Hello there! It's Anna here and welcome to Little Crochet Farm! Today I will show
0:07
you how to make this little doll. This is my version of Juliet. I use 100% cotton
0:14
yarn to make them and a 2 mm crochet hook. I also made a set with Romeo, right
0:23
I did Juliet and this is Romeo and I will be sharing this with you in a couple
0:28
of days. So for now we will start crocheting this doll. I hope you enjoy it and now let's
0:35
move on and start the pattern. We'll start here with a magic ring and you will crochet here inside this magic ring six single crochet
0:56
We will work the details of the doll, okay? And we will set on the side, so while we are crocheting the body, we will start adding
1:07
these details that we will start working for now. So this that we are working now is the arms
1:15
So for the arms, you start with the magic ring and you make 6 single crochet inside the
1:19
magic ring. If you don't know how to make the magic ring, there is a link in the description below
1:26
or here on the top right corner of the screen. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Great
1:33
And this video is very detailed, showing you only about the magic ring
1:37
But here you can pretty much see how it's done. So you close tight your magic ring and you work for round 2 to 4, 6 single crochet
1:49
So you work 1 single crochet inside each stitch of this round
1:56
Okay, here I'm showing you very detailed how it's done
2:16
It's a small piece of this arm and you can see it's curled outside
2:23
stitches are the tension of the stitches it's making the stitch to curl and we will fix this
2:30
soon. I want to show you now that every beginning of my toys I like to double secure the magic ring
2:39
so I add in the stuffing in the sewing needle I add the tail and I just
2:46
go around the first round here just to make sure that it's going to be very tight
2:51
all right okay this is good and now we need to put these stitches outside
2:58
okay it was curling to the inside and you can see better the detail here
3:07
great this looks super good and now i will continue here for the rounds
3:14
good so once you've finished with the rounds only with six single crochet
3:19
you will make a color change and continue working these arms, alright
3:30
Great! So for the round number five you will work six single crochet. So here
3:36
still we are not making creases or decreases, we are just working single
3:41
crochet. I will start crocheting here on top of these two threads here so it's
3:50
fastened already and then I can cut this yarn but if you feel uncomfortable
3:56
crocheting on top of these two threads you can just give a simple knot. That is
4:01
because the knot will be hidden inside the arm so that's up to your is your
4:07
choice. All right, super good. And here now we will work for the next round and
4:22
it the final round So hide your tails inside of this arm we will not add stuffing material It not necessary here unless you want to make the arms a little bit more firm but it very small detail there is no need for stuffing material here Great What
4:40
gonna happen here now is you work three single crochet, you will crochet together
4:44
one side to another. I will show you this how. So you insert the needle in the
4:51
first and in the last stitch of the round. The first stitch may be a little bit harder for you
4:59
to see here, the first and the last stitch, and you make one single crochet here. And you move
5:07
for the next one, it's already easier here this one for you to see. So one stitch here, one stitch
5:12
to the other side. Alright, so you have six stitches for the arm, right? You fold it and then you will
5:19
have three on each side and you will crochet them together. Okay, that's super good. So one arm
5:28
it's ready. I will cut this yarn and fasten off. We don't need here a piece for sewing because we
5:35
will crochet together the arm with the body once we reach this part of the toy. Okay
5:41
Okay, so here I'll just show you how I fasten this. All right, insert here in the sewing needle and we just hide this tail in the stitches
6:05
here from the yarn. All right, this is enough
6:24
Cut this yarn here very close to the arm and you make another one following the same instructions
6:34
Okay, so make one more and we'll settle, we'll leave this on the side for now
6:41
And here I'm starting now the skirt, okay, so we'll start with the slip knot here and you will chain 24
6:53
So here you'll make 24 chains, all right. I'll move this a little bit faster because it's just the chains
7:04
Super good! So once you have the 24 chains, you will start crocheting in the first chain ever
7:13
here this one, and this will close for us a circle. Okay, so you will start working in the rounds here
7:24
So on this first one you will start and you will make the first round with 24 single crochet, so
7:30
you will make one single crochet inside each of the chains. Okay
7:38
Alright, so this is very simple. You will make one single crochet inside each of these chains
7:45
and once you're done, we'll move on to make some increases. But now for now, it's just one single
7:51
crochet inside each of this chain. Okay? If you have any questions, please leave them in the comment
7:57
box below, I will be happy to help you. And if you need the written pattern, it's in the
8:03
description below here that will take you to the website. Okay, so this is how it should be
8:12
looking like once you finish with all of the single crochet. You see you have a round, so this is the
8:18
beginning of our skirt. And let me just move my stitch marker here. I like to add my stitch marker
8:24
in the last stitch of the round. Okay, some people put in the first stitch of the round
8:29
some people put in the last. I like to just use a different piece of color yarn and use this as my
8:36
stitch marker and mark the end, the last stitch of the round. So now moving on for round number two
8:44
you will work three single crochet, one increase, repeat six times and you should have a total of
8:49
30 stitches at the end of this round. Ok? So here when I say 1 increase means that you will crochet 2 single crochets inside the same stitch like I just did right here So you have here one two three single crochet and one increase which is two single crochet
9:09
