My Crochet Doll Pdf Free Download
I bet you remember some of the stuffed animals and dolls you played with as a child. The bond between a child and their toy is just so special! Of course, every child's favorite toy is different depending on their personalities. That's part of the reason I love all these adorable and free crochet doll patterns. Each doll pattern brings a little something special to the table!
You might feel a bit like a mad scientist when you crochet a doll for the first time. Every little detail is up to you! You get to choose the hair color, the outfit, and the accessories. It's fun to make a doll that looks like the child you want to give it to. It's also fun to include the child in the design process and get their opinion on the matter!
Having a few free crochet doll patterns on hand is a great way to get started with making a doll. That way you can weigh your options and decide which doll you think would be best. We have free crochet doll patterns for girl dolls and boy dolls; small dolls and big dolls; and dolls with professions like ninja, superheroes, and soldiers.
Each of these free crochet doll patterns also comes with instructions for making the doll clothing. Some patterns have the clothes worked as part of the body, while other free crochet doll patterns have you make the clothes separately. We have a lot of clothing varieties for you today with dresses, pants, skirts, shorts, boots, shoes, and coats.
My favorite part about these free crochet doll patterns are all the fun accessories. You'll find that your crochet characters really come to life with a quick and simple addition of an umbrella, a bow, an apron, a backpack, or whatever it might be. There are a lot of options to make each doll unique. I'm so excited for you to see all the amazing free crochet doll patterns we have for you today. So prepare to get inspired and start scrolling!

Tips for Crocheting Dolls
The first tip for crocheting amazing dolls is to use a much smaller size hook than you are used to for the size yarn. For example, I made my Morgan doll (seen above) with a DK yarn that calls for a size G hook, but I sized down to a D hook to get the stitches nice and tight. You don't want any stuffing showing through!
The next tip is to learn to use and love the magic circle technique. This lets you start a round without having a noticeable hole like you would if you used a slip knot and chains. It took me a while to get the hang of this one, but now I use and love it and I have had a lot of people comment that my tutorial has helped them learn how to get the hang of it, too!
Finally, use stitch markers to keep track of where you are because you will work most of these patterns in continuous rounds. It gets really hard to tell where you are when all the stitches look the same! Plus it can be hard to count the rounds when you don't know where the round ends, so do yourself a favor and somehow mark the first stitch of the round.
What are the Best Yarns for Crochet Dolls?
A lot of people love acrylic yarns such as Vanna's Choice for dolls, and it is a great worsted weight yarn to use. The most important thing is getting the color for the skin tone you like, as many yarn lines don't have a great array of skin tones.
I used Lion Brand Coboo for my Morgan doll and have purchased two different skin tones in the same yarn line for some upcoming dolls. There are three that I like for skin tones: Tan, Beige and Taupe.
Once you get the body of the doll down the hair, clothes and accessories can be made from anything you like – even fabric for clothes or non-yarn hair! The choices are endless.

21. Primrose Crochet Doll
To make a really small and delicate crochet doll you need to use very thin yarn – or crochet thread.
