Little Baker Girl

HAPPY FRIDAY, WORLD!

I am delighted to share my little baker doll! I based my doll off of the Baker Lily  pattern from Yarnspirations. However, I didn’t use their pattern for hair as I didn’t like the look of it. Instead,  made my own cowl and wove the strands of yarn into the cowl (think of weaving hair extensions). I also made the pig tails look “curly”. 🙂  [The pattern is FREE, so definitely go check it out. It’s great practice for anyone interested in amigurumi. It is also a good chance to see if you really like crocheting this kind of thing!]

It took me about 3 weeks to complete. My fingers were pretty sore from rows upon rows upon rows of tiny single crochets. My absolute favorite part was the hair and the dress.

Hope everyone enjoys! I also added a little apron, which isn’t in the photo. I purposely left the “face” blank; the doll is for my grandmother, and the plan is to have her sew buttons and make the little mouth so it can be something we both worked on. 🙂 That being said, I hope it gets to her soon!!!