inside the same stitch. Now you'll repeat all the way until the end, and this is how your skirt should be looking
9:16
like for now. Okay, moving on for round number three, you will work four single crochet, one increase
9:26
repeat six times, and you should have a total of 36 stitches at the end of this round
9:32
And this will be the last round with the increases for the skirt
9:37
Okay, so here my fourth single crochet, and now my increase here
9:44
Two single crochet inside the same stitch. So once again, repeat this 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 increase, all the way until the end
9:55
And this is how it should be looking like right now. Good
10:00
So for now on, for this skirt, we are done with increases and we will work round 4 to
10:06
6, just 36 single crochet. So now you'll work here these 3 rounds, rounds number 4, 5 and 6, just single crochet
10:16
And I will catch you up once you are done with this round
10:20
So very simple here. Great. So this is how your skirt should be looking like
10:27
We will cut this yard and fasten off. We don't need to leave here a tail for sewing, because we will not gonna sew the skirt
10:36
We will crochet the skirts together. So here how I do it's the most simple and basic way to fasten this off
10:44
I hide this on the first stitch of this round and now I'm gonna hide this remaining tail on the back of the skirt, okay
10:57
All right, super good. So this is our skirt. Our skirt is ready
11:04
And for this tail, we just leave it like this. We will, when we crochet together, we will hide this in the doll
11:09
All right, so let's set the set this on the side for now. And here we'll work some details for the skirt that again now so we will use it later once we are working later on in this
11:25
In the doll so here you work just chains So this for the first detail you work eight chains, okay, and you just cut it here. You leave a tail here for sewing
11:37
Let me just fasten this off, no need bigger deal here, it's just 8 chains, okay
11:48
So you'll make 2 of these 8 chains, and then you make 2 more with 14 chains, and then you
12:00
make 2 more with 18 chains, okay? So this is the chain that you will work
12:08
So just make this, leave tail for sewing and settle on the side. Alright
12:14
Now we'll start working the doll from the legs to the head
12:18
So here again we'll start with the magic ring. And you will crochet here 6 single crochet inside the magic ring
12:29
So once again we're starting our doll with the magic ring, we did for the arms, now we
12:34
you're doing for the legs. I'll go fast here because you've been there, you
12:45
saw it, how is done. For the second round here you will work two single crochet and
12:51
one increase. You'll repeat two times and you should have eight stitches at the
12:57
end of this round, okay? So you work here one single crochet, two single crochet, and
13:05
here you work your increases, alright? Super good! So I'll repeat this one more
13:14
time, and the same thing that happened with the arms, it will happen with the
13:20
legs So the stitches if it curls to the outside you just roll it back you know and then you can see better the shape of these legs alright Super good Now here what we are going to do is a color change okay So we change the color
13:40
to the beige or to whichever skin tone that you decide to work with
13:46
Okay, and now for the round 3 to 7, you work 8 single crochet
13:58
So here is the same basically as the arms, but instead of having 6 single crochet as
14:03
the arms has, we have here 8 single crochet, okay? So once again here I am crocheting on top of these two tails, of these two threads that
14:14
I'm working and then later I can just cut it off. But you can just give a simple
14:20
knot here since this will be hidden inside the doll. Okay, so now work here
14:27
your detail here all the way until the round number eight. And this is how it
14:34
should be looking like. So let's hide this. Yeah, let's hide this and add a
14:43
little bit of stuffing material here. I say round number eight is round number
14:48
seven. I'm sorry. So here just a little bit of stuffing material, it's enough. You
14:56
don't need to stuff too much. Okay, this looks very nice for me
15:13
Super good. And just like this one, you make another one. Okay, following the same instructions
15:19
But for the other one, you fasten off completely. So one you fasten off, you see here, all the way, no tails here
15:28
And the other one, you don't cut the yarn, we will continue working with this one, okay
15:35
So what you're gonna do here is you'll change your color on the last stitch to your contrast color
15:45
In my case, I'm working with the light pink. So I work with two different shades of pink
15:50
You can work with any color combination you would like. super good. And now here what you're going to do is you will grab this tail, you will
16:04
make two chains here, and you will grab this tail, and you will insert in one of the finished
16:14
legs, in one stitch of the finished leg, okay? I'll pick this one. And here the tail of the
16:22
needle, you'll insert inside of this stitch. Super good! And now we'll start
16:30
crocheting around these legs, okay? So you'll have here in total 20 stitches
16:35
okay? 8 from one side, 8 from the other side, and 4 from the chains, okay? So here
16:43
you have from one chain, one single crochet, another chain, another single crochet
16:52
now here you will make eight single crochet around this leg so again i'm working on top of the threads you can again i'm gonna mention you can just make
17:07
a simple knot here because this knot will be inside of the doll nobody will see it
17:12
i don't know actually why i don't do this sometimes i do actually okay so eight single
17:20
crochet from this first leg and then I arrive here, the last stitch of the first leg, so you count
17:27
okay, 8 single crochet from there, so you have two chains here, so you will make one single
17:32
crochet inside each of this chain, super good, and now 8 single crochet here from this other leg
17:43
just remember here, where you insert the loop of the needle, is one stitch that you need to work on
17:49
it, okay? because you just inserted the loop of the needle there, that is not one
17:53
stitch. So 8 single crochet here, of this other leg
