I love Allison’s book Amigurume, Make Cute Crochet People!
This doll has the long female face and curvy body. I also tack the ears back on the dolls.
The hair is latched onto the circumference of the wig cap and then along the part. An earlier doll I did I put hair all over the wig cap and it was waaaay tooo much and top heavy.
To make the white dress I just winged it.
I put wire in the legs to make them poseable like the arms.
This is my fave mouth I have done. I started with a wedge shape of felt and glued it on the doll. I put a little glue on and then pin the felt to hold a little pressure. I used worsted weight yarn for the lips. The upper lip is one strand. The lower I stitched over and over until I got the fullness I wanted. I also then use pins to hold the lower lip in place and placed a little glue under with a toothpick. It allows just a little teeth to show through.
