Dear fellow crocheters,

If you're wondering how to add blush to your amigurumi dolls, I'd love to share with you my method of doing so!  It's super quick and easy, and I use actual blush powder to dab it onto my art dolls.  Check out my video tutorial below to learn how I apply it to my little model, Emerie the Emerald Princess!


Warmly,

Emerie the Emerald Princess is a member of Sweet Softies’ Darling Dolls Series.  This pattern provides instructions for crocheting Emerie, a beautiful young princess wearing a removable royal crown and a long-sleeved dress that goes down to her ankles.  She is a very sweet girl and can easily be customized using different yarn colors and added embellishments, such as buttons, lace, appliques, and more.  She makes a lovely gift for little girls, who can have lots of fun styling her hair as well!

Some tidbits about Emerie!

• Emerie’s favorite activities include gardening and taking a walk or reading books in her flower garden.
• Emerie practices good manners and tries to be polite at all times.
• Emerie’s favorite quote is: “Kindness is the sunshine in which all virtue grows.” – Robert Green Ingersoll  

Video tutorials for attaching hair, styling the hair, and adding blush to the doll are also available on the Sweet Softies Youtube Channel.


This 16-page PDF pattern includes complete written instructions with accompanying photo references for crocheting this doll in its entirety.
