He may only be an experimental physicist, but Leonard is delightful. This pattern combines my love of design with one of my favorite TV shows. Leonard is just one of the characters I’ve designed for crocheters looking for a little nerd action.

Any combination of yarn and hook size that yields a dense fabric without noticeable holes is fine.

Materials needed:

• worsted weight yarn
• crochet hook
• 2 9mm 2-piece black plastic eyes
• polyester fiber fill
• stitch marker
• row counter

This is a small doll (6” / 15 cm), and you don’t need very much of any color yarn. You will need yarn for:

• hair
• skin
• shirt
• jacket
• hoodie
• pants
• shoes (black + white)
• embroidery floss for glasses
