating bearing and the chick's hand.

15:47Wait 10 to 15 seconds before bonding them together, then gently press with fingers.

16:07For optimal adhesion, lay the assembly flat to dry.

16:22You can use a yarn ball to support the pinwheel and prevent slippage.

16:28Repress the joint several times after a few minutes to ensure firm bonding.

16:36Test the pinwheel's rotation to check for body obstruction, making timely position adjustments if needed.

16:44Repeat the same process to attach the other pinwheel.
