— Pattern Notes :
Info :
I use the *ch 2, sc in second ch from hook* method to crochet in the round. You can substitute for the magic circle, it just isn't my preferred method. This pattern is written in US terms and is advanced beginner skill level. When working with amigurumi, be sure to crochet tightly unless otherwise specified in the pattern. When tying off ends, you should assume that you are leaving a long tail for sewing. Have fun!

To sew Cape Bottom on, use tail from beginning to join cape into a circle around R20 of Body and tack to body. Weave in end tail.
— Hair :
Info :
In Orange Yarn, ch 31, turn *sc 2, sc 1* x15, tie off
Info :
To attach hair, first sew 10 of the spirals evenly along the head like a wig cap, giving her a middle part. I sew the tail straight through the curl so it doesn't lose its “curliness” and tack down the curl at both ends. I have a video description on my Story Highlights on Instagram (@thecrochetqueendesigns). Then add 3 spirals to each side of her head as a second layer to create her iconic poofs.

Info :
NOTE: an alternative way to do this is to do a sc chainless foundation stitch, this is my prefered method because you can add or subtract length easier if needed
Info :
Sew this long piece around the cap in a swirl, starting in the back and spiraling up to the top.
Purple Streak :
Using a rather long piece of light purple yarn, start at the top of the hair and weave in and out of the spiral until you reach the bottom, then weave back up to the top. Add as many streaks as you like.

Info :
I apologize that these sewing instructions got dropped from this version of the PDF I created.
Blonde Witch Hood and Cape :
To attach the hood sew the bottom of the hood (the side with only sc) to the base of the back of the head, then pull the yarn up through the middle of the head to tack the top of the hood down. I leave it fairly loose so it has a more natural hood shape.
Info :
To attach the cape, Sew the initial ch7 to the base of the back of the head, where you attached the bottom of the hood.
