Melody the Doll is crocheted from the bottom of her feet to the top of her head as one piece, even the arms are joined to the body. Melody’s shoes, dress and headband are removable. You will need to know basic to intermediate crochet and amigurumi skills. I do not recommend her for beginners unless you are an advanced beginner and want a challenge - you will need a basic understanding of crocheting in the round, making a magic circle, how to change yarn colors, and making an invisible single crochet decrease. This is a photo tutorial so there are plenty of pictures for reference.

You will need:

2.00mm crochet hook
DK and/or Worsted weight yarn colors of choice (I used paintbox yarn cotton dk for the doll but you are welcome to use worsted or larger but you will need to use larger eyes if this is the case)
2 - 6mm safety eyes
stuffing
scissors
sewing pins
yarn needle
fabric glue that is permanent and washable (not tacky glue!), I use Fabri-Tac.

Size: Melody is about 11” from her feet to the top of her head if you follow the yarn weight and hook size that I used in making her.

The pattern is in .PDF format and is 33 pages of detailed instructions that include plenty of photos for reference to guide you through the process of making her. If you have any questions feel free to message or e-mail me.
