Free Amigurumi Unicorn Horn Pattern
Hook Size: 8 / H 5.00mm
Gauge: 1 inch x 1 inch = 4 rows x 3 stitches
Note: I recommend starting with the Magic Circle Technique,
if this technique is new to you then find a step by step "how to" here.
Round 1: Sc3 in magic circle (3)
Round 2: Inc 1, sc 2 (4)
Round 3: Sc 2, Inc 1, sc 1 (5)
Round 4: Sc 3, inc 1, sc1 (6)
Round 5: Sc 4, inc 1, sc 1 (7)
Round 6: Sc 2, Inc 1, sc 4 (8)
Round 7: Sc around (8)
Round 8: Sc 3, Inc 1, Sc 4 (9)
Round 9: Sc 4, inc 1, Sc 4 (10)
Round 10: Sc around (10)
Round 11: Sc 6, Inc 1, Sc3 (11)
Round 12: Sc 5, Inc 1, Sc 5 (12)
Round 13: Sc 9, Inc 1, Sc 2 (13)
Round 14: Sc 3, Inc 1, Sc 9 (14)
Round 15: Sc 6, Inc 1, Sc 7 (15)
Round 16: Sc 1, Inc 1, Sc 13 (16)
Round 17: Sc 9, Inc 1, Sc 6 (17)
Round 18: Sc 14, Inc 1, Sc 2 (18)
Round 19: Sc 5, Inc 1, Sc 12 (19)
Round 20: Sc 12, Inc 1, Sc 6 (20)
Now, with a darker color purple, back stitch from the bottom of Round 20.
Up 2 rows and over 2 stitches each time until the tip of the horn, then work down again in the same way, granted you won't be able to do 2 over and 2 up once you are at the top of the horn, so just space them halfway apart (or stitches up 1 stitch over).
OR fasten the thread off once you reach the top of the horn then begin back stitching on Round 20, 8 stitches from the first line.
Once you have the initial stitches complete, using more of the darker purple thread, trace the back stitches by wrapping the thread around them like in the photo below.
Work up the thread and pull a little on the twisting thread as you go, this helps give it a "swirling" shape.

Aiee! So cute! Am gonna make a couple of mini horns for a baby bib I'm crocheting! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWoo! That is awesome! What a fun bib idea! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is great!
ReplyDeleteBut what if I wanna make a longer horn? I can tell that you increase each round, but I can't see any pattern in when you place that increase ...?
Thanks for sharing your idea! :-)
Hi Memmer - thank you for asking! As you continue to make your horn longer stagger the increase so it's not right on top of the last rows increase. I staggered the increase so the first row you have the increase on one side of the circle, in the next row make sure the increase is on the other side of the circle. I hope this helps!
Deletewhat does "inc" 1 mean? never heard of that terminology
ReplyDeleteIncrease one. So two single stitch in the next stitch
ReplyDeleteSo at the end of each row are you joining with a slip stitch? I want to make sure because I have seen other patterns (not yours) where they do not join.
ReplyDeleteOh and also, do you chain after the slip stitch?
