Ginza the Gamegirl
** PATTERN ONLY, no physical item will be shipped **
Ginza the Gamegirl is a ragdoll style crochet pattern for intermediate crocheters. Rows are worked in the round for the pieces, which are then crocheted together and stuffed. I have included pictures, yarn and hook recommendations to assist.
Difficulty: Intermediate, US terminology
Materials:
2.75mm hook/C-2 (US)
8ply yarns/DK or Light Worsted
150g yarn in PINK
Less than 50g in BLUE, GREY, RED and BLACK
Scissors
Tapestry needle
Polyester toy stuffing
Stitch marker (optional)
Abbreviations:
ch = chain
MR = magic ring
sc = single crochet
inc = single crochet increase (2 sc in one stitch)
dec = single crochet decrease (sc 2 together)
sl st = slip stitch
(..) = repeat the space in brackets the given number of times
.. = total number of stitches
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 Ginza is approximately 34cm long (13 inches).
For this pattern, I’ve used the following yarns:
o PINK = Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply cotton in 805 Pink Rose
o BLUE = Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply cotton in 808 Arctic
o GREY = Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply cotton in 818 Glacier
o RED = Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply cotton in 819 Pomegranate
o BLACK = Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK in 402 Pure Black
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. This will ensure that you have the correct colour yarn on the hook for the upcoming stitch. I recommend that you drop the yarn at the back when changing colours and pick up again when needed instead of carrying the yarn (working over it) as this may cause the stitches to become bulky when you have more than 2 yarns on the go.
For the front body panel, the pattern is broken down into an initial for the colour and the number of stitches you will use that colour for.
