It's quite a simple pattern that can be altered to your needs/taste. I used a 2" styrofoam ball for this one but you can stuff it with fiberfill(etc) as well. I used ribbon and yarn for the bows but again, it's up to you how you choose to style the hair(or not). My ornaments have their face embroidered on(the cheeks and lips) except for the eyes, which i used two tiny dots of fabric paint for.
I chose not to explain every little thing in the tutorial since learning the real basics(ie what is an 'increase'?) can be easily found/learned via other tutorials and so forth. Enjoy!
Face
- 6 sc in magic circle - 6
- Inc all stitches - 12
- (1sc, 1 increase)* (repeat for the whole row) - 18
- (2sc, 1 increase)* - 24
- (3sc, 1 increase)* - 30
- Sc in all stitches - 30
- Sc in all stitches - 30
- (3sc, 1 decrease)* - 24
Finish off, no tail needed
Hair
Sewing Together
Fit the hair and face over the styrofoam ball so the ends overlap. Position the hair to your liking and sew to the face. Add a bow and embroider the face. Done!
*I show some bonus footage at the end of the video on how i add the loop on the ornament.
