Curly Hair
Attach your variegated hair color yarn to the center front loops of the hair cap.
Working in a continuous spiral, crochet into every unworked front loop left behind on the hair cap:
(Ch 5, sl st into the next front loop). Repeat this sequence until you have covered all the exposed front loops on the cap.
Fasten off. Pin the hair cap to the head (positioning the front edge about two rounds above the eyes) and sew it securely in place.
Part 1: The Pumpkin Skirt
Note: The builds the skirt directly onto an existing basic long-legged doll body base. Attach your orange yarn to the unworked FLO loops around the midsection/waist of the doll, starting at the center back.
Round 1: Ch 1, work 2 sc into every FLO loop around. (48 sts)
Round 2: 1 bo, 5 sc. Repeat this sequence around to the end of the row. (You will have 8 bobbles total, forming the start of the pumpkin’s vertical sections).
Round 3 – 9: Repeat the Round 2 sequence (1 bo, 5 sc) for 7 more rows. Make sure the bobble stitches align directly over each other row by row to create defined vertical ridge stripes.
Round 10: [1 dec, 4 sc] repeat around. (40 sts)
Round 11: [1 dec, 3 sc] repeat around. (32 sts)
Fasten off, pull the tail through to the inside of the skirt, tie a secure knot, and weave in your ends.
Part 2: The Hair Cap & Strands
Using Grass Green Yarn:
Round 1: 6 sc in a MR. (6 sts)
Round 2: 6 inc. (12 sts)
Round 3: [1 sc, inc] 6 times. (18 sts)
Round 4: [2 sc, inc] 6 times. (24 sts)
Now begin crafting the individual hair strands directly from the edge of the cap base:
Strands 1 – 5 (Short Bangs): Ch 7, starting in the 3rd ch from the hook, crochet 5 dc down the chain. Skip 1 base stitch on the cap, and sl st into the next base stitch. Repeat until you have 5 short strands.
Strands 6 – 12 (Long Side Strands): Ch 12, starting in the 3rd ch from the hook, crochet 10 dc down the chain. Skip 1 base stitch on the cap, and sl st into the next base stitch. Repeat until you have 7 long strands.
Fasten off, leaving an extra-long tail for sewing the hair piece onto the doll’s head.
Part 3: The Pumpkin Hat
Start using Brown Yarn for the top stem:
Round 1: 6 sc in a MR. (6 sts)
Round 2: 6 inc. (12 sts)
Round 3: Working in BLO, sc in each st around. (12 sts)
Round 4 – 6: Working through both loops normally, sc in each st around. (12 sts for 3 rounds)
Change to Orange Yarn on the last stitch of Round 6.
Round 7: [1 sc, inc] 6 times. (18 sts)
Round 8: [1 bo, 1 sc, inc in next st] repeat around. (24 sts, 6 bobbles total)
Round 9: [1 bo, 2 sc, inc in next st] repeat around. (30 sts)
Round 10: [1 bo, 3 sc, inc in next st] repeat around. (36 sts)
Round 11: [1 bo, 4 sc, inc in next st] repeat around. (42 sts)
Round 12: [1 bo, 5 sc, inc in next st] repeat around. (48 sts)
Fasten off, leaving a long yarn tail for assembly. Pop and align the bobbles outward so they stack vertically.
Part 4: Vine Tendrils (Make 2)
Using Grass Green Yarn:
Leave a tail at the beginning, then ch 18.
Starting from the 2nd chain from your hook, work 17 sl st back down the chain. Pull slightly firmly on the outer edge as you work to encourage the strand to naturally twist into a spiral.
Fasten off, leaving a tail to tie it to the hat.
Part 5: Assembly & Finishing Touches
Hat Details: Take the two green vine tendrils and pull their yarn tails through the base of the brown stem on the hat (around Round 6/7). Secure them tightly on the inside of the hat with a few knots. Add a tiny pinch of fiberfill stuffing inside the brown cavity of the stem.
Attaching Hair: Position the green hair piece onto the cream head cap. Center the short bangs directly between the eyes, leaving a space of about 4 stitches above the eyes. Pin all the strands flat against the head so no white spaces show through, then sew down the perimeter of the hair cap and along each individual strand with small, invisible stitches.
Attaching Hat: Place the completed pumpkin hat slightly tilted on the doll’s head, covering the back edge where the hair cap ends. Secure it using straight stitches along the inner row of the hat rim so the outer edge stays textured and dimensional.
Final Touch: Use a small makeup brush or cotton swab with pink cosmetic blush to gently color the doll’s cheeks directly under her safety eyes.
