Bee Doll Loïs is made as a sister to Ladybug Doll Macy and as a friend to Daffodil doll Suïsen and measures about 24,5 cm’s when I crochet her with a 2.0mm hook. When you go up a hooksize, she might be bigger, but proportions remain intact. This means gauge isn’t important.

The pattern for Loïs is available in Dutch and English (US)

Amigurumi doll Loïs is a crocheted doll with an attached dress inspired on bees. She has a removable little cape to give her the illusion of wings.

Hook:
This doll is crocheted with a 2.0mm hook and the suggested yarn above. It’s important to crochet tight enough, since you don’t want the fibrefill to show. Also don’t crochet to tightly it’ll be a strain on your wrists. If you crochet loosely, please go down a size. If you crochet tightly go up a size. The proportions of this girl stay intact.

Gauge
Gauge is not important for this pattern. Different hooks and different yarn give you a different size for your doll, but the proportions stay intact.

Notions
Needle, scissors, fibrefill, clasp.
