ABOUT THE PATTERN

The pattern comes as one PDF file with detailed instructions on everything you need to know to crochet Claire. It can be followed step-by-step and is accompanied by photos for all the trickier parts.

Next to the written pattern, the PDF includes a list of all needed materials & tools, a table of all stitch types/abbreviations required for this pattern, and also a tutorial section with detailed explanations for some of the more unusual used stitches and techniques.

If you find any typos, mistakes, or unclear parts, please let me know and I’ll do my best to correct & update the pattern!

ABOUT THE FINISHED DOLL

With the hook size (3mm) and yarn type (worsted weight) I’m using, the final Claire doll is around 23cm tall (standing) and 10cm wide (at the head, which is the widest part). Her wingspan is around 25cm.

Claire can’t stand on her own without any additional support (in all pictures where she’s shown standing, I’ve used a small wooden stick to keep her upright). Sitting is no problem!

Claire’s clothes are made of two parts (dress & scarf/cape) that can be taken on and off separately. Maybe you want to create her clothing in different colors - I also made her a blue version!
