More Crocheted Goddesses :)

Ages ago I crocheted a cute little goddess from a pattern I found online. Now, do you think I can find that bloody pattern?! I've googled for literally hours with no luck, and I'm no good at fathoming out patterns from finished projects, lol. So...*fanfare*.... I've made one up! I'm excited because this is my first ever pattern, and I'm going to share it here. Please bear in mind that it is my first pattern so may not be perfectly written and if there are any mistakes, please let me know. Also, leave a message or link to pics if you do use this pattern, I would be so chuffed to see other creations from it! All I ask is that you don't sell my pattern or dollies made from it, thanks.

Little Amigurumi Goddess

I used a 3mm crochet hook and plain dk yarn but playing around with the hook size and yarn types will vary the finished doll, just remember to use a small enough hook so that there are no holes in the work or the stuffing will show through.

Body:

Make a magic loop, 4sc into it and pull closed.

2. Sc in next st, inc in next st, rpt around

Fasten off, leaving a long tail. Stuff more if needed using the straight end of a crochet hook. With a darning needle, sew the remaining hole closed and weave in the yarn end.

Arms:

These were too small for me to want to bother with stitch markers etc, so what I did was 4sc into a magic ring, pull closed and keep crocheting round until the arms reach the desired length. I did not stuff them but you could, or insert a pipe cleaner to enable them to be more poseable. Fasten them off leaving a long tail and sew them on with a darning needle.

Enjoy customising and playing around with this pattern and please remember to send me pictures of your finished dollies! Lots of love xxx
