Dear friends,
let me introduce myself
My name is Kseniya, and for the past four years crocheting has been
my hobby. I'm absolutely obsessed with crocheting Amigurumi toys
and photographing my toys in the best way to present my creations.
Perhaps, the idea to combine these two kinds of expressing myself is
the true reason why I'm so obsessed with amigurumi and that is why
we are both here to crochet the new cheeky outfit for my little doll -
Pumpkin.

First one: as long as the body of the second doll was crocheted with Alize Cotton
Gold yarn, which is thinner than YarnArt Jeans, the doll became a little smaller than
the 1st one.
Second one: because of the new color scheme I didn't crochet the tights on the doll. I
did change the yarn color like if she is wearing the pink bodysuit. To make that I
crochet the legs only in skin color, after this I change the yarn from yellow (35) in
round 12 to the skin color (499). I used the pink yarn only when I made a chain for
the leg joining in round 39. Starting from the chain and till the round 75 I used the
pink yarn only.

pants 1
With the yarn of denim color #1133, starting
from the trousers legs.
Fasten off for the 1st leg, make the 2nd one.
Don't cut the thread for the 2nd leg and
crochet one more rnd of 36 sc, continue to
crochet:
2
make a chain of 2 sts (рiс. 3), make 1 sc into
the stitch before the last one on the 1st leg
(рiс. 4):

28. (9 sc, dec)*6 (60)
29-32. 60 sc (60), 4 rnds
Now we need to fold the pants in half for symmetry
and divide the work in the next way: 28 sts for the
front side, 28 sts for the back side and 2 sts between
these parts (рiс. 7, 8), crochet till the 1st (left) marker
on the back side (I had 16 sc), make a ch and
continue in turning rows:
1. 28 sc, ch (28)
2. from the 3rd st from the hook: 25 sc, dec, ch (26)
3. 26 sc, ch (26)
4. from the 3rd st from the hook: 23 sc, dec, ch(24)
5. 24 sc, ch(24)
To make the stitches of
the turning rows look
neater, you can take a
6 crochet hook of a
smaller size. For

example, Clover Amour
1.75 mm.
