A Humpty Dumpty doll pattern - based on the well known nursery rhyme!

This amigurumi doll is worked in several pieces, a majority of which are worked in the round.

This project does not require a particular yarn weight - I used lightweight yarn (4-ply 100% cotton) and a 1.75mm crochet hook to create the doll pictured.

Please refer to your yarn label to find the appropriate hook size for your chosen yarn - when making amigurumi it is recommended that you use 1 - 2 hook sizes down from the recommended size. The size of your doll will differ based on yarn weight used.

IMPORTANT: If giving the finished doll to a child, please take additional safety precautions (such as embroidering eyes instead of using safety eyes, not using wires internally and ensuring all sewn or decorative parts are extremely secure).

This pattern includes the following crochet techniques and stitches:
Working in the round, magic ring, chain, double crochet (UK), increase, decrease, invisible decrease (instructions provided), back loops only, front loops only, puff stitch (instructions provided), colour changes, top stitching and slip stitch.

Materials:

• Lightweight / 4 ply Yarn (less than 50g -I used Infinity Hearts Rose 8/4 yarn) in Red, blue, eggshell (cream) and pink and / or white
