Here comes the Twigster, in other words, a very Twiggy-inspired crochet amigurumi girl to sunny up your autumn days! She is the perfect companion if you are a fan of the 60s like me or if you fancy a bit of a quirky add-on to your vintage world.

This easy to follow eBook pattern contains crochet charts for each part of Twiggy doll’s body, and a lot of photographs to guide you through the trickier steps like hair embroidery or other details.

Size approx. 13 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 Yellow for hair, details and boots; Cream for skin; Blue & Green for dress; black or blue and pink for details or whatever you fancy!

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, belt buckle (or another button), felt (optional), threading needle, embroidery yarn

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.

Thank you and enjoy!
