PART 1: Head and Helmet

NOTE: Since white thread is hard to photograph, for some of the step by step pictures, I
have used brown thread. Continue using the color the pattern suggests.
Start with Lizbeth 20, color ecru. Join rounds with a slip stitch and chain 1.
Round 1: mr, ch 1, 9 sc in the ring – 9 sts
Round 2: 9 inc – 18 sts
Round 3: (sc, inc) x 9 – 27 sts
Rounds 4 – 9: 27 sc
Round 10: (sc, dec) x 9 – 18 sts
Stuff the head well.
Round 11: 9 dec – 9 sts
Fasten off and secure the stitches (see tutorials on Page 2).
Sew the eyes with black thread on Round 7, 6 stitches apart.

HELMET
Start with Lizbeth 20, color white. Crochet in continuous rounds.
Round 1: mr, ch 1, 9 sc in the ring – 9 sts
Round 2: 9 inc – 18 sts
Round 3: (sc, inc) x 9 – 27 sts
Round 4: (8 sc, inc) x 3 – 30 sts
Rounds 5 – 8: 30 sc
Round 9: 10 sc, ch 5 and sk 4, 16 sc – 31 sts (including the 5 ch)
Round 10: 10 sc, 5 sc in BLO of ch, 16 sc – 31 sts
Rounds 11: 31 sc
NOTE: Add one more round of single crochet if needed.
Put the helmet on the head and adjust it so the larger opening is centered on the face.
Round 12: sl st

The smaller opening you made by skipping 4 and chaining 5 on Round 9 will be used to
start the body. It needs to be at the bottom of the head over where you ended the head of
the astronaut earlier. See pictures below.
Round 12: sl st

That smaller opening needs to fall between the eyes. Since we will continue with the body
from there, the opening has to be aligned with the face so the body will not look twisted.

Once you have adjusted the helmet to where you would like it to be, continue with Round
12.
Round 12: 31 sl st

Fasten off.
Before finishing off, sew the helmet to the head a few times. This will ensure that the head
will not move inside the helmet and the eyes will stay centered.

PART 2: Body

Start the neck in the 5 chains and 4 skipped stitches from Round 9 of the helmet.
Continue crocheting with white Lizbeth 20 thread. Insert the hook in the 2nd st (from right
to left). You will start in the stitches you skipped and not in the FLO of the chain you made.
Crochet in continuous rounds.
Round 1: 9 sc
Round 2: (sc, 4 inc) x 2 – 16 sts
Round 3: (sc, inc) x 8 – 24 sts
Fold the body. Mark 5 sts on each side for arms. These arm spaces should align with the
face of the astronaut.

Continue crocheting the body from where you stopped. The 5 stitches on either side of the
body will be left empty for now.
Follow the steps below to make Round 4.
STEP 1: sc until you get to the thread marking the 5 sts left for the first arm (I made 6 sc).
Insert the hook again in the same stitch and in the stitch on the other side. See picture
below.

STEP 2: Make 1 sc and turn your work (the eyes should be facing you).
STEP 3: 1 sc in next 6 sts
STEP 4: When you get to the thread marking the 5 sts for the second arm, insert your
hook in the same st and in the st on the other side (same as above). Make 1 sc.

At the end of Round 4, you should have 14 sts.

Round 6: (6 sc, inc) x 3 – 24 sts

stitches you are leaving on either side align with the armholes you made earlier.

PART 3: Legs and Arms

Continue from where you stopped after Round 9. Each leg is made with 7 sts. Crochet the
legs in continuous rounds.
LEG1

Insert your hook into the last st you made a sc and then through the st on the other side
(the same as how we created armholes earlier). Make 1 sc.
Turn over your work and make 1 sc in the next st. Sc until the end of Round 1. You should
have 7 sts.

Round 6: 5 dec, 1 sc in last – 6 sts
Fasten off and secure the stitches.

LEG 2
To begin, attach thread to any one stitch on the back side of the doll and make 1 sc.
Continue following the instructions for Leg 1.
Finish the legs following the tutorials on Page 2 of this pattern.
Sew the middle 6 stitches.

ARMS
The arms are made with the 5 stitches you left on each side of the body.

Crochet the arms in continuous rounds.


You can start each arm on either side of the body (front or back) but I always start from the
back. Using the white thread, insert the hook in any one stitch, YO once, pull through and
ch 1. Then make 1 sc in that same stitch.
You will sc around for 6 rounds. For Round 1, connect the two sides (front and back) the
same way you did for the body and for the legs (see picture below).
