0:00
Great! So this we have this beautiful detail, we can see already starting something here
0:08
I will just cut this thread, we're not gonna use it anymore for the body
0:15
Hide this so it's organized for us to continue working and I'll add here my stitch marker
0:22
Now we move on for round number nine. You will work here four single crochet
0:28
one increase, repeat four times here, okay? And you should have a total of 24 stitches at the end of
0:35
this round. Here you work four single crochet, one increase, repeat all the way until the end
0:43
or four times, and you should have 24 stitches here at the end of this round, okay? Remember to
0:50
count how many stitches you have at the end of each round. This helps a lot, really
0:58
So here I'm arriving my first increase. Super good. And repeat this 1, 2, 3, 4 my increase
1:11
Repeat all the way until the end. And this is how it should be looking like. Nice
1:16
Now we're gonna work here some height of this doll. So for round 10 and 11, you just work here 24 single crochet. Okay
1:26
Very simple. So work your rounds here, that will catch you up later, and we will do some changes here
1:40
Okay, so once you're done, this is the doll, now you'll do another color change here
1:48
you will work back on the other contrast color you are working, the same as the shoes that we made here
1:54
change our color here, and now what's gonna happen here is we will crochet together with
2:03
the skirt, alright? so dress up the skirt and make 24 single crochet working around here
2:11
crocheting together. so let's dress this up here and remember, right? we started the skirt
2:19
with 24 chains and we make 24 single crochet, right? Now we are in the body and we have 24 single
2:26
crochet also from the body. So you will crochet together the one stitch from the skirt and one
2:33
stitch from the body, okay? 24 single crochet here. I will show you the first stitches and
2:44
And maybe the first stitch is a bit more complicated because everything is moving around
2:49
but after the fifth or sixth stitch, it gets much easier. So here, one stitch from the skirt, okay
3:01
And one stitch from the body. You see, I'm trying to move this here. Good
3:06
One stitch from the skirt, stitch from the body. I will put these threads here on top because I want to crochet above it
3:16
One single crochet here. Okay, let's do it again. One stitch from the skirt
3:25
And one stitch here from the body. Okay, super good. Let me put these threads back again here
3:39
And one more time and you keep going like this. One stitch from the skirt, one
3:47
stitch from the body and you make your single crochet. Great, alright work all
3:59
the way around. I will catch you up here on the last stitch. This is how it
4:05
should be looking like you see my threads are here very good so this is the back this is under the
4:13
skirt ah okay now we'll add here those chains remember that we were crocheting in the beginning
4:22
they are here so how we gonna do this is we will work with the big ones first starting from the central stitches from the skirt Okay So let separate here the two chains the ones the big ones And you see here those are the
4:44
stitches from the skirt, from the central part of the skirt. So you will attach one of the chains
4:52
Here you can see the better one of the chains here one another here, okay
4:57
So we're gonna leave them hanging here not actually hanging because we will sew it together
5:03
We you can do it with the Needle crochet needle, but I like it better to crush you need the crochet hook one needle. Yeah
5:12
Or but I like to do it with a sewing needle. I think it's more assertive
5:19
So here I just insert like this first one and I will now add the second one
5:27
Okay, on the stage beside, on the stage next to it. Okay, again
5:35
So you have this here, right? Now you'll just make some simple knot here just to make sure this will remain on its place
5:46
And what we want here is this to be hanged here, you see giving this nice detail on her skirt
5:55
Ta-da! Very simple and very nice. So how are we gonna do this
6:01
We will attach these strings, you know, to the other side on this stitch, on the stitch from the back
6:13
Okay? So this one I will add here. And this is how it should be looking like
6:19
Now with this remaining thread, you see it's not moving here, it's because I'm giving simple
6:26
stitches here inside. So I want this to stay exactly on this base
6:33
So I just insert my needle up from the skirt and down from the skirt with this simple, very
6:41
simple stitch here. You see it's seamless. You cannot see it. If you look down the skirt, you can see here where I did the other stitches
6:49
You see? And this is very nice and secured, the detail of the skirt
6:57
All right? So this is what you're going to do with the other details
7:01
So here is the second big one and the third one we'll add here again
7:08
Make the same process with all of them. And this is how it should be looking like
7:14
Very nice. the back is clear and the sides and the front is with this detail. Now let's move on and we'll start
7:24
here working the creases. For the round number 13 you'll work two single crochet one decrease
7:30
repeat six times and you should have a total of 18 stitches here at the end of this round, okay
7:36
2 single crochet here and 1 decrease, super good
7:46
Work here all the way until the end, normally, and I will catch you up for the next round
7:57
Okay, my other decrease, super good
8:07
So this is how it should be looking like. For the rounds number 13, you will work just 12, uh, 12, 18 single crochet, okay
8:18
If you don't know how to make the invisible decrease, there is the link in the description
8:22
below this video, but you basically grab just the front loop of the stitches
8:28
Alright, once you're done with this round 14, you will work for the next round, round
8:34
number 15, you will sew it together with the arms. And here I want you to pay attention in one thing
8:41
Maybe your tension yarn is a bit different than mine, so to make sure that the arms will
8:44
be in the central position, make sure to have 5 stitches here in the front of the doll
8:52
from one arm to another. So, for example, this is the main stitch
8:56
So here we be starting the arms Okay You count five stitches here You have this as a central stitch right 1 2 3 So for the other side 2 more and then you have 5 stitches I hope I clear here with you
