Amigurumi Molly doll

I have been seeing this Molly doll often enough to finally make one. I always seem to change it to make it my own. So I changed the eyes the dress and the beanie. I like the way it turned up. I also didn't make any wires so it is child safe. I also didn't make shoe laces. I love her face it turned out pretty good. You can give it a try ladies and put your mark like I did to make it your own. It is a free pattern from pinterest.

Amigurumi doll

I called this one a clown doll it is a pattern that I bought a couple of years ago. I wish it was larger and I had made another one like this one before. The pattern is easy to follow is pretty good to follow she has photo instructions. I think she is too short like me lol. I could have added more straight rows in the middles somewhere. If you look on pinterest you can find this doll and the lady who designed it,cause I can't remember exactly her name. I used different colour purples to use up some of my yarns. No wires so it will be safe for kids if you sew this doll properly.

Amigurumi doll

This time I followed a lady on you tube to make this doll. She called it bag charm doll or something within those words. I think she is Suwanna craft's room. She is a cute doll she made it out of cotton so her doll would be smaller then mine. I made mine out of acrylic yarn. Her hair is the first time I did it this way but no harm in trying new technics. I sometimes rather follow the pattern it is quicker then you tube. I decreased one row in her shoe I like it that way and a row of increase in her hat I thought it was coming out too big and it would have been. I also made different trim on the skirt then hers. In this doll I learnt how to attach her hair. I didn't attach the hat to the head.  Anyway good luck with yours if you have a go

Amigurumi sock monkey

I would like to open an etsy store one day. I have decided to make some toys so I will see if I can see them. I  want to make some toys that doesn't take me many hours to finish, other wise it is not worth the hassle. I still find satisfaction with every toy I make and it is really hard for me to part from them but I have many now. It would be great to earn some money though through doing what I love. What I have done today is a sock monkey I altered it a little as always seems to be my trait. I love the mint colour of wool and with beige works well I think. I made longer legs and stuck them on differently too. I put safety eyes and also stuck glue at the back of them for security.  Here is my finished product.

My second try of making a doll

I almost succeeded in writing the pattern for this doll. I need to write the head and the hat. I tried making bigger head but I think it doesn't look that cute. So I will make a smaller head and hat. The dress is also a little wider I think it looks nicer. So I still need a little work on this doll but at least I have a lot done for the pattern. I used less lines because the doll is small and I think maybe it looks better. The hair is also different. I used just a strand of wool for the first doll I untwisted one peace of wool into four peaces. the last one I left the wool as it was. I wanted to experiment and see which one will be cuter. I think the first one has better head, hat and hair. Here is the photo of them.

My very own amigurumi doll

I tried to make an amigurumi toy so I can write my first pattern. Mind you the draft I had for my toy wasn't at all the end of this doll. I have to try and make a pattern for this doll now. I actually didn't like her at first and also after I made her dress. I liked her with the hat. She looks pretty with that hat. The colours are green and red. It looks like there is white on the photo. I also did her hair thin I don't like it on her this thin. The legs and body are one piece. Twenty three centimeters  long. If I manage to make the pattern I will be very happy.

My doll

I've been wanting to make a doll with my own pattern but I always loose the way. I start well and if I unpick that's it. I wanted to make it close to real as possible. I tried to make knees,elbows and chest. I still have to improve around the shoulders. It is not finished yet but I will let you see where I am up to. I still have to do more work to it. I have been working on it every night. I am still thinking how I want her mouth to look like. If I will attach the lips or embroider her lips. I need to do something about her shoes as well add purple and blue to it. I will glue some eye lashes to this doll too. She looks kind of angry with those eyes. I tried to sculpt her face I think I made her look worse.I always challenge myself in trying new stuff . It is not always successful. My dream is to make a pattern of my very own. Maybe I should try simpler toy. The problem with me is I am not creative at all but if I see something I can copy it. I still wish to come up with my cute little toy. I put eye lashes on and embroidered her lips. They came better then I expected. I should get a better needle for that kind of job. I also added frills to her socks and made shoes to match her dress. I know, I know head is bigger in proportion to her body but I wasn't going to make another head.

Lala-Oopsie doll

I started this few months ago and I wanted to finish what I started, this is also one of them. I stopped making it after I joined her up. I started different colour of hair and I wasn't sure of it so that is why I stopped. I didn't think it was going to look good so I always have a reason why I stop finishing them. I started on a dress pattern from Amigurumi BB and I changed it a little. I think red looks good for a dress with black trimming. I wanted to making striking colour for hair so I went for strong yellow. I would have finished it differently if I kept going on it few months back even though I looked at so many dolls for inspirations. I kind of made her hair like a blonde doll with a red ribbon but her dress is completely different than that doll. For the boots I also looked at another doll just to try it out. If you guys would like this doll it is from Amigurumi BB which I thank her so much for the patterns.

Red haired doll

The head of this doll is one of the spheres I had made, I can't wait to use them all. I had made two similar to this one before. I used the body from Amigurumi Bb dolls. She is an awesome lady. She shares many of her free patterns and she allows you to add or change to them as we please. I like her dress and shoes. I still need more practice about this type of hair. I like Amigurumi BB dolls better the head are much nicer. I have another idea of making hair. See the way I find things out is searching for the thing I want and I find something better. I know another method which takes a lot of time so I don't bother with it.

My sleeping doll

My sleeping doll again without a pattern. So far I keep trying and see what I can come up with that is cute. I got inspired for this doll from the waldorf sleeping baby. I felted the eyes and lips. It is easier to do then embroider them. As you can see it is pretty basic for those who have done dolls before. I like making dolls and before I finish one thing I'm already thinking of what I'm going to do next. You will find out from the next photo I guess if you keep checking.

Little doll

I made this lovely doll from Amigurumi BB. It wasn't hard to make easy to follow pattern. I did change the dress it was way too short for my doll. I continued increasing stitches according to her pattern and added another frill. I also wanted body to her hair so I added bangs Technic to about four rows from the bottom of the head. It is strange for me to leave her without a mouth and a nose. My girls said leave her to the child's imagination. So here is a picture of her.

large doll

I made this from Bbs amigurumi easy to follow pattern. It is a free pattern. I want to try more of her patterns.
It was fairly easy to do I added nose, ears and eyebrows. I used two yarns because I wanted it to be big. There is nothing to sew but I did. I sewed the hands. I hope one of my girls will have a girl to give it to her. I bought girl clothes for the doll which she will want if she has a girl. lol
