​Crochet Hoodie for Doll

You’ll need:

Yarn with at least 50% Merino wool;

Crochet hook 1,5 mm;

Scissors.

Instructions

At first, take measurements of the doll – length of sleeve, back and front and width of armpit.

Start your work from the bottom part. Make chain due to the measurements.

Crochet to the armpit line. Then, divide your work into 3 parts – back and 2 halves of front. Crochet to the neck-hole line and form it by means of half-crochets, single crochets and half double crochets.

After you’ve finished the neck-hole, make shoulder seams and match with the pattern design. If everything is ok, turn to making sleeves. Fasten the arm-holes with double crochets, start making decreases from the center of sleeves from the 1^st st of the row. In the end, don’t forget to make cuffs due to the same scheme, as you use for sleeves, but start making decreases from the 1^st circle. The width of cuff is about 4-9 mm.

If you want to decorate your hoodie with collar, it’s enough to make it from 3 double crochets. Also, if you want, you can make hood. Make a chain in the 1^st row of collar of the same length as your hood will be.

Hood

Divide the chain to the 2 parts and start crochet each part separately to the center, after that, make decreases in the beginning of each row and make increases in the end.

After you’ve made the two parts of hood, connect them between each other with double crochets and sew the hood to the main part.
