Free Doll pattern by Yarn Over with Natasha, create a cute doll following this free crochet-a-long

Meet Molly the crochet doll

Meet Molly! My very first amigurumi doll! I had so much fun creating this little girl. I always had this idea of a designing a doll, and I have tried before but I was never happy with the end results.

But if you know me as a person, I never give up that easily so I went back to my sketching pages and tried again, this time was a success and Molly was created!

Molly is minimal sewing pattern. I tried to design her a simple as I could so that even someone that hasn’t been crocheting for long time can make her. 

The sewing she requires is her head on to her body, the hair “Cap”, hair buns and bows. 

Her arms are inserted while you crochet her body and her legs are mobile, so she is able to sit or stand. 

Her dress consist out of four sections, the front panel, two back panels and the skirt. The panels are slipstitched together.

Molly will be a FREE crochet a long pattern starting on the 16th of January and it will continue till 2nd of February. 

All the section will be posted here on my blog! To get notified join my email list or my FACEBOOK GROUP.

You can download the PDF and access the template to Canva and switch up the dress, shoes, hair and bow colours of your dolly to fit your creations! Canva is FREE and you can use your phone of PC to access the design, just download the Canva app.

      Hi Jackie, Since I’m a ambassador for Elle yarns, I only use their product. I made her with Charity Pullskein double knit. But I would also recommend Elle Gold or Elle cottons.
