PATTERN
Join the legs with a piece of yarn first,
so this way the legs stay in place while
you make the round of single crochet.
Leave the piece of yarn there, don’t take
it off, it will help to close the gap that
forms when you join the legs.
The l ast round of each leg has 15 single
crochet, so, when joining and crocheting
around the legs together, we will finish
having 30 single crochet.
So, let’s continue with the body and using
magenta yarn.
Round 30: This is the round of joining the
legs that we’ve been talking about. So
join the legs and make a round of single
crochet around both legs. (30)

Hair 3 4
Use brown yarn. Cut strands of yarn of
the desired length of hair. I decided to
make the strands 17-18 in. long (45 cm).
I used around 84 strands of yarn for the
hair, but feel free to make more or less if
you think that your doll needs it.

Step by step instructions:

1. Cut strands of yarn
2. Insert hook. 5 6
3. Pull yarn through loop.
4. Yarn over.
5. Pull yarn through loop.
6. Continue attaching strands of yarn
into every stitch of rounds 13 and 14 of
the hair wig (84 stitches in total, since
rounds 13 and 14 have 42 stitches each).
Add more hair if you desire.
7. Use another strand of yarn to make a

pony tail.
8. You can wrap a strand of yarn of a
different color around the pony tail.
