Grab your hook and start into an intergalactic lalylala crochet adventure!
Make your own flying saucer musical pull toy from this extraordinary crochet kit – of course with abducted cow and whimsical cute Alien amigurumi! Pulling the cow down tmakes the music box play the title main theme of the 90ies cult series 'The X Files' (audio sample: https://www.instagram.com/tv/BpuPbt6lMNM/), while the clueless bovine slowly beams up to the flying saucer and its little extraterrestrial pilot.
The crochet kit includes the crochet pattern (digital PDF file by email) as well as all the materials to make the entire toy – such as yarn, a plastic dome, a wire ring, two pairs of safety eyes, red sequins and beads, nylon thread, useful stitch markers, a darning needle and soft stuffing. The baby safe musical movement coming with the kit, features an extra long neon green coloured pull cord and an eyelet to fix the music box safely inside the flying saucer.
All the material is wrapped in a handy cotton project bag with UFO print (fun fact: 'UFO' is the craft geek term for 'UnFinished Objects'). This bag is the perfect space to keep all your crochet supplies together wherever you go. You can also use it to sustainably gift wrap or store your finished music box toy.
The crochet pattern is very easy to follow and features very detailed instructions, many step-by-step photos and tutorials. I is recommend this fun project to both, crochet beginners and advanced crocheters. The digital PDF pattern is available in many different languages (see list below ↓).
