 Recommendations:

I crochet with mixed type of stitches (yarn under, then yarn over); if you crochet yarn
over, you will need to control the shift stitches by yourself.
Crochet tight so that there are no holes in the fabric.
Crochet in spiral rounds unless otherwise stated.
The finished toy made from materials listed below is about 25 cm (9.8 in).
In this pattern I use the US terminology.

Face sculpting:

Do some sculpting as in the pictures. Take a long strong thread. I used the same yarn as
for the doll’s body. Insert the needle as close to the eyes as possible.
Inset the threaded needle into the head in the central point on the bottom and put it out
in point 1. Then insert into point 2 and put it out in starting point on the bottom of the
head. Now do sculpting for the other eye. Run the needle through the head from the
bottom of it to point 3. Then insert into point 4 and put it out in starting point on the
bottom of the head. Pull the thread carefully, doing sculpting evenly for the both eyes,
try not to pull too tight. Make a knot and hide the tails inside the detail.

Make the whites – the stitches on the outer side of the eyes with a white thread.

threads into the hole in the bottom of the head. When you are done with sculpting,

Mark with pins 2 points: the upper line is between the 18th and 19th rounds of the head,
the lower one is between the 21st and 22nd rounds. apart from the eye side edge. Sew on
the ears to the head.

between the 78th and 79th rounds of the neck (look at the photo).

next page). Cut off the thread, leave a long tail. Thread the needle with the other tail.
Insert it into the head hole and put out in the top of the head, step 1sc aside from the
