Notes
I made this amigurumi doll using the “Yarn Under Single Crochet”
technique. This technique makes the stitches tighter and appears
more aligned.
I also used a half-color changing technique to achieve cleaner lines
when changing colors from one row to another.
When working on the hairpiece, I used the underside of the piece
as the “outside” or the side that is showing. The curls of the
strands will follow a natural curl towards the face.
I used the invisible fasten-off method to neatly finish the work
before I weaved in my ends.
