A symbol of power and strength, Diana the Wonderful is a fun ragdoll style pattern for young and old to enjoy. What could be more fun that super powers?

Diana the Wonderful is a ragdoll style amigurumi pattern for which requires intermediate skills. The pattern is written in English using US terms and my finished Diana measures 25cm (approx. 10 inches) tall. Your crochet tension, yarn and hook size used will determine the size of your finished item.

You will need:

• 3.00mm hook/C-2 (US)
• 8ply/DK yarns in BLACK, NUDE, WHITE, YELLOW, SILVER, BLUE and RED, less than 50g of each
• BLACK 4ply yarn or embroidery thread
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle
• Polyester toy stuffing
• Stitch marker (optional)

Notes:

• A yarn with no stretch is best for making toys, I use cotton or cotton blend.
• The yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of the finished item. My Diana the Wonderful is approximately 25cm tall (approx. 10 inches).
• For this pattern, I’ve used the following yarns: o BLACK = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col. 3093 Black o NUDE = Cotton Kings 8/8 in col. 36 Beige o WHITE = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col. 3660 White o SILVER = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col. 3965 Grey Blue o YELLOW = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col. 3662 Sunflower o RED = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col. 3672 Poppy o BLUE = Stylecraft Classique Cotton DK in col. 3671 Azure
• This pattern is worked in rows (unless otherwise stated) and you will ch 1 at the end of each row and turn before starting the next row.
• You will make the front and back for each piece then sc around to join together. Where you would like distinct corners “sc ch sc” in the corner stitch.
• When changing colour, pull through the new colour on the stitch before you need it. You will have the correct colour yarn on the hook for the upcoming stitch. I recommend dropping the yarn at the back when changing colours and pick up again when needed instead of carrying the yarn (working over it).
