You should definitely try this reversible long dress crochet doll. This autumn harvest-themed crochet doll pattern, designed for beginners and intermediate users, includes detailed instructions. Every step-by-step detail is explained with photos. I’d like to thank our designer for this wonderful amigurumi doll. It took me back to my childhood. I haven’t seen a retro amigurumi doll pattern like this lately. The doll’s dress is reversible. One side is decorated with blue daisies, while the other side features a yellow dress with a squirrel embroidered on the skirt. Of course, I’ve included a diagram showing how to embroider the squirrel.
