Here at TOFT, we are thrilled to capture one of the most iconic and recognisable figures in the world in crochet form – the Statue of Liberty! A symbol of freedom, inspiration and hope, Lady Liberty is teeming with symbolism – from her crown which represents light, to the tablet she holds inscribed with July 4 1776 in Roman numerals to note American independence, to the broken shackle and chains at her feet to mark the abolition of slavery – all ideals that inspired the Frenchman Édouard de Laboulaye and sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi to create the colossal structure and present it to the people of the United States as a gift.

This crochet Statue of Liberty doll is a truly remarkable tribute to a national treasure and makes a perfect souvenir project, whether you’ve travelled to New York to visit Lady Liberty herself or not!

This Statue of Liberty doll project is based on the Edward’s Emporium collection of amigurumi crochet dolls and costumes designed by Kerry Lord. Made using amigurumi crochet techniques, your finished doll will become an heirloom for generations to come. This stunning pattern is crocheted in our luxury wool DK yarn and makes the perfect addition to your doll collection.

YOU WILL NEED: To complete your Statue of Liberty you will need a few added extras including a 3mm crochet hook, toy stuffing, Black yarn for facial features and a wool needle. Find everything you need in our haberdashery section.

MEASUREMENTS: When finished your Statue of Liberty doll will be approximately 38cm from feet to top of crown.

SKILL LEVEL 3: This kit is more suitable for those with some crochet experience.

IT WILL TAKE: Approximately 20+ hours crochet time.
