Princess in Pink

If you know me (or have been following my account for any amount of time) then you know that my favorite princess is Cinderella. She is hard working, patient, and above all she is kind. I could go on all day about how much I love the original movie as well as the live action remake, but I won’t bore you with silly things like that! Let’s skip to why you are really here, the pattern!

Now this pattern is between beginner and intermediate and takes at least 3 hours to complete. The finished doll is roughly 4 inches tall and should be able to stand on her own. Lastly, the pattern is written using United States crochet terms.
