Stretch the loop out, leaving about 10 cm of yarn. Cut the yarn, stuff the head with PP cotton, and sew to close.

In this section, you start with a basic circular base using a magic ring. The pattern uses increasing rounds for shaping and decreasing rounds to close the head.

Eyes and Nose Placement

2. For the nose, position it in the middle of the face. Press the plastic pad gently to secure.
For beginners: The eyes and nose create "Pacha’s" personality! You can embroider details for a personalized touch or use store-bought safety features.

Stuffing

Before sealing the head, fill it with PP cotton stuffing.
- Soft texture: Use less stuffing.
- Firm texture: Use more stuffing.
  Tightly close the opening using a tapestry needle, sewing through the last round of stitches and pulling tight.

Assembly & Finishing

Attaching the Ears

Flatten the ears, squish them slightly at the base, and sew three stitches back and forth to hold firmly.
Position the ears between the second and third rounds of the doll’s head.
Attach securely by stitching along the edges. Hide excess thread within the fabric and trim any remaining yarn.

Repeat for the second ear, ensuring symmetry.

For beginners: Use basic sewing techniques to attach the ears sturdily, making sure the placement matches on both sides.

The pattern progresses by working Single Crochet (Sc) for basic shaping and includes Increases (Inc) for expanding rounds and Decreases (Dec) for tapering or closing shapes. The doll is assembled by sewing the ears, eyes, and nose onto the head, followed by closing the opening with stuffing.
