Today's clue is a bit earlier than usual... but I hope you enjoy it! The last clue is going to identify the animal, so a bit of waiting left!

Hi!
Thank you all for such positive feedback! This is the second clue. It is a bit different, as today we feature a non-amigurumi item. This is a scarf for the animal. It can be made of any yarn, including scraps. This means that you can even use it to represent the colors of yours favorite teams/singers/films to gift to a true fan. Or add some national colors. I made a scarf using just the colors I liked from my stash. The tassels are also completely optional but they are a good alternative when you hate to weave in ends ;) The legs have a different (triangular) shape Happy crocheting! Scarf Row 1: Ch 71, 1 sc in the 2nd ch from hook and in each ch back down.. Row 2: Ch 1, turn. 1 sc in every st. (70 sts) Do 3 more times of row 2. Fasten off. If you wish, add a few more strands of yarn and make tassels (various tutorials are available in YouTube). Legs Round 1: Magic ring and 6sc into it. Round 2: *1 sc in the next st, 3 sc in next* 3 times (12 sts) Round 3: *1 sc in the next 3 sts, 3 sc in next* 3 times (18 sts) Rounds 4-5: Sc evenly around Round 6: dec 9 times (9 sts) Rounds 7-10: Sc evenly around. Fasten off. Share your process photos with other crocheters too in the Ravelry and Facebook groups (FB: "Amigurumi MCAL 2016 by Kirju kui Liblikas" and Ravelry "Kirju kui Liblikas designs and CALS").

Thanks so much for those who found it, it has now been corrected and it is ok. Hope you understand! Have a nice day! Liisa As many people all over the world have shown interest, I have created a newsletter for you to notify about new updates and information. This doesn't only cover the MCAL, but also other updates on my blog. If you wish, leave your email here (it will not be available to other people!). :) Ükspäev mõtlesin, et võiks järelejäänud tillukese (või siis mitte nii tillukese) meriinolõnga kera ära heegeldada. Proovisin ka fpdc ja bpdc silmuseid, mulle meeldis see tekstuur. No ja siis tahtsin DROPS Alaska lõngaga veel mõne mõnusa puukese ka peale tikkida. Puud tegin täiesti meelega erinevaks, mulle meeldib ka päriselus, kui iga puu on erinev ja omamoodi, mitte udupeenelt pügatud ja tehislik. Pealmine pool on tavaline, peopesa aga eriline :) Kinnastega olen väga rahul! :) Alaska on väga äge lõng! Mõnusalt villane, aga ka soe ja paks :)
*** One day I thought I should use up a little (or not so little) ball of merino yarn (left from the hat and mittens). I also tried the fpdc and bpdc stitches, I liked the texture. And then I thought it would be fun to embroider a few trees with DROPS Alaska yarn. The trees were made different on purpose. In real life, I don't like very fancily cut trees either, I think trees should be free and natural. The top of the mittens is usual, but the inside is unique. :) I am super happy with the mittens! Alaska is such a good yarn! Nicely woollen, but also soft and thick. :) Ilusat päeva! Have a nice day! Liisa Hi!
This is the 1st clue, which consists basic amigurumi techniques. Hope you like it! Head (make 1) Amigurumi style crochet (spirally) Round 1: Magic ring and 6 sc into it. (6 sts) Round 2: work 2 sc in every stitch around (12 sts) Round 3 *1 sc in the next stitch, 2sc in next* 6 times (18 sts) Round 4*1 sc in the next 2 stitches, 2sc in next * 6 times (24 sts) Round 5: *1 sc in the next 3 stitches, 2sc in next * 6 times (30 sts) Round 6: *1 sc in the next 4 stitches, 2sc in next * 6 times (36 sts) Round 7: *1 sc in the next 5 stitches, 2sc in next* 6 times (42 sts) Rounds 8-13: sc evenly around. It is optional to do more or less, based on your preference. Round 14: *1 sc in the next 5 stitches, dec* 6 times (36 sts) Round 15: *1 sc in the next 4 stitches, dec* 6 times (30 sts) Round 16: *1 sc in the next 3 stitches, dec* 6 times (24 sts) Round 17: *1 sc in the next 2 stitches, dec* 6 times (18 sts) Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Body (make 1) Round 1: Magic ring and 6 sc into it. (6 sts) Round 2: work 2 sc in every stitch around (12 sts) Round 3: *1 sc in the next stitch, 2sc in next* 6 times (18 sts) Round 4: *1 sc in the next 2 stitches, 2sc in next * 6 times (24 sts) Round 5: *1 sc in the next 3 stitches, 2sc in next * 6 times (30 sts) Round 6: *1 sc in the next 4 stitches, 2sc in next * 6 times (36 sts) Rounds 7-10: Sc evenly around. Round 11: *1 sc in the next 10 sts, dec* 3 times (33 sts) Round 12: Sc evenly around Round 13: *1 sc in the next 9 sts, dec* 3 times (30 sts) Round 14: Sc evenly around Round 15: *1 sc in the next 8 sts, dec* 3 times (27 sts) Round 16: Sc evenly around Round 17: *1 sc in the next st, dec* 9 times, sc 2 (18 sts) Fasten off. Before you stuff the head, attach safety eyes. Hands (make 2) Round 1: Magic ring and 6 sc into it Round 2: Work 2 sc in every stitch around (12 sts) Rounds 3-4: Sc evenly around Round 5: *1 sc in the next st, dec* 4 times (8 sts) Rounds 6-15: Sc evenly around. Fasten off. Don't put much stuffing on the upper part of the hand, this way the hands are more natural. There is a hole where you finished crocheting. With the yarn end, do not draw yarn through, but use the yarn to sew the hole flat. This way it is easier to attach limbs. This was the easiest clue, but all the tricky bits in the other clues are explained. I hope you will enjoy this MCAL.
