Finished size and gauge
Josephine is approximately 19 cm / 7.5 inches tall. Exact gauge is not necessary for this project. If you use a bigger hook, she will be bigger. Her measurements will change depending on the hook and yarn you use. It’s important to crochet tight, to avoid the stuffing showing up after filling.
Notes and abbreviations
The pattern is written in US American crochet terms.
You will use these stitches:
st = stitch
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
sc = single crochet
hdb = half double crochet
dc = double crochet
sk = skip
BLO = back loops only
FLO = front loops only
FO = fasten off
Yo = yarn over
Rep = repeat
dec = decrease
inc = increase
Invisible decrease: A method of decreasing. Insert hook into the front loop of the next two stitches and pull a loop up through both. Yarn over and pull through last two loops left on the hook.
Josephine is worked in continuous rounds unless otherwise instructed.

Rnd 28.
Dress
Now go back to Rnd 28 of the body where you can see there the front loops wherein we’re going to start crocheting the dress. Join with a sc. Finish each row of the dress with a sl st, than ch 1 before you start the following rows. Ch 1 doesn’t count as a sc.

With white yarn ch 20 and join with a sl st into the front loop of the dress. Crochet slip stitches all along into the front loops, and when you reach the other marker crochet ch 20. Fasten off and make a nice bow.
Legs
Now you need to mark the places where you will start to crochet the legs.
Place the doll in front of you, flatten it and mark the places of the legs: 9 stitches for both legs and 3-3 stitches between them on both sides. The bow of the dress should be in the middle (of the legs) while you mark the places.
With skin colour join with a sc for the doll’s leg. When you reach your marker just simply join the other side with a sc.
Row 1-16. sc into each (9)

Place the arms onto the body, secure them with a few pins and sew them carefully onto their place.
Now place the doll in front of you, and mark the two middle stitches next to each other in front of the doll’s leg, as shown in the picture. In the following round you will have to increase where you marked those stitches:
Rnd 17. inc into the marked stitches and sc into each of the others (11)
Rnd 18. inc into each stitches you increased at rnd
17, sc into each of the other st (15)
Rnd 19. sc into each (15)
Rnd 20. dec each st, sc into last (8)
Stuff the leg firmly, fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Use the yarn and a needle to close up the hole by stitching back and forth across the opening. Weave yarn into the legs.
Before you start the other leg, close the three stitches hole between the two legs.
Make the other leg by joining at the back of the doll.

For the following 6 stitches of the wig you will make 2 hair strands into each st:
Ch 20, turn to 2nd ch from hook with a sl st, and sl st all along back (all in all: 36 hair strands in 24 stitches of the wig)
For the following 18 stitches of the wig you
will make the bangs:

Place the hair onto the doll’s head and secure it with a few pins. Sew it carefully onto the head where the wig meets the hair strands.
Now secure the hair strands onto the head with pins and sew the top part of the strands onto the head with a few stitches. The 6-6 stitches where you crocheted the 2 hair strands, sew only every second strand onto the head. Sew the bangs onto the head as well.

You may add some extra rounds to reach the
desired length for the hat.
Make a pompon for the hat:
Grab a fork and wrap your yarn
around the prongs of your fork
several times and then cut the
end of the yarn. Cut a long piece
of yarn, and thread beneath your
yarn wraps between 2nd and 3rd
fork prong. Pass the other end of
the yarn between the prongs. Pull
both ends and tie into a tight
knot. Slip yarn bundle off the fork.
Snip through all the loops of yarn.
Trim any uneven ends.
Tie it onto the top of the hat.

Weave yarn into the head.
Embroider the nose onto the head. Place two pins between rnds 6 and 7, 2 stitches apart as shown in the picture.
Granny square for the body
Follow the diagram to crochet the body of the bunny. After row 5 change colour to pink.
See below the written instruction.
You may add a ch 1 space between each cluster of 3 dc. There’s almost no difference between the
space made naturally between the 3 dc or the space made with a ch 1, so that’s just really up to you to add or not.
Rnd 1. Ch 4, and form a ring. Into the ring:
ch 3, 2 dc, you now have a cluster of three dc because the first chain three counts as the
first dc. Chain 2: this creates the first corner. 3 dc into the ring, ch 2 to make your next corner. Rep that previous step twice more. Slip stitch into the 3rd chain of the first “chain three” to close the round.
Rnd 2. Ch 3, 2 dc into the same corner. Into the following corner: 3 dc, 2 ch, 3 dc. Rep in
the next corner. 3 dc, chain two into the last corner, sl st to the 3rd ch of the first “chain three” to close the round.
Rnd 3. Ch 3, 2 dc into the same corner. 3 dc into the next space (not a corner!). Into the
following corner: 3 dc, 2 ch, 3 dc. Rep the previous two steps around the square. When
you get to the last corner, 3 dc, ch 2 and sl st to the 3rd ch of the first “chain three” to close the round.
Rnd 4-6. You can continue increasing the size of your granny square by work 3 dc, 2 ch,
3 dc in each corner and 3 dc in each space between the corners. Change colour at rnd 6.
You are ready with Josephine, the sleeping doll. I hope you enjoyed making her as much as I enjoyed making this pattern. Don’t forget, if you have any questions or need clarifications on any of the instructions, I’m here to help you!
