Isla the Little Doll
Isla is the coolest Little Doll - nothing phases her, she always has a positive outlook. She is also one of those thick-skinned people who will never be seen with a coat on. With the change of seasons, she’ll put on a beanie and a vest but that’s it!
Difficulty: Intermediate, US terminology
Materials:
2.5m hook/C-2 (US)
4ply yarn/fingering
Less than 50g yarn in NUDE, GREEN, MINT and SAND
7mm safety eyes
Scissors
Tapestry needle
Polyester toy stuffing
Stitch marker
2 x clear hair ties (optional)
Abbreviations:
ch = chain
MR = magic ring
sc = single crochet
hdc = half double crochet
dc = double crochet
inc = single crochet increase (2 sc in one stitch)
dec = decrease (sc 2 together)
sl st = slip stitch
BLO = back loops only
FLO = front loops only
(..) = repeat the space in brackets the given number of times
.. = total number of stitches
Notes:
A yarn with no stretch is best for amigurumi, I ordinarily use cotton or cotton blend.
Amigurumi is usually stitched in the round (unless it says otherwise).
For this pattern, the following yarns were used:
o NUDE = Bendigo Woollen Mills 4ply cotton in “816 Parchment”
o GREEN = Hobbii Rainbow 8/4 cotton in “24 Mint”
o MINT = Hobbii Rainbow 8/4 cotton in “25 Pastel Mint”
o SAND = Hobbii Rainbow 8/4 cotton in “46 Old Rose”
I crochet loosely and use a 2.5mm hook with 4ply yarn. Generally, the hook you use for amigurumi will be a smaller than for other crochet as you want the stitches tight to keep stuffing from showing and for any attachments to stay in place.
The yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of the finished item. My Isla the Little Doll is approximately 24cm tall (9 ½ inches).
I have used safety eyes for this pattern but you may embroider. Please ensure that there are no loose fittings.
