About This Wednesday Amigurumi Pattern

This pattern guides you through crocheting a fully dressed Wednesday-inspired amigurumi doll with rooted hair and posable wire skeleton. It covers all pieces including head, body, arms, legs, clothes and accessories with clear round-by-round instructions. The design uses color changes and simple shaping to create clothing details like a checkered sweater and trousers.

You will learn hair planting with looped strands, how to insert wire for posability, and how to finish garments with small details. The finished doll measures approximately 33 cm when worked in the yarns and hook size recommended.

Why You'll Love This Wednesday Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it combines character and technique in a compact, rewarding project. I enjoy the balance of amigurumi shaping with miniature clothing—each piece adds personality to the doll. The hair planting and small accessories let me add creative, custom touches every time I make it. Seeing the finished doll stand with wired limbs always makes me smile, and I hope you will feel the same joy making it.

Switch Things Up

I love how easy it is to customize this pattern by changing colors; try soft pastels for a vintage look or bold contrasts for a modern twist.

You can scale the whole doll by switching yarn weight and hook size — use a thicker yarn and larger hook for a chunkier, cuddlier version or a finer yarn for a miniature keychain-sized friend.

I often add embroidered details on the sweater or tiny crocheted props like a book or a camera to give each doll unique personality and story.

Change the hairstyle by using different hair yarns or techniques: looped hair as written or individually knotted strands for a more natural look.

Try swapping the wire skeleton for pipe cleaners for a softer, bendable option that is easier to secure inside limbs.

I sometimes replace safety eyes with embroidered eyes for a vintage or child-safe version — this also lets you alter the expression easily.

Want a different outfit? Use the pants and shirt as a base and design coats, hats, or tiny shoes to coordinate — the pants pattern is very versatile for variations.

If you want it posable but simpler, skip the internal wire and reinforce seams with extra stuffing and surface sewing to keep arms and legs in place.

I recommend experimenting with textured stitches for the sweater to create a cozy, tactile finish — seed stitch or ribbing can add great detail.

For gifts, I like to add a small removable accessory like a scarf or tiny bag — these decorate the doll and give a crafting opportunity for quick, satisfying extras.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping stitch markers during the body join can cause misaligned legs and seams; place markers at the start of the joining round to ensure correct spacing and alignment. ✗ Changing colors without securing or running threads neatly can create bulky, messy inside work; carry or weave threads on the inside and hide ends as you go to keep transitions tidy. ✗ Not stuffing gradually leads to lumps or too-firm sections; stuff small portions at a time and shape as you add filling to maintain an even silhouette. ✗ Forgetting to insert wire before closing the torso will make posability difficult; place and adjust the arm and body wires before finishing and sewing the top closed to ensure proper placement and movement.

Info :

Start with skin yarn #458

Round 1 :

1 rnd : 6 dc in MR

Info :

Ears 20-22. Let's sew between the rows at a distance of 7 stitches from the eyes.

Info :

Nose 22-23. Let's work on 3 loops between the rows.

Info :

Let's process the eyes and eyebrows as in the image.

— Hair :

Info :

We will work with the method of planting hair with frequent needles. For this, we make markings from the very middle of the head, starting from the 10th row. Our finish should be at ear level. We knit loops over the points we marked. (Nako paris #217)

Info :

On the loops we knit, we will fold the 55 cm long ropes into 2 on the right and left parts and start attaching.

Info :

We make hair braids from the threads we process. For the bangs, we cut short strands and process them on the front parts of the hair.

— Sweater :

Info :

We will work on the sweater in black and white checkered patterns. I recommend that you move forward by releasing the threads in color transitions. Running the threads from the inside will be tight and will slip in the loops. The boxes on the template were calculated as 3 loops and 2 turns. The turns will always be made with 1 chain. Colors were coded with black (B) and White (W). Now you can start knitting either on the template or on the numbers.

Assembly Instructions

  • Attach safety eyes between the 20th and 21st rows of the head, leaving 10 stitches between the eyes before continuing the head rounds.
  • Insert and secure the arm wires and body wire prior to closing the torso; use 30 cm wires for arms and a 30 cm wire for the body as recommended, adjusting length to fit your doll.
  • Sew the ears between rows 20-22 at a distance of 7 stitches from the eyes and attach the small nose between rows 22-23 working on 3 loops.
  • Attach the head to the body by placing the knit piece into the head opening if applicable and sew securely; use the marker placement on the body to align shoulders and sew arms into position where body rounds show 13 stitches across front/back.

Important Notes

  • 💡Choose the correct hook size appropriate for the yarn you use to keep gauge consistent and the doll proportions correct.
  • 💡Stuff all pieces as you go, tight (unless otherwise stated), gradually adding small portions of stuffing and forming necessary shapes of pieces.
  • 💡Use stitch markers to mark the start of rounds and the positions for leg and arm joins to ensure symmetry and correct placement.
  • 💡When changing colors for the sweater or cuffs, manage and hide carried threads on the inside to avoid loose strands and bulky seams.
