Notes
★★★
Pattern is written in English using US TERM.
Skill Level : Advanced Beginner / Intermediate.
Doll size will be approximately 25cm height when using same yarn and hook size
suggested.
Clothes are removable.
Feel free to choose any yarns you want that suitable for amigurumi work, remember to
change the hook size too.
Different yarns and hook sizes may vary the product size.
Notes for details :
★ To make the neck more sturdy and prevent our doll from
a wobbly head, I crochet a Neck-tube and insert inside
doll's head and neck. Stuff firmly with fiberfill or you can
put a hard plastic straw or craft wire inside the Neck-tube
@nywynscorner
★ I put a piece of craft wire inside two arms and cross @nywynscorner
through the chest so that the doll may change her pose. If
you don't find it suitable you can ignore the wire.
★ For the hair, I use fabric glue/hot glue to stick the hair
strands onto the head. This way is fast and convenient but
the weak point is that you may not repair anything later. @nywynscorner
So if you don't like to glue, just sew them with yarn needle
at the pinned spots.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about the
pattern. I will be happy to help you with my best.
