ASSEMBLING YOUR DOLL
Using your tapestry needle and yarn tail from the head, attach your amigurumi Troll Doll’s head on top of the body. The base of the head should sit above rnd 5 of body. Add more stuffing as needed to get the right shape. Attach legs to bottom of body over rnd 15 with 3 sts between legs. Attach arms to each side of Amigurumi Troll Doll between rnds 5 and 6.

HAIR
How to crochet hair? I used scraps of Loopy Mango Merino No. 5 yarn. I recommend using 100% wool yarn or wool roving for the hair so you can brush it out and achieve a similar look.
How to crochet hair tutorial with layout of where to put Troll Doll Hair.

Step 1: Cut your wool into 7 inch pieces. I used 24 pieces for my Amigurumi Troll Doll’s hair. You want your yarn weight to be similar to a worsted weight yarn. Because I am using a chunky yarn, I’ve separated each strand in 2.
Step 2: Plot where you’d like your hair to go. I dispersed my hair clumps like this.
Step 3: Insert hook from back to front, fold yarn in half and drape over hook.
Step 4: Pull through yarn only this much. Then bring yarn ends through loop. Pull tight.
Step 5: Using a wire brush, brush out hair. Cut hair to desired shape.

BELLY GEM
Step 1: Attach a piece of wool yarn (same method as hair) over rnd 11 of body.
Step 2: Twist and shape yarn into a circle. Using a needle-felting tool, make the gem more compact.
