Our latest creation is Alice, the star of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland (and a sometimes Disney Princess). She would be very happy with her friend, the Mad Hatter (free pattern here).
I am planning on making a series of these Amigurumi dolls from pop culture, so if you would like to request a pattern for a certain character (I’ll do my best!) please let me know by commenting below.
If you would like to be updated every time I post a new pattern, please fill in the form ‘Subscribe to blog via email’ (on the right hand side on desktop view, or scroll down on mobile).
Please also take a look at our other Amigurumi patterns…

You can use any yarn and crochet hook combination that gives you good tension. Normally this would be a hook around two sizes smaller than that recommended on the yarn label. For Alice I used a 2.75 mm hook with 8ply/DK acrylic yarn.
