With brown (or with color of your choice) and using either the magic circle or the ch 2, sc in 2nd ch from hook method..
make 6 sc in 'ring'
Rnd 2: (Inc) twice, (Hdc-Inc) twice, (Inc) in last 2 sts = 12 sts
Rnd 3: (sc, Inc) twice, (3 Hdc-Inc) in nxt st, Hdc in ea of nxt 2 sts, (3 Hdc-Inc) in nxt st, (Inc, sc) twice = 20 sts
Rnd 4: sc in first st, Inc in next st, sc in ea of nxt 6 sts, (3 sc) in nxt st, sc in ea of nxt 3 sts, (3 sc) in next st, sc in ea of nxt 5 sts, Inc in nxt st, sc in lst st = 26 sc
Rnd 5: BLO work round even = 26 sc
Rnd 6: sc in ea of nxt 7 sts, (Hdc-Dec) twice, Hdc in ea of nxt 4 sts, (Hdc-Dec) twice, sc in remaining 7 sts = 22 sts
Rnd 7: sc in ea of nxt 5 sts, Dec over nxt 2 sts, (Hdc-Dec) 4 times, Dec over nxt 2 sts, sc in remaining 5 sts = 16 sts
Rnd 8: sc in ea of nxt 4 sts, (Dec) 4 times, sc in remaining 4 sts = 12
Change color to blue (or color using for overalls)
Rnd 9: (Dec) twice, (Hdc-Dec) 3 times, (Dec) = 6 sts
Rnd 10: sc, Inc in nxt st, Hdc in nxt st, Hdc-Inc in nxt st, sc in nxt st, Inc in lst st = 9 sts
Rnd 11: (Inc, 2 sc) 3 times = 12 sc /Finish off
For Body continuing with Blue: Join in center of back of foot.
Rnd 12: sc in ea of nxt 3 sts, join w/ foot 2 and sc in ea of nxt 12 sts, join to foot 1 and sc in remaining 9 sts = 24 sc
Rnd 13: sc in first st, (Dec nxt 2 sc tog) twice, sc in ea of next 8 sts, (Dec nxt 2 sc tog) twice, sc in ea of remain 7 sts = 20 sc
Rnd 14: sc in first st, Dec nxt 2 sc tog, sc in ea of nxt 8 sts, Dec nxt 2 sc tog, sc in ea of remaining 7 sts = 18 sc
Rnd 15: sc in first st, hdc in nxt st, sc in ea of nxt 8 sts, hdc in nxt st, sc in ea of remaining 7 sts = 18 sts
Color Change: Next row will begin shirt - pick any contrasting color for shirt.
Rnd 16: in BLO, work evenly = 18 sc
Rnd 17: (sc, Dec) 6 times = 12 sc
Rnds 18-20: work even = 12 sc
Rnd 21: (Dec) 6 times = 6
finish off.
Overalls: (working in Front Loops of Rnd 15)
Rnd(s) 16-17: sc in ea st around = 18 sc
Rnd 19: Dec, sc in ea of nxt 14 sts, Dec = 16 sc
Rnd 20: sc in ea of nxt 3 sts, (sl st in nxt st) twice, sc in nxt st, hdc in ea of nxt 4 sts, (sl st in nxt st) twice, sc in nxt st, hdc in ea of nxt 2 sts, sc in lst st
Rnd 21: (sl st) 4 times, sc in same space as sl st of previous rnd, sc in nxt st, ch 1, turn
begin working ROWS:
Row 22: Dec over 2 sc just made, ch 1, turn
Row(s) 23-27: sc, ch 1 turn
at the end of Row 27 make sure that flap meets back of overalls - if yes, finish off and leave enough tail for sewing.

Arms (Make 2):
With straw color, begin with hand:
make 6 sc in 'ring'
Rnd 2: (Inc, sc) 3 times = 9 sc
Rnd 3: work even = 9 sc
Rnd 4: (Dec, sc) = 6 sc
Changing to shirt color
Rnd 5: BLO, work even = 6 sc
Rnd 6: (Inc, sc) 3 times = 9 sc
Rnd 7-9: work even = 9 sc
Rnd 10: (Dec, sc) = 6 sc
finish off and leave tail for sewing to body
Head: (starting at top of head)
make 6 sc in 'ring'
Rnd 2: (Inc) 6 times = 12 sc
Rnd 3: (Inc, sc) 6 times = 18 sc
Rnd 4: (Inc, 2 sc) 6 times = 24 sc (if using a 'hair' color end here)
Rnd 5: (Inc, 3 sc) 6 times = 30 sc
Rnd 6-8: work even = 30 sc
Rnd 9: (Dec, 3 sc) 6 times = 24 sc
Rnd 10: work even= 24 sc
Rnd 11: (Dec, 2 sc) 6 times = 18 sc
Rnd 12: (Dec, sc) 6 times = 12 sc
Rnd 13: (Dec) 6 times= 6 sc
Hat:
make 5 sc in 'ring'
Rnd 2: Inc in first st, sc in ea of remaining 4 = 6 sc
Rnd 3: (Inc, sc) 3 times = 9 sc
Rnd 4: work even = 9 sc
Rnd 5: (Inc, 2 sc) 3 times = 12 sc
Rnd 6: (Inc, sc) 6 times = 18 sc
Rnd 7: (Inc, 2 sc) 6 times = 24 sc
Rnd 8: work even = 24 sc
Rnd 9: (Hdc-Inc, 3 Hdc) 6 times = 30 hdc
Rnd 10: work even = 30 hdc
Rnd 11: (Inc, 4 sc) 6 times = 36 sc
Rnd 12: FLO (Inc, 5 sc) 6 times = 42 sc
Rnd 13: (Hdc-Inc, 6 hdc) 6 times = 48 hdc
Finish off and weave in end or use to secure hat to head.
Using photo, assemble your scarecrow. Embellish with scraps of yarn, felt, plaid - whatever you have handy. Use embroidery floss to give your scarecrow some 'loose straws'.
For Hay Fork, with brown, I chained 26, then slip stitched through 25 and finished off. For Metal, I used gray and chained 21 and slipped stitch back through 20 around a thin metal wire (to help shape) then glued the middle prong (ch 7, sl st 6) to the center.
