NEW PATTERN - Chibi Amigurumi Kokeshi Doll

I've been making amigurumi kokeshi dolls for a few years now and people have been asking me to write up a crochet pattern for them. So I started out with the most popular one, which is this little girl with the two hair buns. She really looks more like a Chinese girl to me.

The pattern is called "Chibi" Kokeshi Doll. “Chibi” means small in Japanese but this little Chibi Kokeshi doll is not short on being cute. Kokeshi dolls are traditionally made out of wood with simple lines which makes them ideal for making into amigurumi.

It's on sale now at my Etsy shop or in my Ravelry pattern shop. If you are thinking about getting it, get it now before the price goes up in August.

Enjoy!

Harajuku Amigurumi Dolls

I'm starting to experiment with different hairstyles for my amigurumi dolls.  This is challenging since I can't even style my own hair, but hey, you have to start somewhere.  I like the hairstyles of cute anime characters so I took some inspiration from there.  Those gals have some freaky cuts and wild colors, so yes, this is going to be fun.  It's a work in progress, but here are some of the "gals" so far.
