Before you start, some tips!
How to do color change
Before we start, let’s see how to do the marked color change that will be used in some parts of this recipe.
1 – In the last stitch of the row in which the color change will occur, lace the new color with the needle and work along the entire length of the piece with a slip stitch, using only the back loop (blo).
2 – The next row must be woven again only through the back loop (blo). You can use only the new color back strap or both the new and old color back straps. The first way the stitch is looser, the second way tighter.
1st step – Shoes Start with white.
1 – 7 ch., on the second chain from the needle do: 1 inc, 4 sc, 1 triple inc, 4 sc, 1 inc (15) Insert a guide thread in another color here.
2 – 2 inc, 4 inc, 3 inc, 6 inc (20)
3 – 1 inc, 1 sc, 1 inc, 5 sc, 1 sc 1 inc (3x), 5 sc, 1 inc (26)
4 – 2 sc, 1 sc (2x), 5 sc, 8 sc, 7 sc (36)
5 – 12 sc in blo (with white thread); 17 sc in blo (with blue thread); 7 sc in blo (with white thread) (36)
6 – 12 sc in blo (with white thread); 17 sc in blo (with blue thread); 7 sc in blo (with white thread) (36)
7 and 8 – 12 sc (with white thread); 17 sc (with blue thread); 7 sc in (with white thread) (36)
9 – 12 sc (with white thread); 1 dec 1 sc (5x) 1 sc (with blue thread); 7 sc in (with white thread) (30)
Before weaving the next round, cut out an oval base with the measurements of the sole and insert it into the bottom of the shoe. This will help make your foot straighter.
10 – 12 sc (with white thread); 5 dec and 1 sc (with blue thread); 7 sc in (with white thread) (25)
11 – 12 sc (with white thread); 3 dec (with blue wire); 7 sc in (with white thread) (22)
12 – 10 sc, 4 dec, 4 sc (now white thread only) (18)
Change the yarn to the chosen skin color and let’s go to the leg.
With the blue thread, return to row 5 and sc all the way around to finish the sole of the shoe.
EXECUTION
Legs and lower body
13 – 18 sc in blo (18)
14 – 8 sc, 3 dec, 4 sc in blo (15)
15 to 20 – 15 sc (15).
21 – 1 inc and 1 sc (7x) 1 inc. (23) Cut the thread and fasten off.
Fill the foot and leg with hypoallergenic silicone fiber as you weave. If you are going to use wire frames on your doll, put stuffing on the legs only after you insert the wire.
Before proceeding, let’s make the shorts!
With the lilac thread (or whatever color you want to use in the shorts) leave a long thread before starting the chain (enough to make 23 sc).
Now do:
1 – 23 chain, close the circle with a sc.
2 and 3 – 23 sc (23). Do not cut the wire yet. return to the first row, lace the initial thread left and make 23 sc to finish the shorts. Return to row 3 and let’s continue.
22 – fit the leg inside the shorts, aligning the last stitch of row 3 with the last stitch made on the leg. To join them, you must weave 23 sc, using only the front loop of the shorts stitches and the front loop of the leg stitches (23)
23 and 24 – 23 sc (23)
The next row will be different for the first and second leg.
First leg:
25 – make only 7 sc, cut the thread and finish off.
second leg:
25 – do only 19 sc and 3 more chain.
26 – this is the leg joining row. Join the second leg to the first with 1 sc and do another 10 sc, 1 inc, 5 sc, 1 inc, 5sc, 3 sc on the back loops of the joining chains, 05 sc, 1 inc, 5 sc, 1 inc, 11 sc , 3 sc on the front loops of the joining chains (56)
27 to 30 – 56 sc (56)
The next rows will be the top of the garment.
31 – make 56 sc in flo (front handles) (56)
32 – 56 sc (56)
33 – 5 sc and 1 dec (8x) (48)
34 – in this row we will make the garment handles. Make 3 sc, 1st loop: 25 chain, make 24 sc starting from the second chain from the needle, 40 sc, 2nd loop: 25 chain, make 24 sc starting from the second chain from the needle, secure at the base with 1 sc, cut the thread and finish leaving the 2nd loop very tight.
Once the body is ready, cross the straps across the back of the doll and sew.
