It would be wise to use a stitch marker and place it in the first stitch of the round to mark the beginning of it. Move the marker up to the first stitch of the next round after finishing the previous one. If you need to change color, do it always at the end of the previous round. Start the last stitch of the round with the old color. Change the color right before you draw through all loops on hook to complete stitch. You can easily sew the toy together when you leave each piece a long yarn tail. Stitch explanation Decrease (sc2tog) - Insert hook into st and draw up a loop. Insert hook into next st and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through all 3 loops on hook. Comments In this pattern every detail starts with a magic ring. If you don`t want to use that, you can easily start like this: Chain 2. Work 6 sc in first ch. Continue from round 2.

PATTERN HEAD Crocheted from top to bottom. 1: Color A. Magic ring and 6 sc into it. 2: Work 2 sc in each st around = 12 3: (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 18 4: (sc in each of next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 24 5: (sc in each of next 3 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 30 6: (sc in each of next 4 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 36 7: (sc in each of next 5 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 42 8: (sc in each of next 6 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 48 9-18: Sc in each st around

Now it is time to fasten safety eyes. Find the rows 15 and 16. Insert the first eye between them, then count 5 holes to the left and insert the second eye in the next hole.

HAT

Use colors B and C to make the hat. Start with color C. After two rows change to color B. Continue switching colors every two rows. (You will find the precise instructions about how to change color on the first page, section „About the pattern“.)

(The last stripe of color C will remain one row wide)

Leave a long yarn tail (about 80 cm). Fill about a half of the hat and set it into place.

Use a long yarn tail to sew the hat onto the head. Lead the yarn through the holes in the next-to-last

row, skip one st, bring the yarn out through the sts of the last row (see the photo on the left).

With a thinner cotton thread embroider a mouth for the doll.

LEGS AND BODY

Making the body starts with crocheting the legs and then joining them, so they smoothly become the

body.

Leg (make 2)

1: Color A. Magic ring and 6 sc into it. 2: Work 2 sc in each st around = 12 3: (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 18 4: (sc in each of next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 24 5-6: Sc in each st around

7: (Sc2tog) rep 12 times = 12

8: Color C. Sc in each st around

Fill the tip of the leg firmly.

9: 2 sc in each st around = 24

10: (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) rep 12 times = 36

11-13: Sc in each st around

14: (sc in each of next 4 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 30

Bind off the first leg. Leave a yarn tail about 20 cm long and cut the yarn.

Put Leg 1 aside till you prepare Leg 2.

NB! Do not cut the yarn after you have finished the second leg, because we will continue connecting

the legs right after.

15: Join the two legs together. Continuing with Leg 2, sc in each of next 27 sts.

Stitch the 28th sc into Leg 1, starting with the first st in what would have been the next row.

Continue around Leg 1, and sc in each of next 26 sts as well. You should now have 54 sc.

The last 3 sts from both legs were left out of the work. Don`t worry, we will close that hole later on!

16: With the first sc connect back to Leg 2. When you`ve made the first sc, your work should look like

this (see the photos below). Sc in each st around.

17-18: Sc in each st around

Use darning needle and the yarn tail you left for the first leg to close the hole between the legs.

19: (sc in each of next 7 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 48

20-23: Sc in each st around

24: (sc in each of next 6 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 42

25-28: Sc in each st around

29: (sc in each of next 5 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 36

30-33: Sc in each st around

Start filling the body and add stuffing as the work progresses.

Stuff not too heavily, so the doll will remain soft enough to cuddle.

34: (sc in each of next 4 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 30

35-36: Sc in each st around

37: (sc in each of next 3 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 24

38-39: Sc in each st around

40: (sc in each of next 2 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times = 18

Find a proper place for the head. Use the yarn tail you left for the body to sew the head and body

together.

ARM (make 2)

1: Color A. Magic ring and 6 sc into it. 2: Work 2 sc in each st around = 12 3: (sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 18 4-5: Sc in each st around 6: (Sc2tog) rep 9 times = 9

Fill the tip of the arm quite heavily with fiberfill. You may want to use the scissors or crochethook to do that. Hereafter change colors B and C after every two rows. Start with Color C.

7: Sc in each st around

8: 2 sc in each st around = 18

9: (sc in each of next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times = 24

10-13: Sc in each st around

14: (sc in each of next 6 sts, sc2tog) rep 3 times = 21

15: Sc in each st around

16: (sc in each of next 5 sts, sc2tog) rep 3 times = 18

17: Sc in each st around

Stuff the sleeve part lightly with fiberfill. Do not add any stuffing hereafter.

18: (sc in each of next 4 sts, sc2tog) rep 3 times = 15

19: Sc in each st around

20: (sc in each of next 3 sts, sc2tog) rep 3 times = 12

21: Sc in each st around

22: (sc in each of next 2 sts, sc2tog) rep 3 times = 9

23-24: Sc in each st around

Attach the arms between the body and the head using the stitches of the seam.

Using the darning needle bring the yarn out through the st you made the last sc into.

Place the collar around the neck, leave the open part on the back.

Find the first sc on the other side of the collar and bring the yarn through. Pull the sides together.

Secure the collar with several stitches.

And your sweet Cuddly-baby is ready!
