Body and Legs:
Magic Circle: Start with 6 single crochets (sc) into a Magic Circle for the leg.
Round 2: Work 2 sc in each stitch (stitch increase), making a total of 12 sc.
- Tighten up and knot the tail and cut.
Round 3: Work in back loops only, 1 sc in each stitch around.
- Round 4: Decrease round - 1 sc in the first two stitches, then complete four single crochet decreases (sc2tog), ending with 8 sc.
Rounds 5-10: 1 sc in each stitch around.
- Slip stitch into the first stitch of round 11 to finish the leg, stuff the leg, and cut the yarn.
Repeat for the second leg but do not cut the yarn after stuffing; proceed to join the legs.
Joining Legs and Body:
Join Legs: With a lighter color, join the legs by working 1 slip stitch through both legs, then crochet 15 sc evenly around the joined legs.
- Round 12: 1 sc in each stitch around.
- Round 13: Switch to half-double crochet (hdc) for each st around.
- Round 14: Work in the third loop only (or back loop if easier) with 1 sc in each st to create a ridge for the skirt.
Skirt:
- Start Skirt: Work a double crochet (dc) into the first 6 stitches, then 3 dc into the 7th stitch, then dc in the next 7 stitches, and 2 dc in the last stitch, join with a slip stitch.
- Next Round(s): Continue the skirt as per video instructions, adjusting the stitch pattern to create the desired skirt shape and length.
Head and Finishing Touches:
- Head: Begin increasing rounds for the head directly on top of the body, ensuring to place safety eyes between rounds 22 and 23, about four stitches apart.
- Continue Head: Work several rounds of sc for head shaping, followed by decrease rounds to form the top of the head.
- Finish Head: Close the head by decreasing until closed, stuff, and finish off.
Arms and Assembly:
- Arms: Start with a magic circle and continue for several rounds, followed by a color change for the sleeve, decrease to shape the arm, then finish off and sew to the body.
- Sew Arms: Position and sew arms to the sides of the body.
Details:
- Skirt Adjustment: Once the body and head are complete, return to the skirt for any final adjustments.
- Hair: Using black yarn, create a wig cap by crocheting a flat disk that covers the doll’s head. Then attach strands of yarn around the wig cap for hair.
- Finishing Details: Add any additional details such as a necklace or facial features as desired.
Notes:
- The pattern mentions that certain aspects, like the length of the top and skirt, have been adjusted for an improved look.
- The creator offers written patterns in their Etsy shop for those who prefer printed instructions.
