This is an original amigurumi crochet pattern designed by me (Smiley Crochet Things) to make a mermaid doll. The pattern includes detailed step by step instructions and pictures.

Crochet Cordelia the beautiful mermaid yourself as a thoughtful gift or as a gift to yourself!

Intermediate / beginner pattern - a little crochet knowledge is necessary although only basic stitches are required (chain stitch, single crochet, slip stitch and double crochet are used within this pattern), the stitches used within this pattern are described in detail. This pattern uses the amigurumi method of working in spirals.

The doll is worked as one piece from the tail to the shoulders, so no need for much of that tedious hand sewing!

Using the materials suggested this pattern makes a doll that is 17cm (7 inches) tall and 10cm (4 inches) wide. Any yarn can be used with an appropriate sized hook, although other weights of yarn will affect the size of the finished item. No required tension, as long as it is worked fairly tightly so the stuffing doesn’t show through the holes.

Materials:

• dk/light worsted / 8ply yarn in the required colours (yarns used for picture were Rico Essentials Cotton (100% cotton yarn)
• 3mm crochet hook
• 6mm black safety eyes
• Polyester toy stuffing

Please always check materials and current safety standards before giving to a small child.
