This crochet pattern is for an adorable Harold (and his purple crayon) doll from the children’s classic book of the same name.

An original pattern by Fat Lady Crochet. Please note this is a crochet pattern, not the finished physical item.

This easy (but not beginner) crochet pattern is written in US terms and is designed for crocheters with a solid understanding of simple crochet, and who don’t mind a little bit of sewing. Lots of photos are included to help you along the way.

You will need:
• 75 grams each size 4 worsted weight yarn in Blue, Skin Tone
• 10 grams size 4 worsted weight yarn in White, Purple, Black
• Crochet hook size G 4.00 mm or size needed to obtain gauge
• Tapestry needle
• Fiber Fill
• Stitch marker

Notes
• Harold’s legs, body and head are worked in one piece.
• Harold’s arms, eyes and crayon are worked separately and sewn on.
• Harold is worked in continuous rounds from the bottom up.
• Harold stands roughly 8 inches tall.
