This crochet Pattern was created by Aniqua Wilkerson of My Kinda Thing. It is a detailed set of instructions on how to create the original design she calls the “Two Skein Ballerina”.

Because the design is created using only two colors (one for the skin tone and the other for everything else) it is a creative challenge to keep it simple but beautiful!

This intermediate pattern is for the crocheter that is familiar with working in the round.

This doll is around 18-20 inches tall from Puff/Bun to toe, depending on your tension and the yarn you use.
