Making Crochet Harlem Doll Amigurumi:

Materials Needed:

• Crochet hook
• Yarn (in various colors depending on your design)
• Fiberfill stuffing
• Safety eyes
• Stitch marker
• Yarn needle
• Scissors

Step by step process

1. Create a Magic Circle: Start with a magic circle with 6 stitches. These will make the doll's head.
2. Stitch Increases: Increase each stitch in the second round, resulting in 12 stitches. Continue increasing stitches in each round until the doll's head is as big as desired.
3. Shape the Doll's Head: Begin reducing stitches to shape the doll's head. There should be even decreases around the circle.
4. Craft the Doll’s Body: Repeat the same steps as you did for the head, altering the increases and decreases according to your specific doll pattern. Usually, the body is longer and narrower than the head.
5. Create the Arms, Legs, and any Additional Parts: Following your amigurumi pattern, crochet the arms and legs. You may also need to crochet extra parts like ears, a tail, hair, or clothes.
6. Assemble the Doll: Using a yarn needle, stitch together all the crocheted parts. Ensure the location and positioning match your pattern's instructions.
7. Add the Eyes and any Embroidery: Attach safety eyes or embroider eyes with contrasting yarn. You can also embroider other details like a mouth, nose, or cheeks.
8. Stuff the Doll: Before fully closing your stitched doll, remember to fill each part with the fiberfill stuffing.
9. Finishing Touches: Lastly, stitch the doll closed and weave the ends of the yarn to finish.
