Today, the new daily crochet pattern Amigurumi The Snowgirl Doll Akiko Free Crochet Pattern, I want to give you some information about this pattern;
Difficulty level: intermediate
About the Pattern
For this pattern I used only cotton yarn for the body and dress. If you’d like to use anyother kind
of yarn,please do, but keep in mind that different kind of yarns give different results! It’s
recommended that you use the same yarn brand or thickness for all colours. Otherwise the yarn
thickness could cause a gauge difference.
You should also know how to connect 2 legs, sc, hdc, inc, mr and dec in order to finish th
pattern. This pattern is very easy to make once you get the hang of it! 🙂
Size
Use crochet hook 1,50mm and 3mm. The doll will be anything between 13cm without hair bow and
depending on how tight/loose you crochet. The abbreviations I used are common US terms. If a
line says “sc3, inc, sc5″ then it means you’ll have to repeat the action inside the * until end of
round and continue the action after the comma.
Often I write ‘3sc’ which means you increase by making 3 single crochets in one stitch.
Abbreviations that are used:
Mr = magic ring
ch = chain
st = stitch
sc = single
crochet
inc = increase
dec = single crochet 2 together OR skip
stitch
sl st = slip stitch
FLO = front loop only
BLO = back loop only
Tr cr = treble crochet
x = repeat
dc = double crochet
Materials
The brand cotton yarn that I used is Scheepjes Maxi Bonbon.
- 1,5 mm. Crochet hook

New at crocheting legs together?
Look at this picture. 12st per leg you crocheted (24 total with both legs) and 2ch in the middle(4 in total
when you crochet around) and you end up with a total of 28st in total at the end of the whole round.
How to insert wire
Take twice as long as you need and fold wire in half. Twist it around itself until you have what looks like in
the first drawing.
Then add another folded and twisted wire into the second leg. See pictures.
If you don’t twist the wire, it will break while you play with your doll.
Now wrap tape around the wire.
Bend a loop on top so no wire will stick out of the head later on.
