Dress Vine: 3.5 hook with green

To achieve the green spiral throughout the dress, I pulled up green yarn from inside the dress to the outside of the dress, starting at the bottom of where the purple bumps begin. I then did single chains from inside to outside the dress, between each purple bump round until reaching the end near the top of the hat. Alternatively, you could chain separately and sew it onto the dress.

Torso: 3.5 hook in green

Rd 1: Attach green with a slip stitch to the purple bumps at the top of the hat and sc around (24)

Rd 2: (sc2tog, sc) around (16)

Rd 3: sc around (16)

Rd 4:, sc2togn around (8), sl st, fasten off, leaving a long end for sewing. Stuff the torso firmly.

NOTE – You will make three green leaves and sew this on to the torso, but do this AFTER sewing on the head. This will give more support to the toro and neck area.

Arms: 3.5 hk in green

Row 1: chain 9, sc in 2nd ch from hk and in each ch down (8), sl st, fasten off and sew into torso and dress so that it looks like her arms are resting on her lap.

Hands:

use your bulky off-white or skin colour of choice to embroider her hands onto the dress at the bottom of her sleeves.

Rd 10: (sc2tog, sc) around, leaving last two stitches, sc in last 2 (11)

Rd 11: (sc2tog, sc) around (7), sl st and fasten off

Mouth: in dark pink:

embroider a few strands to create a small smile

Stuff firmly and use the green yarn of the torso to sew securely to dress

Toros Leaves: Make 3 with 3.5 hk in green

Use the pattern from Repeat Crafter Me in the Resources section above to make three leaves. Sew one leaf in the back and two on either side, making sure to sew into the torso and into the neck. This step adds stability to your neck.

Hair:

Prepare yarn by folding your desired coloured yarn in half and cutting it from skein when the desired length is achieved. Put your hook under loops of the dark park of the top of the head, and pull up a loop of your hair yarn. Tie a knot by pulling the long strands through the loop and pulling tight. Continue to do this until you have covered most of her head. Optional: leave some of the front pink without long strands to create bangs. I used dark pink and embroidered strands down her forehead to mimic bangs.
