ABBREVATIONS;
ch = Chain
sc = Single Crochet
hdc = Half Double Crochet
dc = Double Crochet
BLO = Back Loop Only
FLO = Front Loop Only
dec = invisible decrease stitch
inc = increase stitch (Eg. if the pattern calls
for an inc, then you work 2 sc on a st. If it’s
dc-inc, then you work 2 dc on a st. If it’s
hdc-inc, then you work 2 hdc on a st.
shell = more than 2 stitches are worked in
the same space. (Eg. If the pattern calls for a
5-sc-shell, then you work 5 sc into one
specied st. If it’s 9-dc-shell then you work
9 dc into one specic st.)
tog = (abv of “together”) more than 2 sts
are joined (eg. If the pattern calls for a
sc3tog, then you join 3 sts using sc. If it’s
dc4tog, then you join 4 sts using dc.
SIZE

EYES;
Please note that the method I
used is very crucial, you may
want to use safety eyes instead if
you nd it hard to follow.
Step 1: Draw the desirable eyes
pattern on a white cloth using
ink black pen.
Step 2: Color the eyes by drawing at the back of the cloth using
ball point pen.
Step 3: Fully coat the eyes with
transparent nail polish, front and
back.
Step 4: Cut the eyes out and glue on the face.
Leave 5 to 6 stitches between the
eyes. Before draw the eyes on
cloth, you may try to draw
dierent eyes pattern on paper,
cut it out and attach on the face
to check the nal look of the doll.
The doll will look cuter if the eyes
are in oval shape.
HAIR – FRINGE;
Using magenta yarn. We now
start to work on the fringe.
Crochet loosely to avoid over
curled hair strands. You may refer
to diagram below for a clearer
picture.
Row 1: ch 20, place a stitch
marker, continue to make ch 12
more.

made just now, sl st in the loop
where we placed the marker. [12]

Thread a strand of same color
yarn from the start of the 20
chains to the end and
tighten it. Then, x the
middle point on top of the head
and slowly adjust the strands to
cover the head fully. As you
adjusting, use sewing pins to x
the hair strands one by one.
Lastly, use the yarn needle to sew
the hair on the head.
