Pin Up Outfit Doll Pattern www.duendedeloshilos.es

In this pattern you’ll find everything you need to know to dress your Basic Doll with a Pin Up style. This outfit is intended to be used on our Basic Doll amigurumi so make sure you crochet the clothes with the same crochet hook you used for it, that way everything will look perfect!

I recommend crocheting one piece of clothes at a time. You can start crocheting the easiest one, the bandana and then continue with the hair, the top and finally the shoes and the bib overalls which are the hardest parts of our Outfit. You’ll have to make the same technique to split the legs you learned from our

Basic Doll pattern. Let’s do this!

All this pieces have been designed so you can dress and undress your doll. In other designs some pieces will be attached to the body or sewed onto it, but right now you don’t need to worry about that! You can crochet all your pieces and dress your doll with them. Perhaps you’ll find a little difficult to place the top, you can leave 1cm on the upper part of the body and then use a snap fastener so it’s easier to put and remove. However all pieces are designed so you can play dressing and undressing your Doll!So, what do you say, shall we start with the fun?

Hello little pixie!Here is the pattern that will teach you how to do your own Pin Up Outfit for your Basic Doll. This is a graphic pattern, so you only need to follow the steps using the symbols given in the first page.

This is our Basic Doll

When you find an explanation after one round between brackets saying this sentence the only thing you have to do is to repeat that very same number of rounds. For example: If you see “36X (repeat 3)” you need to crochet 3 rounds of 36 crochet stitches.You can also find this after a group of repeated stitches. For example: If you see a round with “1X 1V (repeat 3)” you need to crochet 1 crochet stitch and 1 increase three times.

What do you mean by “repeat X”?

Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.) www.duendedeloshilos.es

Frequently askedquestionsF.A.Q.

With some pieces after you start crocheting in circles the pattern will indicate to crochet a chain and turn your piece to crochet a flat piece, turning your piece and crocheting from left to right and vice versa. This will create some straight parts that we’ll keep crocheting in circle. This is a way of making a relief or making abrupt changes in your pieces.

Don’t worry! You can always write to this e-mail [email protected]

and I’ll solve your problems as fast as I can!

Crochet a flat piece after starting with a magic ring?

At the beginning of each round you’ll find a little turquoise ball like this:

It’s for making it easier to follow your pattern (in case you’ve printed it) and it also indicates a new round (or group of identical rounds that need to be repeated). You can use it as a checkpoint if you’re going to stop crocheting. You can make a little sign on each round you’ve already crocheted. This way you’ll know what was the last round you did crochet!

What are this turquoise balls for?

Worry not! You can find all crochet stitches step by step in Spanish in our Youtube Chanel. You can visit this link to learn with me! You’ll find them on the Video List called “Curso Amigurumi”.

https://www.youtube.com/c/duendedeloshilosIf it is a very complicated stitch or technique, you’ll find a page with instructions along with the pattern.

I don’t know this stitch!

They indicate the number of stitches you should have at the end of the round.

If the round is not completed, it’s the end of the piece or it’s a partial number (you haven’t crocheted the whole round) It’s possible that we didn’t put them. So don’t worry!

What are those turquoise numbers?

You may find some underlined stitches like these in some patterns:

The underlined stitches indicate after them a little explanation (in this case, together) which you’ll only need to do for those specific stitches. Crochet them is pretty simple! In this case you’ll crochet a double crochet and after that on the very same stitch two double crochet. This will create a relief and special shapes.

In this case the explanation between brackets is to repeat and you’ll only need to do it on those underlined stitches. For example: We crochet 6 crochet stitches and now we’ll have to repeat 1 decrease and 5 crochet stitches four times, once you’ve finished those repetitions you’ll need to crochet the next 6 crochet stitches.

Underlined stitches

I have more doubts!

Sewing your amigurumi’s pieces depends on how you like them. You can use the pictures to guide you and do it like I did or you can sew them wherever you fancy! You can use pins to help you attach the piece before sewing it and to see where you like it most.To sew the pieces it’s better to leave a long thread of yarn. Use that thread to sew pieces instead of using another thread that wouldn’t match the color, that way you wouldn’t even notice it!

How can i sew all pieces?

Our patterns are a mix between graphic and written patterns so it can be easily adapted to other languages and can be read even if they’re not in your maternal language. The only thing you need to know to read them are the symbols used for each stitch (they’re universal and can be found on the second page).Then you’ll have to pay attention to the number before the symbol (for example: 4) and the type of stitch (for example: Single Crochet , Increase ), and if they’re repetitions (number of times you’ll have to repeat crocheting certain rounds or specific stitches)On the right of these instructions you’ll find numbers in other color that will tell you how many stitches you’ll have at the end of each round. Piece of cake!

