CAP

Use light blue yarn (from the same brand as the white yarn, to make sure that the cap fits onto the gills).

Rnd 1: start 6 sc in mr [6]
Rnd 2: inc in all 6 st [12]
Rnd 3: (sc in next st, inc in next st) x 6 [18]
Rnd 4: (sc in next 2 st, inc in next st) x 6 [24]

Rnd 9: (sc in next 7 st, inc in next st) x 6 [54]

Take the stem and gills and join the cap to the gills while filling it (not too firm) with fiberfill.
Rnd 18: sc in all 54 st of both the cap and the gills [54]
Slst in next st. Fasten off and weave in the yarn end.

To bring the cap down, put a strand of white yarn through the bottom of the stem, one st from the center, to the top of the cap, one st from the center. Then back down through the top of the cap, one st from the center on the opposite side, to the bottom of the stem, one st from the center on the opposite side. Then pull on both strands to bring the cap down as far as you like and tie the two strands together at the bottom. The small piece of white yarn and the likely small dent now visible at the top will be hidden under a white scale.

LARGE SCALE (make 3)

Use white yarn.
Rnd 1: start 6 sc in mr [6]
Rnd 2: inc in all 6 st [12]
Rnd 3: (sc in next st, inc in next st) x 6 [18]
Slst in next st. Fasten off and leave a long tail.

SMALL SCALE (make 2)

Follow the steps from the large scale, except for Rnd 3.

Sew the scales onto the cap. Place one large scale on the top in the center, to cover up the piece of white yarn and the dent. Place the rest of the scales anywhere you like.

With black yarn embroider a little smiling mouth under the eyes, between Rnd 9 and 12 and your Mister Mushroom is finished!
