Notes Please, read the following carefully.

Pieces are crocheted in continuous non-joining rounds (unless

otherwise stated).

The finished car will have an approximate size of 11cm in length and
5.5cm high (4.3*2 inches) if you use the materials listed. My stitches
have an semi-X-shape (I do yarn under, then yarn over when working
sc stitch). If you do yarn over/yarn over, then your toy would be bigger
size.
Also pay attention if you used a different material to crochet the
toy, the size would be different than mine.

The pattern doesn’t include any crochet lessons. You should know
how to crochet basic stitches.

Hope you enjoy making your little car! I will be glad to see it finished!

 1. At first put the roof on the main piece.
Assembly Stuff the roof beforehand. Fix the piece
with pins and sew it.

2. Find the necessary location for the wheels. Fix them with pins and
sew them with the thread of grey color. Don’t pull the stitches tightly
to prevent the wheels form being distorted. Insert the needle twice
into the same stitch on the wheel, into both loops. The front wheel is
located stepping 2 rounds from the round where we worked into
back loops. The back wheels are also located stepping 2 rounds from
the seam.
3. Fix the front highlights with pins on the front side of the piece stepping
one round from where we worked into back loops. Sew them. Weave in
the thread tails inside.

one round from the seam. Sew them. Start sewing right from the edge

both sides of the car. I made two stitches, then decided to add one more
stitch between the stitches are located on the corners . Weave in the tails.

stepping 2 white rounds down. The length of the stitch is 2 sc. That’s all.
We finish it!
 Taxi pieces are crocheted in the same
way, but we don’t need to change color
Taxi design in main piece.The main piece and the
roof should be made in yellow color.

For the taxi we need to make

one more piece
- a taxi top sign:

Work in white color. Make

ch6, then start crocheting
from the second ch from the
hook:

R1. 3sc into one ch, 3sc, 3sc into the last
ch, 3sc across the other side of the chain
(12)
R2. 3inc, 3sc, 3inc, 3sc (18)
R3-4. 18sc (18) - 2 rounds
Make 2-3 sc more to shift the stitch
marker to the side of the piece, finish with
sl st.

Cut the thread and fasten off, leaving a

long thread tail for sewing.

Take a black thin thread and embroider

the word TAXI on the piece.
Stuff the sign slightly and fix it on the taxi roof with pins right in the
middle, then sew. Weave in the thread tail inside.

Now we are going to embroider black squares on both sides of the

car. Use a black yarn and a needle. At first decide where your
squares will be located. There is how my squares will be
embroidered. I made five squares.
Run the threaded needle through the taxi bottom and embroider
the squares with horizontal stitches.

Then make vertical stitches on the squares sides to make them smooth.

Our yellow taxi is made!
