Skills level: easy

Skills you will need:
Magic ring (alternative for magic ring: Make chain 2. Work SC stitches in first chain), crocheting in rounds, crocheting in rows, chain stitch, slip stitch, single crochet stitch, double crochet stitch, half double crochet stitch, decreasing (regular or invisible on you desire), increasing.

MATERIALS:
I used yarn of different manufacturers:

ALIZE Cotton Gold (55% cotton, 45% acrylic; 100 g = 330 m / 3,53 oz = 361 yd)
YARN ART Jeans (55% cotton, 45% acrylic; 50g = 160 m /1,76 oz = 175 yd)

COLORS:

ALIZE Cotton Gold
Light green color: 35 g (1,23 oz) – for the head, body, outer ears, two of spikes, tail, legs and arms
Milk color: 7 g (0,27 oz) – for the muzzle, wings, inner ears and embroidery

YARN ART Jeans

Yellow color: 6 g (0,21 oz) for the spikes, a patch and embroidery

  • Hook size US 1 (2,5 mm)
  • Polyester ber ll (or stuf ng of your choice)
  • 2 black (or brown) 16 mm (0,6 inch) plastic safety eyes or black yarn to embroider, when the doll is made for a baby
  • Black embroidery thread (or yarn) for embroidery of the mouth, nostrils and eyelashes
  • Tapestry needle
  • Stitch marker
  • Pins
  • Scissor
  • Optional: wooden spoon/chopstick to simplify the lling

MEASUREMENTS:

Using the stated hook size and yarn, your doll will turn out about 29 cm (11,4 inch) from the feet to
the top of the spikes.

GAUGE:
Gauge for the doll: 7 single crochet stitches x 8 rounds to 1 inch (hook size US 1 or 2,5 mm).

Abbreviations used:
Pattern is written using standard US crocheting terms:

beg Ch = beginning chain
BL(O) = back loop (only) = crochet through back loops only. If BL(O) is marked after the round number, crochet the entire round through BL(O). If BL(O) is in the middle of a sentence between commas, crochet only the indicated stitches BL(O)

Ch = chain stitch
N Ch = make N chain stitches
[…] x N = repeat instructions described in the brackets N times in that round
dec = SC decrease (SC 2 stitches together) = invisible decrease = (insert hook into FLO of the indicated st and into FLO of next st, YO, pull through both front loops, YO, pull through both loops on hook = regular decrease = (crochet next 2 stitches together into 1 stitch by pulling up a loop through both stitches and crocheting the loops together)

DC = double crochet = (YO, insert hook in indicated st, YO, pool through loop, (YO, pool through 2 loops) twice.

Dc inc = double crochet increase (2 DC into the same stitch)

fasten off = Cut the yarn, leaving about 10 cm (4 inch) tail, and pull this tail all the way through the top of the last stitch made.

hdc = half double crochet = (YO, insert hook in indicated stitch, pull through loop, YO, pull through all 3 loops on hook)

inc = SC increase (2 SC into the same stitch)
N SC / N slst = crochet one SC / slst in the following N stitches
( N sts ) = number of stitches after nishing this round / row

Rd(s) = round(s)

rem = remaining
SC = single crochet = (Insert hook in indicated stitch, YO, pull through loop, YO and pull through both loops on hook)
slst = slip stitch = ( insert hook in indicated stitch, YO and pull through both loops on hook)

st(s) = stitch(es)

YO = yarn over

Special crochet techniques:

Crochet in spiral rounds

When you crochet in spiral rounds you do not turn or join the round. Use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of each round. Move the marker up each time you start a new round. Alternative for stitch marker: you can use different colored yarn for stitch markers too, just place it into the rst stitch of every row/round as you go.

Crochet in rows

When you crochet rows you need to turn your work, make 1 turning chain, if the next row starts with a SC. If the turning chain(s) count as stitch or not is indicated in the row.

Closing up a piece of circular crochet

When you nish working a piece of circular crochet that forms a 3-D-object, you must close the small hole that remains. This is normally completed after stuf ng the piece.
1) Cut the yarn, leaving a long yarn end. Draw the end through the nal loop on the hook and thread it onto a tapestry needle.
2) Insert the needle under the front loop of each stitch around the opening, so the needle goes from the center of the hole to the outside.
3) Pull the tail tight to close the hole. To weave in the loose end insert the needle through the middle of the ring you’ve created and push it through the crochet piece. Cut off the end.

SOME USEFUL HINTS

  1. Stitch count is given in each row/round so you can check your work.
  2. Crochet tightly so you get a clean and rm surface and no lling can shine through. If you crochet very loose, choose a smaller hook size.
  3. You can choose a different kind of yarn with a different gauge. Adjust hook size accordingly. The measurements of the doll will also change.
  4. Fill the doll with ber ll as you go. The rmer as you stuff, the rmer your doll will turn out.
  5. And don’t forget have fun!))

LEGS(x2):

Hook US 1 ½ or 2,5 mm, light green color yarn

Assembling all the parts
Step 1: MUZZLE AND HEAD

Fasten the muzzle with some sewing pins first to find the right placement. Sew the muzzle onto the head.
Use tapestry needle and a yarn tail. (photos 41 42)

Step 2: EMBRODER NOSTRILS, MOUTH AND EYELASHES
Use sewing pins to mark the location of the nostrils and the mouth (photo 43). Embroider the nostrils as two loops loosely and the mouth as one loop loosely. I used a tapestry needle and black yarn.
Tip: sew the nostrils and mouth on with regular sewing thread, when the doll is made for a baby

Use sewing pins to mark the location of the eyelashes (photos 44 – 46). Thread the embroidery floss to a
needle and embroider the eyelashes. I used a tapestry needle and black and milk yarn threads.
Embroider the muzzle along the edge. I used a tapestry needle and yellow yarn thread (I split it and
remove one thread to get more slim thread). (photos 47 – 48)

Step 3: HEAD AND BODY
Make a neat finish of the body (same way as of the muzzle).
Make sure the body is stuffed firmly, especially the neck (it’s even better to overstuff the neck for extra
strength) and sew the head onto the body.

Tip: Use sewing pins to attach the head to the body before sewing to get a symmetrical result. Add a bit
more staffing before closing the seam. (photos 49, 50)

Step 4: ARMS AND BODY
Fasten the arms with sewing pins between rounds 19 and 22 of the body in a slightly diagonal position.
(photos 51, 52) Sew the arms onto the body. Use a tapestry needle and the yarn tails.

Step 5: PATCH AND BODY
Fasten the patch to the body with some sewing pins first to find the right placement. Sew the patch onto the body. Use a tapestry needle and the yarn tail. Thread the black embroidery floss (or black yarn) to a
tapestry needle and embroider 4 of decoration seams. Use photos 53 and 54 as a guide.

Step 6: EMBRODER NAVEL
Embroider a navel as X, using a tapestry needle and black (or pink) yarn thread. (photo 53 – 54)

Step 7: SPIKES, EARS AND HEAD
Fasten the spikes the spikes and ears with some sewing pins first to find the right placement. (photos 55,
56) (plase the ears between Rd 18 and Rd 22 of the head) Sew the spikes and ears onto the head. Use
tapestry needle and yarn tails.

Step 8: TAIL AND BODY
Fasten the tail to the bottom of the back with some sewing pins first to find the right placement between
Rd 2 and Rd 8 of the body (photo 54) Sew the tail onto the body. Use tapestry needle and the yarn tail.

Step 9: WINGS AND BODY
Fasten the wings with some sewing pins first to find the right placement (photo 61) Sew the wings onto the back. Use tapestry needle and yarn tails.

FINISH!
