Nara is a ragdoll style crochet pattern for intermediate crocheters written using US (American) terms. You will work the pieces in rows before crocheting together and stuffing.

The pattern includes detailed instructions in an easy to follow layout but a knowledge of basic crochet stitches and techniques used to make ragdolls is essential.

Your tension, yarn thickness and hook size used will affect the size of your finished items. My Nara is approximately 25cm (10 inches) long and 28cm (11 inches) wide.

Please contact me immediately if you have purchased this pattern thinking it is an actual toy as I do not process refunds after the PDF file has been downloaded.

You will need:

• 2.75mm hook/C-2 (US)
• 8ply yarns/DK or Light Worsted > 50g yarn in PURPLE and NUDE, less than 50g in WHITE and a small amount of BLACK and PINK
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle
• Polyester toy stuffing
• Stitch marker (optional)

Notes:

• A yarn with no stretch is best for making toys, I use cotton or cotton blend.
