33: (3 sc, dec) x3, 2 sc, dec (15)
34: 15 sc in BLO (15)
35-39: 15 sc (15)
Fasten off. Do not stuff the part after Row 34. Push this section inside the head (a chopstick can help).
Rows 24-27 are the front (belly); mark it with a pin for reference.
Neck Attachment:
Take a strong thread (not necessarily the same color) and a long needle (I used cotton yarn doubled).
Insert the needle into the magic ring at the base of the body and bring it out at the lower neck hole.
Insert it into the neck peg’s top and bring it out again next to the starting point, 1 sc apart.
Don’t tighten yet.
Repeat the same steps again, but this time pierce through a row above the neck decrease line.
Now pull gently on the threads at the crown and tie knots. Cut the ends (they’ll be hidden under the wig).
Eye Indentations:
Use the same yarn used for crocheting (the tension isn’t strong).
In Row 22, where the cheeks were increased, mark the center between them with a pin.
Count 19 rows down from the MR. Place 2 pins 9 sc apart for the eyes.
On Row 32 (under the head), place 2 pins 1 sc apart.
Insert the needle at the first eye point and bring it out at the right pin. Skip 1 sc to the right, reinsert into the second bottom pin.
Repeat for the left side. Gently pull, tie two knots, and hide the threads in the head.
Eyes and Embroidery: -Amigurumi Angel
Insert safety eyes (7 mm) where the top pins were. Fix with a dab of glue.
Use the back of your hook to create a hole before inserting the eyes.
Embroider eye whites using white yarn, halfway across the bottom of each eye.
Embroider lashes with Iris thread.
For the nose: use body yarn doubled. Make 3 stitches on the eye level (3 sc wide), then wrap yarn around to shape it.
Eyebrows:
Cut short lengths of Iris thread and pin them where you like. My spacing: 8 sc apart, 4 rows above the eyes. Stitch the eyebrows.
Mouth Indentation:
Go 3 rows below the nose, place 2 pins 1 sc apart.
Insert yarn from the crown and exit at the first pin. Go through to the second pin and exit back at the top, 1 sc from the entry point.
Pull gently, knot twice, and hide threads. Embroider a small smile (1 stitch) over the indent.
Ears (Make 2) – Amigurumi Angel
1: 6 sc in MR (6)
Tighten the ring, but do not join.
Make 1 ch, turn.
2: 6 sc (6)
Leave a long tail for sewing, fasten off.
Sew the ears at eye level, 8 sc apart from each other (indicated by arrows). The ear height is 4 rows.
Legs (Make 2) – Amigurumi Angel
Yarn: YarnArt Jeans color 03
Hook: 1.9 mm
1: 6 sc in MR (6)

4: ((1 sc, inc) x3, 3 sc) x2 (24)
5: ((2 sc, inc) x3, 3 sc) x2 (30)
Cut out an insole from plastic according to the sole size. I use an ice cream lid. To prevent slipping and ensure better adhesion, lightly sand the plastic with sandpaper before gluing.
6: BLO 30 sc (30)
7-9: 30 sc in both loops (30)
Apply glue (e.g., Moment Crystal) to one side of the insole, insert into the foot, wait for it to adhere, then continue crocheting.
10: 2 sc, 6 dec, 16 sc (24)
11: 5 dec, 12 sc, 1 dec (18)
Add stuffing and continue stuffing as you go.
12-26: 18 sc (18)
27: (1 sc, dec) x6 (12)
28: dec x6 (6), finish with a sl st
Do not overstuff the upper 3–4 rows of the leg.
Pull the opening closed. Secure the yarn, cut, and hide the tail.
Make the second leg the same way.
Arms (Make 2) – Amigurumi Angel
1: 5 sc in MR (5)
2: inc x5 (10)
3: (1 sc, inc) x5 (15)
4-9: 15 sc (15)
10: dec, sl st, dec, 3 sc, hdc, dec using hdc, hdc, 3 sc (12)
11-12: 3 sl st, 3 sc, 3 hdc, 3 sc (12)
13-18: 12 sc (12)
Stuff lightly so the arm doesn’t stick out.
19: 6 dec (6)
20: inc x6 (12)
21-22: 12 sc (12)
23: 6 dec (6)
Put a little stuffing in the fist, pull the hole closed, and hide the yarn tail.
Sewing on Legs and Arms (Button Jointing)
Attach the legs and arms using button jointing. Use 1.5 mm buttons.
Sew with strong thread—I use cotton yarn or multifiber yarn. You can also use any strong yarn in a color similar to the body.
Find the center of the body. The rows where we did decreases (24–27) are the front (belly)—use this as a reference.
From the magic ring on the body, count down 8 rows.
From the MR on the legs, count down 4 rows.
(Refer to the photo in the original pattern for placement.)
A diagram of the button jointing method is also provided in the source.
Finishing Touches
Lightly shade the brows and upper eyelids with brown eyeshadow.
Blush the cheeks with dry pastel or powder blush.
Embroider freckles using brown Iris thread.
Now we have a little bald cutie 😊
Let’s make him handsome—time for the wig!
Wig (Hair Cap) -Amigurumi Angel
Crochet Method: “V-stitch” strands
Yarn: “Pchyolka” (Troitskaya) Baby Series, color: sand
Hook: 1.9 mm
1: 8 sc in MR (8)
Next rows are worked in BLO
2: inc x8 (16)
3: (1 sc, inc) x8 (24), ch 2
4: (3 hdc, inc) x6 (30), sl st, ch 2
5: (4 hdc, inc) x6 (36), sl st, ch 2
6: (5 hdc, inc) x6 (42), sl st, ch 2
7: 42 hdc (42), sl st
Now make hair strands:
8: (ch 9, starting from 2nd ch from hook, 8 sc, 2 sl st across base) x21
Move to the next row using sl sts, and repeat the same process for the unused front loops from earlier rows, creating strands.
Continue this technique for the remaining rows until you reach the top of the head.
Leave a long tail for sewing, fasten off, and bring the tail to the wrong side.
This forms the hair cap.
Sewing the Wig
Attach the wig to the head. Position it 5 rows up from the eyebrows and secure with pins.
Sew around the outer edge first, then sew along the rows toward the crown.
The Baby is Ready — Time to Dress!
Jumpsuit -Amigurumi Angel
