All parts are crocheted in a spiral without sl st and a chain at the end of each round. Stuff the toy as you go. Take the yarn #1 and crochet the wood spirit’s body. Head, body, arms, legs  are crocheted as a single part.

Start with a head:
Rnd 1: 6 sc in a magic ring
Rnd 2: (inc) repeat 6 times [12]
Rnd 3: (sc in the next st, inc) repeat 6 times [18]
Rnd 4: (sc in the next 2 st, inc) repeat 6 times [24]
Rnd 5: (sc in the next 3 st, inc) repeat 6 times [30]
Rnd 6: (sc in the next 4 st, inc) repeat 6 times [36]
Rnd 7: (sc in the next 5 st, inc) repeat 6 times [42]
Rnd 8: (sc in the next 6 st, inc) repeat 6 times [48]
Rnd 9: (sc in the next 7 st, inc) repeat 6 times [54]
Rnd 10: (sc in the next 8 st, inc) repeat 6 times [60]
Rnd 11-18 (8 rounds): sc in all 60 st
Rnd 19: (sc in the next 8 st, dec) repeat 6 times [54]
Rnd 20: (sc in the next 7 st, dec) repeat 6 times [48]
Rnd 21: (sc in the next 6 st, dec) repeat 6 times [42]
Rnd 22: (sc in the next 5 st, dec) repeat 6 times [36]

Continue crocheting the body:
Rnd 23: sc in all 36 st in front loops only [36]
Rnd 24: (sc in the next 5 st, inc) repeat 6 times [42]
Rnd 25: (sc in the next 6 st, inc) repeat 6 times [48]
Rnd 26: (sc in the next 7 st, inc) repeat 6 times [54]
Rnd 27: (sc in the next 8 st, inc) repeat 6 times [60]

Start crocheting arms. Note: don’t stuff the arms!
Crochet 10 sc, fold, count back 10 stitches and join the circle. It’s the first round of the arm.
Rnd 2-4: sc in all 10 st
Rnd 5: (sc in the next 3 st, dec) repeat 2 times [8]
Rnd 6: sc in all 8 st
Rnd 7: (sc in the next 2 st, dec) repeat 2 times [6]

Insert thread in the needle and weave through the front loops. Pull off the opening.

The first arm is done. Count 20 stitches from it and join new yarn in the 21st stitch. Start crocheting the second arm:

Rnd 1: sc in the next 10 st. Join in a circle. Crochet rounds 2-7 like the first arm.

Don’t stuff the arms, but stuff tightly the head and the neck. Join yarn to one of the arms and start to crochet around the body, joining in a circle its both parts. We have 20 stitches between the arms at each side. That is:

Rnd 1: sc in all 40 st [40]
Rnd 2-7 (6 rounds): sc in all 40 st [40]
