Clothespin chair

In order to make a cozy rocking chair for Barbie dolls, you will need the following materials:

• 12 linen clothespins made of wood.
• PVA glue (can be replaced with any other).

Now you can proceed to the manufacture of a doll piece of furniture:

1. Disassemble clothespins, getting rid of metal parts.
2. Armed with prepared glue and glue 8 halves to make the details look like a fan - this element will be the back of a rocking chair.
3. The other 8 halves must be glued evenly to make a rectangle - this is the seat.
4. Let's move on to the sidewalls. Now you need to take two halves of clothespins and glue them together with a house. Then at the top of this “house”, glue another half of the clothespin with the rounded side up, and at the base with the same side down.
5. Make the second sidewall the same way.
6. Glue all parts of the chair together.

Crochet round chair

To make this piece of furniture, you will need some basic crochet skills and some materials:

• Hook - better to take at number 2.
• Yarn of two different colors - lighter and darker. You can use both wool and wool mixture.

Important! It is desirable that the yarn be from the same manufacturer and that the two colors have the same thickness.

• Thick cardboard.
• Needle, threads.
• Filler (you can use foam rubber, kitchen sponges or synthetic winterizer).

Now let's move on to the master class so that you can easily make a doll chair with your own hands:

• First of all, you need to make a foundation. Our foundation is a circle. It can be made independently from thick cardboard or you can take, for example, a circle from adhesive tape.
• Now take a piece of cardboard and double-draw the cooked circle to get two identical circles.
• Cut out these circles.
• We glue the blank and two circles together so that the armchair has a bottom and a lid.
• We knit an air chain of 6 loops of light yarn, knit them in a ring and knit 12 tbsp. b. n In the second row there will be 24, in the third - an increase through the column, in the fourth - after 2 columns, in the fifth - after 3. As a result, you should get a perfectly smooth wool circle.
• We perform 2 air loops so that there is a rise, after which we knit the walls of the future armchair for the doll. For this purpose, loops no longer need to be added, but the inner sides of the loops of the base circle must be captured.
• We continue the work until your canvas reaches the same height as the blank.
• Insert the cardboard blank inside.
• We knit a woolen circle in the same pattern as before.
• Using a needle and thread matching the color, sew the part to the base.
• Now you need to sew the back of the chair for the doll with your own hands. To do this, we collect 4 air loops of darker yarn, connect them into a ring, then tie them with eight single crochet columns. The second row of columns should be 16.
• Now, as in the basis of the armchair, we knit the columns without increasing, capturing the inner loops. We knit in a circle.

Important! As the part lengthens, it must be filled with filler.

• We knit another circle from two rows and sew it to the back.
• Sew the back to the chair, simultaneously bending it during sewing. This should be done with matching thread color or transparent fishing line.
