Christmas Elf Ragdoll · Amigurumi Crochet Pattern

If you're seeking the perfect Christmas doll to crochet as eye-catching holiday decor or an amazing Christmas gift, you've come to the right page. Here's my Christmas Elf Ragdoll pattern, a classic doll that is sure to bring some festive vibes! 

Links


The Christmas Elf Ragdoll is a large, 15 inch plush doll that works up rather quickly. Its design features defined boots (realistic-looking feet with protruded toes), striped candy-cane socks, a festive outfit, and a classic Santa hat. 

Here's a quick video preview~ 


Oh, and here's my 4-year-old cuddling the doll. Quite a large amigurumi, don't you think? It's a huggable size! 


This Santa’s helper is low-sew, as the legs, arm, head, and hat are all crocheted in a no sew manner. Only the ears and hair cap require sewing to the head.  


About the Pattern

  • Height: 15 inches
  • No-sew doll base (sewing only required for ears and hair cap) 
  • Suitable for intermediate crocheters
  • Materials list and stitches/terms used can be found on the pattern page
  • Pattern includes 60+ photos as part of a detailed photo tutorial to help guide you through the doll-making process

Recommended Yarn

This doll is designed using Hobbii Toucan Yarn, which is a super bulky weight 6 chenille velvet yarn. Blanket yarn is another option for a big plush! Alternatively, you can use thinner yarns like DK or worsted weight yarn for a smaller doll. My favorite medium yarns for amigurumi include Brava WorstedCaron Simply Soft, and Lion Brand Heartland.


Uses 

  • Huggable plush for children to play with
  • Selling at craft fairs, markets, or high-end boutiques
  • Christmas holiday gift 
  • Christmas stocking stuffer
  • An "elf on the shelf" crochet substitute!
