This pattern created for beginner-immediate crocheter. It works up quite fast, we only need about 1-2 hours to finish each Pokemon.
I used DK weight yarn and crochet hook size 3 mm. The finished result is about 2.75 inches from head to bottom. I also used 6 mm size safety eyes. Please adjust the safety eyes size according to your yarn weight.
Keep your stitches tight and consistent. If you see holes in your doll, try working with a tighter tension or use a smaller hook size so that your stitches are nice and tight.
Using invisible decrease (dec) instead of sc2tog is very recommended when making amigurumi; you can’t even tell that the stitches are decreasing.
