Finished Size: about 4" tall.

You Will Need:

  • Worsted weight yarn in 6 colors: skin tone, hair color, 3 colors for clothing (possibly an additional color for the crown if not using gold in the clothing), and 1 for the pouch. (Sample made with Loops & Threads Impeccable in Soft Taupe, Pale Gray, Claret, Gold, Soft Rose, and Loops and Threads Soft Classic in Mushroom)
  • G crochet hook (4/4.25 mm)
  • 2- 6mm safety eyes
  • Stuffing
  • Yarn needle
  • Stitch markers
  • Scissors
  • Optional: if you want to add weighted bases to your figures, you will need some scrap fabric and Poly-Pellets.

Instructions:

Most of the pieces are made beginning with a magic ring. The only exceptions are the crown, the beard, and the sash.

*If you want to add weighted bases to the bottom of your figures, you can cut out a circle of fabric about 3" in diameter, work a running stitch all the way around the outside edge, cinch it to make a little bowl shape, add a little bit of poly-pellets to the circle, then cinch closed. The base of the figure is only about 1.5" in diameter, so it needs to be kept pretty small. If using a weighted base, place it in the bottom of the figure when the pattern says to begin stuffing, then continue with stuffing. This does help keep your figures upright easier but is an optional step.