Graphic patterns are very common especially in Japanese patterns. It shows lots of circles (or flat pieces made with chains). And you have to read them in spiral following the number of stitches indicated in each circle. The graphics used for this patterns are universal so this will make easier to read patterns even if they’re not in your maternal language.

Written patterns indicate what you need to crochet using only words, without symbols. At the end of each round using brackets you’ll find the number of stitches you should have at the end of each round (like the explanation table used in Japanese patterns). This can be an inconvenience if you find this pattern in other language because you won’t be able to understand the meaning of all words.

In this PDF I’ll teach you step by step the most complicated parts of our pin up outfit, so you can make it with no problem! You’ll find tutorials with all you need to know to crochet all your pieces in a simple way.

Once you have finished a piece leave a longthread of yarn. Use that thread to sew piecesinstead of using another that wouldn’t matchthe color, that way it would look better!

- Aging Jeans- Crocheting in the opposite direction- Making the bib overall- Broken jeans effect- Assembling the hair- Joining pieces

Hello little pixie!In this file you’ll find tutorials to help you crochet our Pin Up Outfit for our Basic Doll.Follow the tips given here so crocheting and assembling the outfit pieces are piece of cake!

We’ll crochet a round using only the back loops, this will make easier to bend the jeans.

Now we have a little problem. If we bend the jeans we’ll see the back of the piece!

As you can see here when we keep crocheting we can see the our white stitches look like the back of the piece and the blue ones are right, but once we bend the white part it will look perfect!

My little advice is that you try stretching a little the bottom where we crocheted our chain before you bend that part because sometimes it’s a little tight

Once you’re done crocheting the whole piece you can bend the white part and you’ll see how every stitch looks perfect!

And that’s how it’s done! Our stitches look exactly the same! Perfect!

Crocheting in the opposite directionCrocheting in the opposite direction

This will make that all our stitches can be seen the right way, so none of our piece’s parts will look like the back.

To do this, after the first round you’ll need to crochet a chain and turn the piece so you can start crocheting in the opposite direction.

What we want to accomplish is that we can see the right side of the piece from the trousers and the bended part as well.

Technique www.duendedeloshilos.es

First thing you need to do is place the piece on their right places. You can start by placing the front side. Make sure the edges are together.

To sew them together, grab a thread from the front side and another one from the trousers’ edge. Now keep sewing them together as if you were drawing lines between them.

Pull your thread tight so the thread is well hidden. This will make it look as if it was originally a single piece.

To make sure the piece doesn’t move while you do this use pins to secure the piece. I recommend sewing the pieces once you’ve put them on your doll, it will make it easier!

Once you’ve finished sewing the two pieces hide the thread and cut it. Or you can use it to sew the rest of the pieces.

Now that you’ve finished sewing these two piece it’s time to continue with the rest. Let’s go!

Technique www.duendedeloshilos.es

As I always recommend, leave a long thread once you finish a piece so you can sew it onto the next one with it, that way it will look perfect!

I’ve used 5mm doll buttons. You can sew them to the piece or use a little glue. If you don’t have plastic buttons you can try embroidering them with a needle once you’ve sew the suspenders.

Now you only need to make the final touches to your piece! Making the jeans look as if they’re broken! That will be our next tutorial!

Don’t forget to use pins to assemble the pieces before sewing them, that way you’ll make sure they’re placed just as you like them.

These trouser have 5 piece you’ll need to sew to each other if you prefer the bib overall without pockets you don’t need to crochet them. Your choice!

Sew the pockets hollowing out a little the center so our doll can store her favorite treasures there!

Making the bib overallTechnique www.duendedeloshilos.es

We’ll make our jeans look even more worn away! To do this we’ll add broken parts, it’s pretty easy!

It’s not indicated in the pattern because we want you to choose wherever you think looks better. To do a hole just crochet as many chains as you want the size, we’ve crocheted 5 chains.

You need to crochet single stitches in the chains we made before so you can crochet the rest of your piece normally.

Now skip the same number of stitches as your chain’s length (in our case, we skip 5 stitches), that will create a hole of that size. Keep crocheting normally until you reach that part again.

Now use a sewing needle and thread to sew the hole a little to imitate the threads you have on your trousers’ holes, this will add more realism to it!

If you don’t want to create the holes you can always do just the previous step! Both methods will look good!

Aging Jeans

Technique www.duendedeloshilos.es

Paint a little the edges of the areas you want to age. You can think of the places where your trousers start wearing away sooner and paint them on your amigurumi’s as well!

Put a little paint in your brush and paint on a piece of paper first so there’s not too much paint on it, we need our brush to be a little dry so it won’t leave a lot of paint on our trousers, just a little will do.

