PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS: This pattern is written using US terminology and is worked in continuous rounds unless otherwise
stated. If Emma is made with the materials described, she is 17 cm/6.5 inches tall from the top of her head to her feet.

SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate

MATERIALS REQUIRED (DESCRIPTIONS IN BRACKETS INDICATE THOSE USED IN THE

PICTURED EXAMPLE):
1. Yarn (Krea Deluxe Organic Cotton 50 g yarn in (A) Colour 01 or White, (B) Colour 08 or Light Pink, (C) Colour 12 or Medium Pink, (D)

Colour 13 or Dark Pink, (E) Colour 30 or Brown, (F) Colour 46 or Beige). One ball of each colour is sufficient.

2. Crochet hook in accordance with the yarn you use (2.5 mm hook)

3. Fibrefill / toy stuffing

4. 6 mm black plastic safety eyes

5. Black (#310) embroidery thread (DMC Six Strand Cotton Thread)

6. Stitch markers, darning and embroidery needles

7. Cosmetic blusher with brush

8. Wooden skewer (optional)

ABBREVIATIONS: BLO = back loop only | ch = chain | dc = double crochet | dc-inc = double crochet increase
dec = decrease | FLO = front loop only | hdc = half double crochet | hdc-inc = half double crochet increase | inc = increase |
rnd = round | sc = single crochet | sl st = slip stitch | st = stitch

A VERY QUICK GUIDE TO THE CROCHET STITCHES USED IN THIS PATTERN:

1. Chain (ch): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through loop on hook.

2. Double crochet (dc): Yarn over, insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there should be 3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop

through both loops left on hook (there should be 2 loops left on hook), yarn over, pull loop through remaining loop on hook.

3. Double crochet increase (dc-inc): Work two double crochets into the same stitch.

4. Decrease (dec): I prefer the “invisible” decrease unless your fabric will be visible from both sides. For the invisible decrease, insert

hook into front loop of first stitch (from the front and under). Repeat into front loop of next stitch. Yarn over and pull loop through two

loops on hook, yarn over and pull loop through two loops on hook.

5. Half double crochet (hdc): Yarn over, insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there should be 3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull

loop through all three loops on the hook.

6. Half double crochet increase (hdc-inc): Work two half double crochets into the same stitch.

7. Increase (inc): Work two single crochets into the same stitch.

8. Magic ring: Wrap yarn around fingers to form a loop. Insert hook through middle of loop. Pull working end of yarn through ring and chain

the required number of stitches through. Pull the yarn ends to close the loop.

9. Single crochet (sc): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there should be 2 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop through both

loops on hook.

10. Slip stitch (sl st): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch and loop on hook.
