Make your own Engerdje! The voodoo doll can sit on its own and makes for a fun, creepy friend that can also be used as a pincushion. You can really have fun making this one and adapt the doll however you like! Go for extra gore and add intestines or keep it clean with just the occasional pieces of torn flesh mended together.

Each step is clearly explained and the pattern has accompanying photos showing every step of the process. The pattern is beginner-friendly and also a fun project for advanced crocheters. Don’t hesitate to reach out if there are any questions!

The pattern contains instructions for the entire doll, including the option to make the doll with and without intestines. There are guidelines for how to make the intestines and how to embroider the details.
