Anakin Skywalker Doll (Free Amigurumi Crochet Pattern)
Dear fellow amigurumi enthusiasts,
I'm super excited to share with you my latest design, the Anakin Skywalker Inspired Doll! He's my cute, pocket-sized yarn version of the iconic Star Wars character. An absolutely adorable boy doll, especially as a tiny amigurumi perfect for little hands!
This pattern is quick and easy to crochet and makes a great toy gift for kids and children alike. This versatile pattern can also serve as a male human body base to crochet into other custom characters.
I also made a Stormtrooper that goes along with this Anakin Skywalker doll. If you'd like to make this duo, check out his pattern page too!

~ FINISHING INSTRUCTIONS ~
- Use the surface slip stitch method (click here for video tutorial) and dark brown yarn to crochet a “belt” around the doll’s waist, over R4 of the body. (Step-by-step photo references are available in the PDF pattern.)
- Using a yarn needle and the yarn tails from the arms, sew the arms to both sides of the body.
- Then, sew the body to the head.
- Use light brown yarn to loop around the doll’s neck a couple times, then diagonally across the chest (this creates the illusion of a shirt fold). Pull the yarn end into the doll, weaving it in securely before fastening off.
Congratulations on finishing your Anakin Skywalker Doll!
