Introducing my crochet ballerina - an interactive crochet pattern for a low sew amigurumi doll.

The finished toy makes a perfect gift for children or dance lovers. I have provided detailed instructions and photos, making the pattern easy to follow for beginner to intermediate crocheters. You can use most yarn types - lightweight cotton creates a smaller decoration, while chunky plush yarn results in a larger, cuddly doll.

Written in English using US crochet terms, with step-by-step instructions and lots of photos included. Download includes a printer friendly version, as well as a colourful interactive PDF pattern.

PATTERN DETAILS
• Low-Sew Construction: No-sew body base starts at the bottom of the feet and works up to the top of the head as a single piece, crocheting in the arms.
• Assembly: Sewing is only required for the hair.
• Finished Size: Approx. 20cm tall with DK yarn and a 2.5mm hook, or 35cm tall with chunky yarn and a 4mm hook.
• Mix and Match: Designed on our signature base! Mix and match with my other Chunky patterns. For example, make yourself a hippo ballerina by using Dottie the Chunky Hippo to modify this pattern.
