This is part of a series of patterns I'm making that build up to create a life-sized human skeleton. This pattern contains all of the bones of the foot, along with the majority of the ligaments. I've also recently released a round-up of all patterns I've published so far in this series if you enjoy this one.
Difficulty:
Medium - difficult
This pattern is fairly complex, and the bones can be pretty fiddly. However, the stitches used aren't difficult. If you would like to give it a go, I'll be happy to help you if you get stuck :)
You will need:
You will need:
- A 1mm crochet hook
- A 2mm crochet hook
- anchor creative fino 4ply in white
- Rico essentials #10 crochet cotton in white and smokey blue
- Polyester stuffing
- A darning needle
- An embroidery needle
- A pair of sharp scissors
Right foot
Part A: The bones
Section 1: The phalanges
I have referred to the toes in this section in the same way as you would refer to fingers (pinkie, ring, index etc.) to make it clear which one I am referring to. You should use a 1mm hook and #10 crochet cotton for the phalanges unless otherwise specified.
For the big toe distal phalange:
Using a 2mm crochet hook and 4ply yarn make a magic loop with 6sc
Round 1: (sc, make 2sc in the next st) 3 times (9sc)
Round 2: Sc in each st

Part B: The foot ligaments
Making up:
Place the medial (first) cuneiform so that the cast-off edge is on the top, with the little point at the base of the bone pointing downwards (see below).
Place the medial (first) cuneiform so that the cast-off edge is on the top, with the little point at the base of the bone pointing downwards (see below).

Next position the navicular below the cuneiforms so that it is curving away from them, with the point at the medial cuneiform edge.
For the dorsal cuneo1-navicular ligament:

ch3
ch3
Row 1: sc in the 2nd st from hook and the next st. ch1, turn
Row 2: sc in both of these sts
Fasten off
The first of these ligaments should be sew to the lower edge of the intermediate cuneiform and the edge of the navicular just beside where you attached the previous ligament.
The other should be sewn to the lower edge of the lateral cuneiform, slightly to the left, and the other side should be sewn to the upper edge of the navicular, just to the right of where the previous ligament was attached.

Row 2: sc in each of these 4sts
Fasten off
Sew one end of this to the cuboid just to the right of the lower end of the ligament previously attached. The other end should be sewn to the navicular just to the right of where the previous ligament was attached.
The next step is to position the calcaneus. This should be positioned so that the fasten-off edge is below the cuboid and the sustentaculum tali is pointing to the left. The posterior facet should be facing upwards (as shown below).
For the dorsolateral calcaneocuboid ligament:
ch5
Row 1: sc in the 2nd st from hook and the next 3 chain sts
Row 1: sc in the 2nd st from hook and the next 3 chain sts

ch4
ch4
Row 1: sc in the 2nd chain st from hook and the next 2 chain sts

Sew one end of this to the cuboid in between the 2 ligaments that are already attached. The other end should be threaded underneath the calneonavicular component and sewn to the calcaneus just to the left of it.
You should now turn the bones over so you can work on the plantar ligaments (those on the bottom of the foot). I have propped the bones up slightly so they are easier to see.
The calcaneus should be resting on top of the talus. It should keep its place better once we have added more ligaments.

To make up:
The ligaments are all made in the same way as for the right foot, but attatched in the mirror image (let me know if you'd like a separate tutorial for this)
