Insert eyes between R10 and R11 about 6 stitches apart. I like to embroider the eyes before stuffing the head as well. Start with white yarn and outline the outside half of the safety eye. Then using black yarn, create a top lid on the outside quarters of the eye and add eyelashes. See Figures.
Stuff the head with medium firmness.
R16 – *sc, inv dec* repeat x6 (12 sts)
R17 – sc in front loops only in each sc (12 sts)

(This is where the legs begin) Sc until you are at the center of the back of the body. Ch 1, sc to the sc 7 sts away (center of the front of the body). You are going to be creating two legs that are 7 stitches around, 6 stitches of the original round plus the chain.
First Leg
R21-27 – sc in each sc (7 sts each round) Tie off. Sew through the front loops of the 7 stitches and pull tight to close the end of the leg.

R21 – sc 5, ch 1 and then sc into the same sc as the slip stitch (7 sts)
R22-27 – sc in each sc (7 sts each round) Tie off. Sew through the front loops of the 7 stitches and pull tight to close the end of the leg.
Arms (make 2)
Using Cream Yarn, ch 2, sc 5 into the second ch from the hook
R1-5 – sc in each stitch. (5 sts per round)
Tie off leaving a tail for sewing.
Sew the arms to the body between R17 and R18
Clover Dress
Heart Leaves (make 4)
Using Green Yarn, ch 3, dc 10 into the third chain from the hook.
Slip stitch to the original chain
slip stitch in next stitch, chain 2
In the next stitch dc, then 4 triple crochet.
Next stitch 2 dc.
Dc in next 2 stitches.
Next stitch dc, tc, dc
Dc in next 2 stitches
4 tc, dc
Slip stitch to first slip stitch. Tie off
Assembling Dress
Using Green Yarn, slip stitch to the dc just right of the tc point of a heart. Sc in the next 3 stitches of the heart. Sc in the same 4 stitches of the other 3 hearts so they are all linked together.
Sc into the first slip stitch. Sc into the next 15 stitches.
Ch 6, skip 6 stitches, sc 4, ch 6, skip 6 stitches, slip stitch. Tie off.
Hair
Switch to 5mm hook
Using Orange Yarn, ch 2 and sc 6 into the second ch from the hook.
Note: I made a short tutorial reel on my Instagram (@thecrochetqueendesigns) on making the curls if you like having a visual guide. I know this portion of the pattern is rather wordy.
