» stuffing, stitch markers
» craft wire (aluminum wire, ø 3 mm)
» tapestry needle with blunt tip, sewing needle, curved needle
First a few suggestions ...

» Crochet Terms and abbreviations used are American terms.
» These techniques will be used and are therefore not further explained: single crochet, half double crochet,
double crochet etc. Special skills and tips are explained in the technical part.
» We will be crocheting in continuous rounds. Head and body are crocheted in one piece, starting at the feet.
» Always crochet as tightly as possible (except when specifically told not to). If the holes between the stitches are
too big, use a smaller size crochet hook.
» Use stitch markers, it is then easier to count the rounds, increases and decreases.
» If you feel like there is no more space left for stuffing, do put in a handful more!
» Modelling accurately when stuffing will give this girl the perfect shape! So don’t just stuff the stuffing
randomly, but stuff it in the right parts ;)!
A piece of advice ...

This doll is meant for collectors. Be careful especially with children under the age of 3 years. The safety eyes
and yarn can come loose, depending on your crochet skills, stuffing can come out.

Joining the legs together

Crochet the legs in soft apricot. The legs are joined in a figure eight in sc.
Use the yarn of the second leg (for clarity a green yarn has been used in the
fig. 04 pictures, but you would normally use the colour in the pattern). Crochet a
sc on the inside of the leg (where the legs meet) so that the point of the shoe
faces forwards (fig 03). Now proceed with the first leg and crochet 18 sc
(fig. 04), move back to the other leg and crochet 18 sc. At the end of the rnd
there will be 36 sc (fig. 05).
Place a stitch marker. Once you have joined the legs of the doll the stitch
marker will be at the start of the buttocks.

Rnd 13: 4x (3 sc, dec), 13 sc, 4x (dec, 3 sc), dec (= 46 st).
Rnd 14: sc to the centre back
fig. 04
Centre back (fig. 04): If the pattern says
to crochet to centre back (for example
at the hips or bust), then this means
that you crochet till you are really at the
centre back of your work. Centre back
is a set point. It ensures that the doll is
symmetrical. In this way you can correct
small errors. Using your own judgement
crochet to that point and imagine that a
vertical line is running through the doll.
If necessary, move your stitch marker.

point where the upper edge of the bust becomes the top from the inside to
fig. 04 the outside (fig. 04, a). The other end of the piece of yarn is inserted from
the outside to the inside of the neck at rnd 2/3 (fig. 04, b) and then drawn

Now stop crocheting and give your doll a pretty face. Insert the safety eyes
through the openings in rnd 11 and fasten them well. The numbers of the
rnds given now go from rnd 18 of the head downwards. Embroider the
eyelashes and eyebrows. Create a nose in skin tone between rnds 9 and 10 by
sewing twice over 2 stitches. Embroider the mouth between rnds 12 and 13
sewing over 2 stitches. Knot all loose ends at the back of your work and fill
the head with stuffing. There are various ways to embroider the facial features
which gives the doll a different look. It is also possible to give the doll
blushing cheeks by using a little blusher or pink eyeshadow (fig. 02).