9:13
Find the central stitch, count 2 stitches to one side, 2 stitches to the other side
9:19
and you will have 5 stitches together, right? The central stitch plus 2 on the side and 2 on the other side
9:27
Okay. Or you can follow the pattern. Most probably your pattern will be the same as mine, this is central stitch, 1, 2, 1
9:39
2, 3, here, 1 more here, single crochet. This is just a quick trick for you to make sure that your round, your arms is in the
9:51
correct place. So here you take 1 stitch from the arm, 1 stitch from the body, like you did with the
9:57
the dress, okay? One more stitch here from the arm, one stitch from the body, you have
10:05
three stitches right in the arm. And one the last stitch here, one here, and now you make
10:14
the five single crochet here distance from one side to another, from one arm to another
10:21
So find the five central stitches of the doll and you will place one arm from one side, five
10:32
stitches one arm to the other side. I hope I was clear, okay? If not, leave me in the comment
10:40
and I will take whichever question you have. Okay, so now for the second arm here
10:54
Super good, one stitch is done, second stitch here, and the third and last stitch from the arm
11:14
Okay, that's great. Now let's continue here with this remaining two stitches here from this round
11:28
Alright, super good. Ta-da! Here you, because you're squeezing a lot of dolls, the details can be moving around
11:39
But once you're done, you just organize them. Alright, now for round number 16, you will work again with the decreases
11:46
so you'll make one single crochet and one decrease. So here front loop, front
11:52
loop on the stitch next to it and single crochet. Great, so let's do it one more
12:00
time. One single crochet and one decrease. So here one loop, one loop and that's it
12:14
super good. Once you're done this is how you should be looking your doll. So cute
12:19
very tiny. And let's add a little bit of stuffing material here. I like to add a
12:25
very good amount of stuffing material so it's very firm. And here you will make
12:32
another color change. It's our last color change for this doll, alright? So here you
12:38
work again with the skin tone of your choice. Let's change here. There is also a video tutorial
12:50
showing you like the most used way of changing colors in crochet toy. And now for round number
12:56
17 you will work 12 back loop slip stitch, okay? Just grab the back loop of the stitch and make a
13:05
slip stitch. Okay, back loop here and slip stitch. Great. Work all the way around and
13:15
this is how it should be looking like. And now I will give the simple knot that I
13:21
am telling you about it all this time instead of crocheting on top of it All right now let move on here and start this head For the head you will work in the front loop remaining of the last round
13:42
So here you see this front loop here, that it's remaining here
13:47
This is where you're going to work. So here you will work only increases
13:53
Okay? So for the whole, all the round, you'll make increases. So it's 12 increases, you should have 24 stitches at the end of this round
14:02
So make one increase here in the remaining front loop of the previous
14:07
previous round. I will show you why you were working like this later. Okay
14:17
remaining front loop here, 1 single crochet, 1 increase. Great. And this is how it
14:26
should be looking like. You see the slip stitch? It's facing inside of the doll. So
14:33
this will make a very nice sharp edge between the head you see here, between the
14:40
head and the body. Okay now for round number 19 you will work one single
14:46
crochet, one increase, repeat 12 times and you should have a total here of 36
14:53
stitches. Okay? So work all the way until the end. One single crochet, one increase
15:01
Here just watch out and be careful. Again count how many stitches you have, because
15:07
we have many stitches. We are increasing many stitches in each round here so it
15:13
can be the stitches can be overlapping one on top of each other. So just pay
15:18
attention here. Alright, this is how it should be looking like once you're done
15:22
with this round. Now let's move for round number 20. You will work here 5 single crochet, 1 increase
15:31
repeat 6 times and you should have a total of 42 stitches at the end of this round. Okay? So now
15:38
we are increasing just 6 single crochet per round here so it's easier for the stitch not overlap on
15:45
top of each other a little bit here. And again, just pay attention on the stitches, because you
15:52
can easily eat up one stitch here. And I will stress one more time, count how many stitches you
15:58
have at the end of the rounds. This helps a lot, okay? So here just did my first increase
16:05
and once you're done, we'll move on here for round number 21. You will work 6 single
16:15
crochet, 1 increase, repeat 6 times and you should have a total of 48 stitches at
16:21
the end of the round. Okay? This is the last round with increases
16:26
All right. And here it's my increase
16:42
Super good. So you repeat this all the way around and I will catch you up here
16:48
Super good. You see, this is how it should be looking like and this is what we want
16:52
the head started already with nice shape and I will work here the height of this head
16:58
for round 22 to 28 you'll work just 48 single crochet. So here you can stop your video
17:07
relax and work only your single crochet here. Work all the way from this round and I will catch you
17:13
up once we are done with round number 28. And this is how you should be looking like, look at this
17:20
you can see a little bit of this though. Very nice. Now we will start working the
17:25
the creases, alright? So for round 29 you will work six single crochet, one
17:32
decrease, repeat six times and you should have a total of 42 stitches here at the
17:38
end of this round. And remember we are working only with the invisible
17:42
decrease for crochet toys, okay? If you don't know how to make the invisible
17:47
decrease there is a link in the description or in the top here of this
17:51
video that will lead you to a complete video tutorial but here you see grab just
17:57
the front loop of the next two stitches and you complete your single crochet
18:01
then you have your invisible decrease okay
