Finishing

Step 1
Sew the pieces of your crochet doll together as follows:

Step 1
Attach the arms on both sides of the body, on Round 2 of the dress.

Step 2
Attach the head to the top of the body. The bottom of the head is 12 stitches and the top of the body is 12 stitches, so they should match up nicely.

Step 3
The sandals can be placed on without sewing, but you may sew them on if you prefer.

Step 4
Attaching the hair: starting with the long lengths, sew them onto the head randomly as shown above. Then sew the medium lengths and lastly the small lengths.

Step 5
Add snakeheads on the hair ends: Cut little tongues from light pink felt and cut the eyes from white felt. Mark the eyes with a black marker for the pupils. Attach to the hair ends with fabric glue.

Step 6
Attach the little monster ears to the hood on Round 6 of the hood, about 6 or 7 sts apart. Slip the head into the hood. It does not need sewing, but you may sew it on if you wish.
