— Fuselage :
Info :
Blue plush yarn. You need to make a triangle shape. This will work if we make 3 stitches in one loop.

Round 11 :
You need to make 6 increases exactly in the middle of the triangle. I have it: 7 sc, 6 inc, 8 sc (27)
Infos :
Find your center of the triangle and crochet the required number of stitches.
Infos :
In the next row, the increase should also be in the middle. If, due to the peculiarities of crocheting, your beginning of the row has shifted differently from mine, find the center of the upper part and count the required number of stitches. The increase should be in the center and 2 sc and 1 inc from it to the left and right.

— Tail :
Info :
Blue plush yarn. You need to make 4 identical parts. Then we will combine them two pieces into one. You will get 2 strong parts of the V-tail. Crochet in turning rows. Each new row starts with 1 chain.
Info :
For each pair, cut the thread on one part, but do not cut on the second and continue to crochet around the perimeter of the parts to "sew" them together with a hook.
Pattern :
6 chains. Starting from the second loop from the hook, crochet in a chain:
Round 2-9 :
Turn, 1 chain, 5 sc (5)
Info :
Fasten the thread to one part and cut it off. On the second, make one chain, do not cut the thread.
Infos :
Fold the two pieces flat and crochet on three sides. Thus, we will connect two parts into one strong. Crochet 1 sc in each stitch. In each corner, crochet in one loop (1 sc + 1 hdc + 1 sc). This is necessary so that the angle is more pronounced and does not twist. Fasten the thread at the end with a chain and cut off. Make another one part of the same.
— Wings :
Info :
Blue plush yarn. You also need to crochet 4 parts and then connect them two into one, just like the tail. Crochet in turning rows. Each new row starts with 1 chain.
Info :
For each pair, cut the thread on one part, but do not cut on the second and continue to crochet around the perimeter of the parts to "sew" them together with a hook.
Pattern :
8 chains. Starting from the second loop from the hook, crochet in a chain:
Round 2-14 :
Turn, 1 chain, 7 sc (7)
Infos :
Fasten the thread to one part and cut off. On the second, make one chain, do not cut the thread. Fold the two pieces flat, crochet on three sides to connect into one strong wing. Crochet 1 sc in each stitch and in each corner make (1 sc + 1 hdc + 1 sc). Fasten and cut off. Make another wing the same.
— Engines (2 pcs) :
Info :
Plush yarn, I used milky color.
Round 2 :
2 sc, inc, 2 sc (6)
Round 4 :
3 sc, inc, 3 sc (8)
Round 6 :
4 sc, inc, 4 sc (10)
Infos :
Fill the part with filler and add it during crocheting.
Info :
Fasten the thread with sl st and cut off. Hide the end of the thread inside the engine.
— Propeller holder :
Info :
Cotton yarn or any other yarn of approximately the same yardage (50 g / 160 m).
Round 5 :
(3 sc, inc) * 2 (10)
Round 6 :
(4 sc, inc) * 2 (12)
Round 7 :
(5 sc, inc) * 2 (14)
Info :
Fasten the thread with the sl st, leave a long end for sewing and cut off.
— Propellers (3 pcs) :
Info :
I make them on the principle of crocheting a cord. First leave the thread about 60 cm (23 inches). Then fold it in half to form a thicker double thread.
Info :
Make a chain, but not on the edge, in the middle of the thread. We crochet each stitch according to this principle: there is a loop on the hook, make the yarn over on the hook from the leaving thread, crochet sc with a working thread through two loops. Then again make a yarn over from the leaving thread and crochet sc. You need to make 9 such stitches. Then fasten the thread and cut it off.
— Windows :
Info :
You need to draw a template for windows and cut them out of paper or cardboard, or print the file and cut out the templates. Then take thin black or blue felt and cut out all the windows using templates. The central window is 1 pc, and the side windows are all 2 pcs.
— Assembly :
Info :
Find the center of the toy. To do this, I find the center between the increments in the 11th row and then follow it.
Info :
Place the wings between rows 14 and 22 at a distance of 9 sc from the center of the toy. That is, the wings are 18 sc from each other. Fix it with pins and sew along the perimeter with a strong thin thread to the tone of the main yarn. I use Yarnart Jeans in blue (50g/160m).
Info :
I bring all the ends of plush and thin threads to one point and tie them into 2 knots. I hide extra tails inside the toy. This is necessary so that the details are sewn more securely and do not tear during the game.
Info :
Fasten the engines with pins at the ends of the wings and sew them around the perimeter with a thin thread to the tone of the plush yarn. I also use Yarnart Jeans (50g/160m) milky. Pull the ends of the threads through one hole, tie into 2 knots and hide the excess inside the wing or engine.
Info :
Place the tail pieces about 4-5 rows from the edge of the fuselage at an angle so as to form a V-shape. In the middle they should touch. Secure with pins and sew along the perimeter with a thin, strong thread. Tie all the tails of the threads together and hide inside the toy.
Info :
Place the propeller at the center point of the front fuselage. It's between rows 2 and 3. Fasten with pins and sew around the entire circumference with the thread that we left.
Info :
Place the windows so that there is approximately the same distance between them. First, fix the front window and from it to the left and right continue to place all the others. The front window is above 11 row. Sew the windows with regular sewing thread. Or glue them if the toy is not for the child.
This plush Beechcraft V-tail airplane pattern walks you through shaping a soft fuselage, making wings, tail and little engines. Complete with propeller instructions and felt window templates, it’s a satisfying weekend project. Enjoy creating a handmade plane full of personality!
