Yarn

Being in Canada, these were the specific brands and colours I was able to find and use for my project:

Yellow = Craft Smart Value, Ginger, 198g, 324m, 100% acrylic, Medium weight (4)

Red = Loops & Threads, Impeccable, Cherry, Medium (4)

White = Loops & Threads, Impeccable, White, Medium (4)

Using yellow yarn and 3.75mm hook.

Leave 6-12 inches of yarn before starting magic ring.

R1: mr 6 [6]

Before pulling the ring tight,  fold the end of the tail in half. Leave 1-2 inches for the loop, then tie a dead knot. Feed the hanging loop  through the magic ring, pull ring closed. The dead knot should be "inside".
R2: inc x6 [12]
R3: (inc, sc) x6 [18]
R4-5: sc x18 [18]
R6: (invdec, sc) x6 [12]

Stuff or place bell inside.
R7: invdec x6 [6]
R8-9: sc x6 [6]

Do not finish off, we will continue here in the next section.

Arms (make 3)

Using white yarn and 3.75mm hook.

R1: mr 4 [4]
R2: (inc, sc) x2 [6]
R3: (inc, sc) x3 [9]

Pin one arm under each red bulge in the front.

Pin the last arm in the back, in the middle, under the red bar.

Sew in place when you are happy with the positioning.

Version 1: Embroidery

--> Use white yarn
--> Use red yarn

• Cut a reasonable amount of yarn you are comfortable working with (~1m)

• Start with the dotted line going into the top-left hole. Pull the yarn all the way through so the length of the yarn tail is similar to the dotted line. Make sure you cover the yarn end as you continue.

• The tail (--) of the arrow indicates the hole to thread your needle from the last arrow from back to front of the plastic mesh

• Follow the numbered arrow to it's head (>), then thread through that hole from front to back.

• Hopefully the pattern becomes clearer after you have done a few rounds.

• Once you reach arrow 15, make sure you are working from back to front of the SAME whole as arrow 13.

• NOTE: The last line of the chart on the left is the SAME as the first row of the chart on the right. (Arrow 68 is repeated in the chart.

• When you run out of yarn, thread the remaining yarn under a few existing lines you've embroidered (on the back side). Cut the excess yarn.

• Cut a new piece and repeat what you've done with the dotted line to secure the tail.

I have some additional tips on how to get started in this video.

Please let me know if there are other things I should include if I record a new one short tutorial.

Outside Edge

Using the white yarn, start at one end of the white section then make your way around to the other end. On the corners, go through the hole twice. You will need about twice the length of yarn.

For the red section, repeat the same procedure as white but when you reach the bottom of the mesh, place a toothpick in between so the loops are bigger.

Wavy Detail

Hold the piece with the Right Side facing you, with the toothpick on top. Remove the toothpick one stitch at a time as you work into the loop.

Using a 2.5mm hook, sl on hook, then work from the rightmost loop:

R1: sc x10, ch x2, turn [10]

R2: dc x3, hdc, sc, sl, sc, dc, hdc, sc [10]

Finish off and hide tail. Feel free to go over any other plastic that may still be poking out.
