Row 8 to Row 10:
1 SC at each point throughout the row. (42)
For the colours on the bee to be straight, this last row must be closed with a sliding crochet. Cut the yellow yarn and insert the black yarn with the hook to change the colour. We recommend tying a knot with the yarn and then a chain to start, and then continuing the pattern.
The photo shows the colour change process.
Once the colour change has been made you can continue the pattern, which in this case will be three rows with the black yarn. Upon reaching row 13, change to the yellow yarn again, repeating the earlier process. Don’t forget to make a chain when you start the row. Each time you switch yarns it is important to keep the loose threads tucked into the figures.

To make the mouth and eyebrows use what you have leftover from one of the leg strands, without even cutting the fabric.
To stitch on the eyebrows you just have to make a line above the eyes tilted sideways. My suggestion is to do so between row 5 and 6.
You can vary the position of your eyebrows as you like, but always keep in mind that depending on where you position them, the expression of your bee will change.
I have embroidered a sideways mouth between rows 4 and 5. You can also use felt if you want to make the bee look like it’s laughing.

Use a black wire and cut two pieces of about 7 cm.
Fold each point of each piece into a round shape. Then apply glue on one end and insert it into row 7m leaving a distance of 5 crochets between each antenna.

Remember that the first two legs are sewn between crochets 9 and 10, leaving six crochets of separation between them. The second two legs are sewn between rows 20 and 21 leaving six crochets of separation between them.
The wings are stitched on between rows 14 and 17, leaving a gap of 4 crochets between them.
Do not forget to tuck in your spare threads. You can do so by crocheting or sewing with a needle. It is easier with the needle since you can move it around the body.
