"For real life!?" Say hello to this Bluey-Inspired Doll!

Bluey would make a perfect friend for yourself, but she's also sure to brighten someone else's day as a gift. It's a stretch to coin the term Waldorf-style for a tv show character, but this Bluey has been carefully crafted with a simple heirloom design and blank features ready to spark the imagination open the door to creative play. At around 9cm tall (depending on your yarn and gauge), she's the perfect size for sitting in pockets and being held by little hands.

Bluey is made out of cosy 4/DK yarn, but as long as you use a hook size to maintain tight stitches with no gaps that can easily be switched out to a different size -- you'll just end up with a smaller or bigger friend depending on which you use!

This pattern has step by step instructions so you can get your Bluey just right, and includes twenty-three colour photos so you can keep on track. It has been written with advanced beginners-intermediate in mind as there are quite a few colour changes and bits to sew on, but there's nothing like learning as you go if you aren't there yet and just want to jump in!

I can't wait to see your new Bluey friend stitched to life <3

Yarn - The pattern is made for DK weight yarn, but being amigurumi gauge isn't super important and you can easily switch it out for a different weight. Just make sure all the yarn used is the same weight and it should still work. This is a small pattern and you'll have more than enough for multiple Blueys in each colour of yarn.
2.75mm crochet hook to keep the stitches nice and tight. Depending on your yarn you may need to go up or down sizes to match.
Stuffing
Sewing pins to keep things in place as you stitch them together (not absolutely necessary, but can help keep things from sliding around)
Marker to keep track of rounds (I use an extra little piece of yarn)
Yarn needle (or smaller if you prefer to attach pieces with thread), scissors, general etc.
