​2. Nose & Cheeks (Using Red Yarn) ​Big Nose: 6 sc in MR -> 6 inc (12) -> (1 sc, 1 inc)*6 (18) -> 2 rounds sc even (18) -> (1 sc, 1 dec)*6 (12). Stuff lightly with fiberfill and close. ​Cheeks (Make 2): 6 sc in MR -> 6 inc (12). Sl st and fasten off, leaving a tail to sew flat onto the face. ​3. Legs & Body (Starting from the Shoes) ​The legs are crocheted separately and then joined together to continue up into the body. ​Shoes & Legs (Make 2): ​Using Red yarn, chain 7. Starting from the 2nd chain from hook: 5 sc, 3 sc in the last chain loop. Turn to work on the opposite side of the chain: 4 sc, 1 inc (14). ​Continue increasing until the sole reaches 30 stitches. ​Crochet 2 rows evenly (30). Next, make 6 consecutive decreases (dec) at the front section to shape the toe of the shoe. ​Switch to Blue yarn to crochet the accent stripe on the tip of the shoe. ​Switch to White yarn and work in BLO to start the leg (24 sc). ​To create the ruffle effect seen on the jumpsuit cuffs, work in FLO at the base of the leg, making 3 dc in each stitch. Continue crocheting the leg using the inner loops with White yarn. Work evenly for 12 rounds. ​Joining the Legs & Body: ​Join the two legs together by chaining 3 in between. The total stitch count should now be 54 sc. ​Crochet upward with White yarn to form the jumpsuit. ​As you approach the waistline (about 10 rows up), make decreases on the sides to bring the stitch count down to 42, and then down to 30. ​When you reach the neck, decrease evenly to 18 sc so that it matches the stitch count of the head.

4. Arms (Make 2 - Using White Yarn) ​6 sc in MR -> 6 inc (12) -> (1 sc, 1 inc)*6 (18) ​Crochet 3 rows evenly (to give the hands a plump look). ​(1 sc, 1 dec)*6 (12) to transition into the arm. ​Crochet 14 rows of 12 sc. Do not stuff the arms too tightly near the top so they lay flat against the body. ​For the ruffle on the wrists, work in FLO and make 3 dc in each stitch. ​5. Ruffled Collar (Using Blue Yarn) ​Chain a length that fits comfortably around the neck (approx. 25-30 chains). ​Make 3 double crochets (dc) into each chain stitch. ​In the next row, increase again by making multiple dc in each stitch to give the collar its dense, wavy look as seen in the photo. ​6. Hat & Hair ​Blue Hat: Use the same increase pattern as the head (starting with 6 sc in MR) until you reach 54 stitches. If necessary for a snug fit over the head, increase one more round to 60 stitches. Crochet evenly until it reaches ear level. To make the turned-up brim, work in FLO, increasing in every stitch. Finish the edge with Red yarn using the reverse single crochet (crab stitch) technique. ​Hair strands: Using Yellow, Orange, and Blue yarn, chain 15-20 stitches and sc back down the chain to make individual curls. Secure and sew these colorful strands to the inside brim of the hat so they peek out naturally. ​???? Assembly & Facial Details ​Head & Body: Sew the head securely to the body. Make sure the neck is stuffed very firmly so the head doesn't wobble. You can insert a small rolled piece of felt or a plastic support inside the neck for extra stability. ​Facial Features: ​Center and sew the big Red nose right between the eyes. ​Sew the red cheeks diagonally below the left and right sides of the nose. ​Using black embroidery thread, stitch eyelashes above the safety eyes and raised, cheerful eyebrows higher up. ​Embroider a wide, happy smile that curves from underneath the nose out towards the cheeks. ​Arms & Embellishments: ​Sew the arms symmetrically onto the upper sides of the body. ​Bow Tie: Crochet a small colorful rectangle (with Green, Yellow, and Orange stripes). Wrap Blue yarn tightly around the middle to pinch it into a bow shape, then sew it onto the clown’s neck. ​Embellish the jumpsuit by attaching the green and orange buttons, along with the tiny felt or crocheted hearts/circles on the chest and pants as shown in 1000104689.jpg.
