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.

this a few times to make sure your head is secured.

Ponytail
Using a 3.0 mm crochet hook and brown yarn…

Strand 4: Ch 21, sc into the 2nd ch from the hook, sc in the next 9 ch,
hdc into the remaining ch (20 sts)
Cut and fasten off, pinching the top of the 3 strands together. Leave a
tail long enough to sew to the rest of the hairpiece.
There are 3 long strands and 1 short strand. After twisting the 3 long
strands together counter-clockwise, you’ll notice that there’s a bit of a
gap at the top of the ponytail. Twist the short strand in the same
direction and tuck it into the top of the ponytail to give it a bit more
volume.
Hair Tie

First Bead: Ch 4, bobble st into the 3rd ch from the hook, then
without cutting/fastening, ch 4, bobble st into the 3rd ch from the
hook. Now you have two bobble stitches, slst into the very first ch you
made to make one pompom.
Second Bead: Repeat the steps for the first pompom to make the
second one.
Finishing Touches
