How to Make the Toes on the Trevor Triceratops Crochet Pattern

Crocheting toys can be a fun and rewarding hobby. In this article, I will guide you step-by-step on how to make the adorable toes on the Trevor Triceratops crochet pattern. Before we begin, make sure you have completed rounds one through four of the leg pattern. Let's get started!

Materials Required

To make the toes, you will need the following materials:

• Worsted weight yarn (two different colors)
• Crochet hook
• Scissors
• Yarn needle

Round 5: Starting the Toes

To begin making the toes, we will start with round five of the foot. At this point, you should already have eight single crochet stitches completed. Now, let's change colors.

Changing Colors

Follow the instructions to change your yarn color. Drop the first color and pick up the second color. Make sure to work under both loops for the remaining stitches.

Creating the Popcorn Stitch

In this pattern, we will be using the popcorn stitch to create the toes. The popcorn stitch consists of four double crochets into the same stitch. Here's how to do it:

1. Yarn over and insert your hook into the next stitch.
2. Carry the first color behind your stitch to easily pick it up later.
3. Yarn over and pull up a loop, then yarn over and pull through the first two loops.
4. Repeat steps 3 and 4 three more times.
5. Before completing the last double crochet, drop the current color and pick up the second color.
6. Use the last yarn over to finish the stitch.

Round 6: Continuing with the Toes

Now that we have created the popcorn stitch, let's continue with round six and make the remaining toes.

Changing Colors Again

Similar to round five, we will change colors before finishing the last double crochet stitch. Swap back to the lighter color.

Creating the Last Toe

We will repeat the same steps as before to create the last toe. Work under both loops and place four double crochets into the stitch. Remember to change colors before completing the last stitch.

Finishing Off the Foot

After completing the toes, we are almost done with the foot. For the rest of the round, work single crochet stitches in the back loop only. This will give the foot a nice textured finish.

Final Steps

Once you finish round six, take a moment to admire your progress. Your foot should now have adorable popcorn toes in two different colors.
