Please note: This is no complete pattern but a variation of my eBook Rosa the Modgirl available here on ravelry.

A little time ago I presented my latest amigurumi doll pattern Rosa the Modgirl, a nice little girl loving pastels, Beat music and bass players.
Following the link to my blog Jasz the Schneider you’ll find an easy to follow tutorial explaining how you can give Rosa another character or better making her a cute little friend called Betty, herself in love with the sixties, bows and up-dos, by changing only a few things.

Overview

Size approx. 14 inches.

Yarn I love using 100% cotton for hook size 3mm for my amigurumi but you may use whatever yarn you have at hand.

Suggested Colors Blue for hair; Cream for skin; Sunny Yellow and China Blue for top and skirt; Brown for boots.

Hook I always use the hook size given on my yarn. If you are a loose crocheter better use a hook size smaller than recommended. Amigurumi love tight stitches!

Misc Buttons, lace, felt, threading needle, belt buckle

Stuffing I use both pellets and stuffing cotton for my amigurumi. Pellets are great for rounded areas like hands and feet. Me personally, I love light basic stuffing, just enough to hold the intended form but still soft to the touch.

Skills, Stitches, Abbreviations You should be familiar with basic embroidery stitching such as back stitch (for hair embroidery and details) and the picot knot (eyes); chain (ch), single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc), increasing (m2) and decreasing (dec) as well as the magic (adjustable) ring plus special stitches (photo tutorial). The pattern is worked in rounds, marking the first stitch.

Terminology This pattern is written in American crochet terminology.

Have fun! :)
