My entry to the DIYHub monthly contest "Cats". [En-Es] Knitted mice for Miss and Crystal

[elentogether]

Hello Hive friends and DIY hub community. I hope you are all very well.
When I found out the theme for this month's contest, "Cats", Cristal, our new kitten, had just arrived at the house.

Hola amigos de Hive y comunidad de DIY hub. Espero que se encuentren todos muy bien.
Cuando me enteré del tema para el concurso correspondiente a este mes, "Gatos", acababa de llegar a casa Cristal, nuestra nueva gatita.

But it's been two weeks and she still hasn't fully adjusted to our other pets, including Miss, the first cat we adopted.
Today I show you how I knitted two little mice for them to play with and maybe become friends.

Pero han pasado dos semanas y aun no se ha adaptado completamente a nuestras otras mascotas, incluyendo a Miss, la primera gata que adoptamos.
Hoy les muestro como les tejí dos pequeños ratones para que ellas jueguen y tal vez se hagan amigas.

instructions
It begins by knitting three chain stitches with white or gray thread. Then it is closed to continue knitting in circles around in single crochet and making alternate increases so as to obtain a cone.

Instrucciones
Se comienza tejiendo con hilo blanco o gris una cadeneta de tres puntos. Después se cierra para seguir tejiendo en círculos alrededor en puntos bajos y haciendo aumentos alternadamente de manera que se obtenga un cono.

---

1st row: 6 sc (single crochet)
2nd row: 6 sc
3rd row: 1 sc, 2 sc over the next stitch, repeat (we obtain 9 stitches)
4th row: 9 sc (1 sc in each stitch of the previous row)
5th row: 2 sc, 2 sc over the next stitch, repeat (we reach 12 stitches)
6th row: 12 single crochet (1 sc in each sitch of the previous row)
7th row: 3 sc, 2 sc on the next one, repeat (so we reach 15 sc)
8th row: 15 sc.

1ra vuelta: 6 pb (puntos bajos)
2da vuelta: 6 pb
3ra vuelta; 1 pb, 2 pb sobre el siguiente punto, repetir (obtenemos así 9 puntos)
4ta vuelta: 9 pb (1 pb en cada punto de la vuelta anterior)
5ta vuelta: 2 pb, 2 pb sobre el siguiente punto, repetir (llegamos a 12 puntos)
6ta vuelta: 12 puntos bajos (1 pb en cada punto de la vuelta anterior)
7ma vuelta: 3 pb, 2 pb sobre el siguiente, repetir (alcanzamos 15 pb)
8va vuelta: 15 pb.

9th to 14th rows:
Once we have the cone, continue knitting without increasing to make the body of the mouse.
After we get the desired size we fill in and decrease to close. These are made by knitting 2 sc together every two rows.

9na a 14va vueltas:
Una vez que tengamos el cono, se continua tejiendo sin aumentos para hacer el cuerpo del ratón.
Después que consigamos el tamaño deseado rellenamos y hacemos disminuciones para cerrar. Estas se hacen tejiendo 2 pb juntos cada dos vueltas.

For the ears, a 2-centimeter chain is woven with pink thread. On this, in turn, a single crochet is knitted in each chain stitch, always increasing a single crochet at the end and one at the beginning.
In the following rows, alternate increases are made (1 sc - 2 sc on the next stitch of the previous row, successively) to give a fan shape.
After the desired size is achieved, the ends are joined and sewn to the body of the mouse.

Para las orejas se teje con hilo rosado una cadeneta de 2 centímetros. Sobre esta, a su vez, se teje un punto bajo en cada punto de cadeneta, siempre aumentando un punto bajo al final y uno al principio.
En las siguientes vueltas se hacen aumentos alternados (1 pb - 2 pb sobre el siguiente punto de la vuelta anterior) sucesivamente para dar forma de abanico.
Después que se consiga el tamaño deseado se unen las puntas y se cosen al cuerpo del ratón.

---

The sewn or glued beads are placed as eyes and nose. Buttons can also be used or simply embroidered with black thread.
If you want to put mustaches on them, you can also do them with thread, but with a layer of lacquer to make them firm.

Se colocan las cuentas cosidas o pegadas a manera de ojos y nariz. También se pueden usar botones o simplemente bordarlos con hilo negro.
Si se les quiere poner bigotes se pueden hacer con hilo también, pero con una capa de laca para que queden firmes.

The tail is made with a simple chain or by adding a round of slip stitch.

La cola se hace con una cadeneta sencilla o agregando una vuelta de punto raso.

So, you did those drawings before you did the real work? Or did you do those after finishing the work just to let us know how the stitches should be?
Either way, you did great showing the stitches in drawing so it gets easier for someone who wishes to do similar work. Now tom has jerries to play with, nice.

[elentogether]

Thank you very much for your support, I'm glad you liked it ☺️
😂Actually there were many flesh and blood Jerrys here, but they left thanks to the kittens.Hello @frankevor. I have saved the photos with the drawings of the basic points to use them when necessary, without having to draw again.

[frankevor]

Oh I see. Thanks for the clearance. Yeah I liked it.

Actually there were many flesh and blood Jerrys here, but they left thanks to the kittens.

Qué bonitos te quedaron mami 😍 Ojalá Miss y Cristal empiecen a jugar juntas pronto

[elentogether]

Gracias mi cielo. Sii, hasta el momento solo se miran de forma amenazante, no se si es porque las dos son hembras. Puede ser que cuando a Cristal se le quite el miedo, Miss quiera ser su amiga 🙂. Dios te bendiga 😘.

[dayadam]

Ya veras que pronto esa hermosa miembro de la familia se adaptara. Estoy segura que le encanto su obsequio. Gracias por mostrarnos tu proceso. Saludos @elentogether 🐱

[elentogether]

Muchas gracias a ti @dayadam. Es cierto, probé el ratón gris con Cristal y al parecer si le gustó porque jugó un ratito 🙂.

[creacioneslelys]

Hola @elentogether me parece una idea muy linda para darle la bienvenida a tu nueva mascota. Espero que ambos gatitos se sientan felices jugando con estos lindos ratoncitos, se ven muy cuchis.

[elentogether]

Gracias!, me encanta que te hayan gustado @creacioneslelys🙂.

[lauracraft]

I hope that with this gift you gave them they can break the ice and one of them will be a little jealous and the other one a little shy and afraid, it should not be easy but with love and trust it can be achieved, and soon they will start to adapt.
Thanks for sharing, good luck in the contest, my friend.Hello friend @elentogether I hope you are well, and I hope those kitties are trying to get along, and can start to be the best companions.

Asi que con este regalo que les hiciste puedan romper el hielo y se les baje un poco a una los celos y a la otra la timidez y miedo, no debe ser facil pero con amor y confianza se puede lograr, y pronto se comenzara adaptar.
Gracias por compartir suerte en el concurso amiga.🤗Hola amiga @elentogether espero que estés bien, y espero que esas gatitas estén tratando de congeniar, y puedan empezar a ser las mejores compañeras.

[elentogether]

Yes, despite the fact that it may be jealousy for leadership and territory, I maintain the hope that they end up getting along ❤️.
Greetings and happy weekend 🙂.Thanks friend @lauracraft.

Si, a pesar de que puede ser celos por el liderazgo y el territorio, mantengo la esperanza de que terminen llevándose bien ❤️.
Saludos y feliz fin de semana 🙂.Gracias amiga @lauracraft.
