Before you begin ...

» 2.5 mm crochet hook
» 5 different yarns for hook size 2.5 mm
» tapestry needle with blunt tip, a curved needle
(useful for attaching arms and hair}
» scissors
» tape measure
» stitch markers
» stuffing
» two safety eyes, 7 mm, black (It‘s also possible to embroider the eyes.)

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.

First a few suggestions ...

» We will be crocheting in continuous rounds. Head and body are crocheted in one piece, starting at the feet.
» Crochet as tight as you can! Should the holes between the stitches become too big, use a smaller crochet hook.
» Use stitch markers. Using these will help you with counting and keeping up with increasing and
decreasing in the correct way.
» 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 ;)!

work is secured. Now use a tapestry needle to work the remaining 6 stitches (fig. 03) from the front side into the front loop, then
draw yarn tightly and close the head (fig. 04). Fasten off the yarn!

The hair ...

fig. 01 fig. 02 fig. 03 fig. 04

We go on like this ... ch 26 incl. t ch, sc 25 crochet backward alongside the chain, 3 sc (fig. 01)

We now repeat this part in a spiral, counter-clockwise upwards, to the middle of the cap. We first crochet around the last round
of the cap (fig.22), skip next 2 front loop only rows (fig.33, a) and continue crocheting in the front loops of the cap.
Because we work in the opposite direction of the spiral, we always have to jump between the rows “upwards” after finishing a
round, as shown in fig. 03. There should be two “empty” rows of “front loop rows” between the rows of strands (fig. 04).