Let’s age a little our jeans! We’ll make our jeans and bib overalls look as if they’ve been worn away by using them over and over again! We just need some acrylic paint or fabric paint and a little brush.

Do it several times in the places you left holes (if you put any) to make it look even older.

You can age also the backside that gets a little white every time you seat.

Repeat this process adding a little paint in all the places you want to age your jeans and that’s all! You have a really nice effect on your bib overall.

First of all, we’ll crochet the different pieces that will make our hair: Hair, Bun and Bangs. The bun is made making front post double crochets that will create a little texture.

The decreases create a different shape, so you need to place the bun like this.

The idea is to pull the thread all over the round so we can gather the material.

It can be easier doing it on little areas instead than the whole piece. So you can pull the thread on a section and then pull to gather the material, after that continue with the next section.

Once you’ve completed the whole round pull tightly so the material is closed like a circle.

It’s normal if the piece is not completely closed, that can be due to the material’s stiffness, and you can repeat the process again if you want.

Assembling the hairAssembling the hair

Now take the thread you left after finishing the piece and pull it through the stitches like this.

When you have finished the piece it should look like this, slightly curved

The hair piece is made crocheting on the back loops to create a different texture.

Assembling the hairAssembling the hair

Technique www.duendedeloshilos.es

You can repeat this process as many times as you need to close the hole. Our bangs will go there anyway.

Once you close it, it should look like this. We have our wig!

This is a picture of how the bun looks like from behind.

The bun and the bangs finish the piece. You can gather a little the bangs before sewing them on the front part (it will cover the V shape from our previous piece).

Now you can put the end of the bang a little to the back to create a little quiff.

Once you place the bandana in the right place the hairstyle will look perfect! Just gorgeous!

This is a side picture of how it looks like. I’ve placed mine on top of the head so you can see it clearly when you look at the front side of the doll.

Once you’ve placed your hair, it’s time to place the bun. You can place it where you like most, but remember that the shortest part needs to be placed looking at the front.

You can gather the bottom part a little to make it look as if her hair was unsweep with the bun.

The legs are crocheted separately but we join them to crochet them like a single piece.

Crochet two legs and once you’ve reached the part where our pattern explains how to join them follow the steps given. First crochet the chains to create a little distance between them.

Now we keep crocheting on the other leg as we’d normally do.

Once you reach the chains we’ll crochet on the other side of the chains. With this we complete our bridge and now we have a single round.

As you can see our legs have been connected to one another without sewing them. Now we have a single round that we’ll crochet normally!

You only need to follow the pattern to continue your amigurumi.

Joining piecesJoining pieces

Once you reach the chains we’ll crochet on them (on one of their side) to create a little bridge between our two legs.

The idea is to crochet on this piece’s stitches and also on the chains we did earlier to create a single piece.

Join the leg you’ve crocheted the chain to the other using a slip stitch. And we continue making single crochets until we reach the chains.

In this case the explanation between brackets is to repeat and you’ll only need to do it on those underlined stitches. For example: We crochet 6 crochet stitches and now we’ll have to repeat 1 decrease and 5 crochet stitches four times, once you’ve finished those repetitions you’ll need to crochet the next 6 crochet stitches.

Underlined stitches

I have more doubts!

Sewing your amigurumi’s pieces depends on how you like them. You can use the pictures to guide you and do it like I did or you can sew them wherever you fancy! You can use pins to help you attach the piece before sewing it and to see where you like it most.To sew the pieces it’s better to leave a long thread of yarn. Use that thread to sew pieces instead of using another thread that wouldn’t match the color, that way you wouldn’t even notice it!

How can i sew all pieces?

Our patterns are a mix between graphic and written patterns so it can be easily adapted to other languages and can be read even if they’re not in your maternal language. The only thing you need to know to read them are the symbols used for each stitch (they’re universal and can be found on the second page).Then you’ll have to pay attention to the number before the symbol (for example: 4) and the type of stitch (for example: Single Crochet , Increase ), and if they’re repetitions (number of times you’ll have to repeat crocheting certain rounds or specific stitches)On the right of these instructions you’ll find numbers in other color that will tell you how many stitches you’ll have at the end of each round. Piece of cake!

Graphic patterns are very common especially in Japanese patterns. It shows lots of circles (or flat pieces made with chains). And you have to read them in spiral following the number of stitches indicated in each circle. The graphics used for this patterns are universal so this will make easier to read patterns even if they’re not in your maternal language.

Written patterns indicate what you need to crochet using only words, without symbols. At the end of each round using brackets you’ll find the number of stitches you should have at the end of each round (like the explanation table used in Japanese patterns). This can be an inconvenience if you find this pattern in other language because you won’t be able to understand the meaning of all words.
