This free step-by-step master class by @kharitoshkiny_kroshki lets you crochet a 19 cm Snow Maiden using semi-cotton YarnArt Jeans in beige, white, and blue, along with plush accents and doll hair wefts for her soft winter hairstyle. If you have been wondering how to crochet an amigurumi doll that looks adorable yet remains easy to follow, this how to crochet amigurumi guide offers a smooth learning flow and a truly Quick to Make Amigurumi experience for intermediate makers.

The pattern uses a 2 mm crochet hook, safety eyes (5–6 mm), fiberfill, stitch markers, pins, scissors, a sewing needle, fluffy yarn, and kanekalon-style doll hair, guiding you from start to finish in a clear, relaxing way. While cotton yarn gives this Snow Maiden crisp stitch definition, she also works beautifully as a soft velvet plushie that becomes much larger and cuddlier, and don’t forget to visit the Kitten Amigurumi Free Pattern for more beginner friendly inspiration.
