Yoshi Amigurumi Doll Pattern and Free Video Tutorial

Amigurumi Yoshi doll inspired by the Mario games. I tried to make this doll as accurate to the way the character looks in the games as possible, and I think I did a pretty good job. You can find the pattern on Ravelry here: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/yoshi-amigurumi-7

Part 1 of the free video tutorial is at the bottom of this page. Next parts of the video coming soon!

I used Spring Green and White from Red Heart Super Saver for the classic Yoshi color, but of course you can be really creative with this pattern and make yours any color you like. I also made one in Bubblegum pink, and I’m working on one in Royal Blue. I used a size E hook and aran weight yarn, you might be able to use a smaller hook and a thinner yarn, like a light worsted weight and a size B hook, to make an even smaller, cuter doll.

I also used craft wire to make my doll pose-able. You can see from the pictures that this doll holds it’s poses very well. If you’re planning on making this doll for a baby or small child, don’t use any wire in your doll.

Crochet Long Stem Rose Bouquet Video Tutorial and Pattern

The new tutorial is finally here! In which I show you how to crochet a rose with a long stem, just in time for Valentine's Day! In Part 1, I show you how to complete the petals. And in Part 2 I show you how to make the leaves and stem. If you want to purchase the written pattern, you can find it in my Ravelry store here. Buy it now! Find the free video tutorial at the bottom of the page.

You can use pretty much any yarn for this project, but bear in mind that the rose will be bigger using a thicker yarn, and smaller using a thinner yarn. I used “Cherry Red” and “Hunter Green from Red Heart Super Saver for the flower I made in the video tutorial, but you can use any color yarn you choose.

 I also used a size E hook but again, using a larger hook will result in a larger, lacier flower, while a smaller hook will create a smaller flower.

I made my roses about 24 inches long (4 inch long petals, 20 inch long stem), but if you prefer a shorter bouquet you can make the stems shorter.

Basic Crochet Doll Shirt Pattern/Tutorial

Basic loose-fitting doll shirt with optional bust and sleeves. Made to fit my basic amigurumi doll pattern, or my realistic body amigurumi doll pattern, but easy to customize to any size doll.

Worked either in rows or in the round. If making for a doll with a large head, you might want to work in rows and sew the shirt onto the doll afterward, to make it easier to get the shirt on the doll.

For best results, use light weight yarn. This is so that less bulk is added to the doll.

I used scrap yarn for my project, since the doll I was making the shirt for was so small. If you’re making your shirt for a much larger doll, you may need more yarn.

How to Crochet Slipper Boots Pattern/Video Tutorial

Sizing is fully customize-able, but specific sizing info is given for US standard women's sizes. Make these boots as tall or as short as you like.

You can customize the size of these boots pretty easily, either by using a store-bought slipper as the base (I've also seen people use flip-flops as the bottoms of their slippers), or you can make your own slipper bottoms in one of three provided sizes: narrow, regular, and wide.
I used 2 skeins of Loops and Threads Charisma for my slipper boots, but if you made them shorter you might only need 1 skein. You'll also need some worsted or aran weight yarn if you're using a store-bought slipper, to sew a foundation row around the slipper bottom and to create loops for your bulky weight yarn. If you're doing that, you'll also need something sharp, like a sharp yarn needle, to poke holes around the base of your slipper.

Sc 2 using black, leave 2^nd st open and CC to red. Sc 2 using red, leave 2^nd red st open and CC to black. Close mag circ. (8 sts total)

2. Continue using black. Inc every st of row (sc 2 times into each st). 

Into each red st of prev row, sc only into back lps. Sl st to 1^st st of row. Cut off yarn (16 sts total)

3. If desired, cut off long tail of red yarn and outline red sts to create more defined hourglass shape. Sew in remaining ends. Base of spider finished. 

4. Continue using black. Note: Every st in this row worked into same st. 

To create body cluster: Into top middle st of base (top middle side of hourglass shape—doesn't matter which side is top or bottom), pull up a lp and ch 2 (counts as 1^st st). Into the same st, *yo, pull up a lp; pull a lp through 2 lps on hook** so that 2 lps remain on hook (as though working a dc st, but not finishing the st).

Into same st, repeat from * to ** 2 times until 4 lps remain on hook. 

Pull a lp through all four lps on hook.

5. To create mandibles: Ch 4. Sl st to 3^rd ch from hook. Sl st into next ch. Ch 4 more. Sl st to 3^rd ch from hook. Sl st to next ch.

ch 12, sl st into 2^nd ch from hook and into remaining chs.** Sl st into next st around base.

Continue around base. Sl st 7 into sts around base before creating spinnerets. (In the pic it says mandibles, it's supposed to say spinnerets) 

7. To create spinnerets: (Note: same as creating mandibles) Ch 4. Sl st to 3^rd ch from hook. Sl st to next ch. Ch 4 more. Sl st to 3^rd ch from hook. Sl st to next ch. Sl st to same st around base where spinnerets begin. 

Continue around base. Sl st 7. Repeat process from * to ** mirrored to create final 4 legs. Sl st to same st where mandibles begin. Cut off yarn. Sew in end.
