Bella girl free amigurumi pattern

Sharing is caring!

Meet – Bella (the Ballerina girl).
She is one of my favourite amigrumi girl patterns and you guys can have this pattern for free. When I was crocheting her I imagined a cute little girl in pre school who do ballet dancing in a group with their teacher.  You guys can crocheting her in different colour hair and add your own style to create different character even make them a set of friends. This pattern is very easy to make and only needs single crochet.
The thing is that, I love to give free crochet patterns to see you guys make and crochet and share your creative idea from my pattern is my love and passion. Just can’t wait to see your creative twist.

1. Acrylic yarn, for this pattern, I normally used 8 ply

3. Polyester fiberfill for stuffing

4. Sewing yarn needle and embroidery

5. Ribbon or button

Note

For the size of the crochet hook really does not matter. The doll design will work just fine with different sizes crochet of hooks, only the end size of the creation will different slightly.

In this pattern, you will be working in the round continuously, you may use a contrasting colour short piece of yarn to mark the beginning of each round. When you end a round, do not join at the end of each round; you will begin the second round in the next stitch.

At the end of each round, I have given the number of stitches you should have .If you are off by 1or 2 stitches, do not worry about it.

Hair

When making hair for the doll, my technique I normally used a small book or you can use a piece of card board to hold yarn together it depend on how long of doll hair you want. For me my hair doll approximately 4 inch each side.

Then cut it one side.

Fold yarn in half and insert crochet hook under the head skin and pull through make the loop and put the end pieces through the loop and pull it tighten. Repeat to form a horizontal line around the head.

Then wrap the yarn around your finger and use another piece of yarn to tight up. And attached this piece in front of the face of the doll.

Attached hair by sewing.
