I want to say a few words about the
doll…
This is a girl in “Country” style. Doll is
28 cm / 11 inches height, but the
tension and yarn may differ, so the
size of the toy may vary too.

Split pin connectors:
What are split pin connectors? They are
traditionally used in a crocheted doll. Such
connectors give a mobility to hands and
legs. They turn freely meanwhile the
connectors are very reliable. We need a T-
shaped split pins, disks, pliers and details of
the toy.
Take a split pin and push it through the first
detail of the toy.
Then insert a split pin into the second
detail of the toy, put the disk on top and
with the help of the pliers twist the ends of
the split pins clockwise. Trust me, it is very
easy!

THE FRONT AND BACK POST STITCH
Front post stitch
1. In order to crochet a back post double crochet, yarn over and insert the hook
from the back in front of the double crochet you are working on (the dc is
the post).
2. Now, push the hook around the dc (the post) back to the back (which is why
it is called a back post).
3. Now yarn over as you normally would for a double crochet.
9
4. And finish up the stitch like a normal double crochet. You now created one
back post double crochet stitch where both the first row dc and the 2nd row
dc are push towards the back.

EARS х 2
6 sc into MR
Work two ears and attach to the
head.
Attach the ears on the head between the 13th and the 15th rounds. The bottom
part of the ear secure in the 13th round and the upper part of the ear secure in the
15th round, see photo below:
21
Secure in a slip stitch. You also can sew the
ears to the head with the sewing needle.
23
Insert the needle with black floss
on the back of the head, pull out at
the edge of the eye and embroider
in a Running Stitch. Work two lines
at once.
Note: Do not insert the needle very
deep.
STEP 2. Embroider a pupil of the
eye. Do not be afraid of
irregularities, you will smooth and
form the circles later. See photo
on the right:
STEP 3. Embroider the outer line
of the eye with blue color.
STEP 4. Embroider the center of
the eye. Insert the needle near the
outer border and come back near
the pupil. Repeat and work in a
round as follow.
We embroider two eyes symmetrically. See the photo:
Note: we do not cut threads of other colors, we still need them for correction. (See
photo)
STEP 5. Start embroidering the borders of the white with white floss. Now make
glares on the pupils to revive the view with white floss.
24
Note: To make the white of the
eye more visible, I use special
white corrector! I put it around
the eye and on the glares. See the
photo below:
25
time! Pull floss to the top of the
head, secure and cut off. Move
the floss down with your finger to
get an arc (smile). See the photo
on the right:
HAIR
Use wool Mouline floss of brown
color. We need 20 pcs and crochet
hook №1.75
See photo of the floss on the right:
This floss is 1-ply, so it is very thin.
We work with 4-6 flosses together.
Take the first piece of floss and cut
out in the middle of the top, see
photo below:
26
Insert the hook into the middle stitch. Grab the folded thread by the middle and
pull it out.
Pull the ends of the thread through the formed loop and tight firmly.
Work in this way in each stitch, moving in a round. Then decide how your hair will
go on the sides. I usually just smoothly come down on each row. See photo:
Continue working in the same way.
27
Please note, that each doll will have the completely different look and face. I am
sure, that each doll will be beautiful!!!
