Start crocheting

Unless speciied, this pattern is worked

in the amigurumi style, in a spiral without

slipstitching or turning chains. Use a st

marker or waste yarn to keep track of the

irst st of each rnd. Claude is made from

multiple pieces sewn together. Some of the

pieces are made incrementally from other

pieces. To avoid confusion, make the pieces

in order. Unless otherwise stated, inish

each piece by pulling the yarn through the

last loop leaving a long tail for sewing. Any

loose tails at the end can be easily weaved

into the amigurumi doll. When decreasing,

use the invisible decrease technique.

Tension is not critical for this project, but

sts should be tight enough to avoid stufing

showing through. Pin pieces in place before

sewing together to ind the perfect position

and avoid pieces moving.
