Pattern Overview

This pattern is written in US English and is designed to recreate the doll in the image as closely as possible.

The doll has a large round head, a slim neck, a narrow upper torso, a full skirted lower body, short standing legs, small rounded shoes, soft dangling arms, long wavy hair, pointed fairy ears, large white wings, a bluebell hat, a small handbag, a flower basket, and a tiny teapot.

The overall look depends on tight stitches, neat shaping, balanced stuffing, and careful layering.

Finished size: about 13 to 15 inches tall including hat, depending on yarn and tension.

Materials

• Main skin tone yarn: light peach or warm beige cotton, DK or fine worsted
• Dress blue yarn: dusty sky blue cotton, DK
• White yarn: bright white cotton, DK

• ch = chain
• sl st = slip stitch
• sc = single crochet
• inc = 2 sc in same stitch

• dc = double crochet
• tr = treble crochet
• BLO = back loop only

Gauge and Construction Notes

This doll should be worked with very tight tension so the stuffing does not show through.

Most body pieces are crocheted in continuous rounds unless noted otherwise.

Use a stitch marker at the start of every round.

The dress is built in layers over the body to match the richly tiered look in the image.

The underskirt and overskirt both matter. Do not skip them.

Many trims are decorative and should be sewn on after blocking lightly with fingers.

Important shaping note: the doll in the image has a relatively large head, compact torso, and wide lower silhouette. Keep the upper body slim and let the skirt create volume.

Color Placement Summary

• Skin: head, neck, arms, hands, ears
• Blue: bodice, sleeves, overskirt, hat, shoes, purse
• White: lace trim, apron panels, wings, underskirt edging, hat edge
• Gray: hair
• Accent florals: front panel motifs, rose trims, basket flowers, teapot flowers

1. Rnd/Row 1: 2 hdc in each stitch around edge
2. Rnd/Row 2: hdc across

• At underskirt reveal
• At sleeve cuffs
• At hat brim edge

A simple lace strip can be made with ch 20 to 40, then repeating (sc, ch 2, skip 1) back.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

Sew the head to the torso securely and make sure the face points slightly forward, not upward.

Attach the arms low enough to preserve the narrow shoulder line.

Sew the wings symmetrically on the upper back.

Arrange the hair before attaching the hat.

Sew the hat slightly tilted and add the roses after final positioning.

Lightly blush the cheeks.

If desired, add a few tiny eyelashes with black thread, but keep them soft and short.

Place the purse on one arm or stitch it lightly to the hand so it hangs naturally.

Styling Tips for a More Accurate Result

• Keep the head large compared to the torso
• Use firm stuffing in the head and neck
• Keep the torso slim so the dress silhouette stays elegant
• Do not skip the underskirt, because it creates the correct layered look
• Use lots of trim, especially in white
• Set the wings high behind the shoulders
• Keep the hair soft and face-framing
• Let the hat brim curve gently rather than lying flat

Care Notes

Display the doll away from direct sunlight to protect the yarn colors.

Handle the wings, hat brim, and small accessories gently.

If the skirt loses shape, smooth it by hand and let it rest upright.

Quick Checklist Before You Finish

• Head centered and stable
• Eyes even and expression soft
• Ears matched and placed evenly
• Hair balanced on both sides
• Hat tilted neatly
• Wings even and symmetrical
• Apron centered
• Front skirt opening balanced
• Lace trims secured
• Purse, basket, and teapot completed

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines

Dust gently with a soft dry brush.

Spot clean only with a lightly damp cloth and mild soap if needed.

Do not soak the doll unless all parts are securely fastened and colorfast.

Dry flat and reshape the skirt, hat, and wings while damp.

Store in a breathable box or cabinet, never in sealed plastic for long periods.

For collector display, support the skirt from underneath with tissue so the tiers keep their volume.
