“PYRUS AMIGURUMI” CROCHET PATTERN BY HILARIA FINA
También disponible en: Español
AQUÍBeing “la pera” (the pear), “la repera” (the re-pear) or ”la pera limonera” (the lemon tree pear), is a Spanish language expression that means to be the “maximum” you can imagine, positive or negatively. It could be used with people, objects or situations. It could refer, depending of context, to any attribute: for instance being very weird, being very lazy, being very good, being very complicated, being very skillful etc. If you are “la pera”, you are fabulous, you are great, you are terrific. Aren’t you that? Sure you are.
INSPIRATION + DESIGN
Basket is full of fresh fruits ready to eat, let’s start having a delicious limonera pear. We have it the very same colours offered by mother nature both red and green. For those that may prefer a minimalistic and monochromatic deco we offer a more conceptual version in neutral colours. Pyrus pear in silver will be first in the list.

STITCHES AND TECHNIQUES USED
MAGIC RING (»here)
Wrap yarn around two fingers, leaving 7cm long tail. Insert hook right to left under the two rows and pick the strand up (the one that leads to the skein), pulling the yarn back under the two rows, YO and pull through the loop (do not count as first stitch). Keep working the following stitches into the ring. Remove the ring from your fingers and pull the tail end to tight the ring.
SLIP KNOT
With about 15 cm of yarn, make a loop. Insert your hook through the center of the loop, draw the end of the yarn through the loop, and pull on the tail to tighten.
CHAIN (ABBREVIATION ch)
YO and pull the yarn through the loop on the hook.
SLIP STITCH (ABBREVIATION: sl st)

SINGLE CROCHET (ABBREVIATION: sc)

HALF DOUBLE CROCHET (ABBREVIATION: hdc)
YO, insert hook into the stitch, YO and pull the yarn through the stitch (3 loops on your hook), YO and pull through all 3 loops on the hook in one go.
DOUBLE CROCHET (ABBREVIATION: dc)

TREBLE CROCHET (ABBREVIATION: tr)

STITCHES AND TECHNIQUES USED
INVISIBLE DECREASE
Insert the hook into the front loop of the first stitch and then directly also into the front loop of the second stitch that you want to decrease (3 loops on the hook). YO and pull through both front loops on the hook in one go. YO again and pull through both loops on the hook in one go.
INCREASE (ABBREVIATION: inc)
To work an extra stitch, you simply need to work into the same stitch more than once. Work one stitch as normal. Insert hook into same stitch you’ve just worked and complete another st.
CHANGING TO A NEW COLOR
You will change to another colour by joining in the new colour during the final step of the last stitch in the old colour as follows: work the last stitch in the old colour until the last two loops of the stitch are on the hook, then using the new colour, YO and pull through the 2 remaining old colored loops on your hook. The next stitch you make will be the first stitch in the new colour.
INVISIBLE FASTEN OFF (»here)
Cut yarn, pull the yarn tail through the last stitch completely and thread yarn tail onto yarn/tapestry needle. Skip one stitch then insert needle into the next stitch under booth loops of the second stitch of the last round. Next, insert needle back into the same stitch that the yarn tail is coming from but into the back loop only. This creates a closing stitch. Weave tail into wrong side before trimming.
THROUGH FRONT LOOP (abbrev. tfl)
The front loop is the loop closest to you.
CROCHETING INTO THE BACK BUMP OF A CHAIN
Usually you crochet in the right side of the chain. When you turn your chain, you’ll see a small ‘bump’ on the wrong side of each stitch.
