Girl and Boy Amigurumi Dolls

April 28, 2015

Projects like these make me love the art of crochet so much! You can take one simple pattern and just by changing the color yarn and by adding different embellishments you can transform the whole look! These girl and boy amigurumi dolls are completely customizable and not only could you make a whole family, but you could make them to look like YOUR family! Great gifts and a fun toy for the little ones to play with. The bottoms are weighted with poly-pellets so they sit up straight. Finished dolls are 6 inches tall and 4 inches wide.
Materials:
– Worsted Weight Yarn. I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Beige, Pink, Dusty Blue, Black, Honey, and Chocolate Brown.
– Size G Crochet Hook
– Poly-Pellets
– Poly-Fil Fiber Stuffing
– Tapestry needle
– 6mm Safety Eyes




Abbreviations:
SC = Single Crochet
SC Decrease = Single Crochet Decrease
DC = Double Crochet
Doll Pattern:

Head:
With cream yarn (skin color)
Magic ring, ch 1 and make 10 SC in ring, continue to crochet in rounds
Round 2: 2 SC in each stitch around (20 SC)
Round 3: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next, repeat around (30 SC)
Round 4-8: SC in each stitch around (30 SC)
At this point add on safety eyes (4 stitches apart from each other) between rounds 5 and 6. Stitch on mouth (and eyelashes optional) as well. Weave in ends.
Round 9: SC Decrease, SC in next, repeat around (20 SC)
Round 10: SC in each stitch around (20 SC)
Start stuffing with poly-fil
Round 11: SC Decrease, SC around until top starts to close… SC Decrease until completely shut. Weave loose end through the middle of head and down through bottom. You will use this to sew the head to the body.


Body:
With cream yarn (skin color)
Magic ring, chain 1 and make 10 SC in ring, continue to crochet in rounds
Round 2: 2 SC in each stitch around (20 SC)
Round 3: 2 SC in first stitch, SC in next, repeat around (30 SC)
Round 4-7: SC in each stitch around (30 SC)
Change to shirt color yarn (pink in photo)
Round 8-13: SC in each stitch around (30 SC)
Be sure to stuff with poly pellets and fiberfill BEFORE closing! See picture directions below.
Round 14: SC Decrease, SC in next, repeat around (20 SC)
Round 15: SC in each stitch around (20 SC)
Round 16: SC decrease, SC in next, around until top starts to close… SC Decrease until completely shut.
Fasten off and weave in ends
Arms (make 2):

With cream yarn (skin color)

Magic ring, chain 1 and make 5 SC in ring, continue to SC in rounds
Round 2: 2 SC in each stitch around (10 SC)
Round 3-5: SC in each stitch around (10 SC)
Change to shirt color yarn (pink in photo)
Round 6-7: SC in each stitch around
Round 8: SC Decrease, SC in next 3, repeat around (8 SC)
Round 9: SC in each stitch around (8 SC)
Round 10: 2 SC in first, SC in next 2, repeat around,
Fasten off, stuff, sew shut and sew onto body.

To make tutu:
Add yarn around first row of shirt colored SC stitches on body. Chain 2 and make a DC around the same stitch. Make 2 DC around each stitch all the way around. Join to top of chain 2 and fasten off, weave in ends.
You will want to put your poly-pellets in a little sack. I cut off the bottom of pair of my daughters tights, filled the foot and knotted the top. Place pellet sack in bottom of body piece and fill the rest will poly-fil stuffing.

To make hair, cut strands of yarn about 12 inches long. Hook yarn with your crochet hook in the middle of the 12 inch strands (one at a time). Pull through. Now grab the ends of the yarn (you should have 6 strands because your yarn is now halved) and pull through the loop. Pull tight. Trim yarn after you have covered the top of head.

Get creative! You can braid the hair, put a yarn bow in it, make pig tails or a pony tail and more!

Can’t wait to see your versions of the dolls!

    Poly pellets?! That is EXACTLY the sort of thing I've been looking for so that my own crocheted dolls stand up on their own! Thank you!

    These are great!? I've been itching to try out making one… Just one question. Which side should face out?! I never know what's "inside" and what's "outside"

    Question:
    For the hair directions, it says after you pull through you should have 6 strands… should it read 6” strands??
    Thank you!
