Method

Body

Legs

Stuff as you go.

Begin with black.

Stuff legs lightly as you go.

Round 1: SC 6 into a magic circle (6)

Change to skin colour.

Round 2: SC around in BLO (6)

Round 3-6 (4 rounds): SC around (6).

Fasten off. Make sure that you’ve pulled the magic circle tight so that stuffing doesn’t escape from it. Repeat rounds 1-6 for the second leg but don’t fasten off.

Body

Stuff as you go. We will now be begin joining the legs.

Round 7: Chain 2 and SC in the next unworked stitch of the first leg. Place a stitch marker in this stitch to mark the start of your round. SC in the remaining 5 stitches of the first leg until you reach the chain, SC in each of the 2 chains, SC in the 6 stitches of the next leg, and SC on the other side of each of the two chains until you reach your stitch marker. (16)

Change to dark grey.

Round 8: SC in each stitch around (16)

Change to light grey.

Round 9: SC in each stitch in BLO (16)

Round 10: SC in each stitch in BLO (16)

Round 11-12 (2 rounds): SC in each stitch around (16)

Round 13: (2 SC, INV DEC) four times (12)

Round 14: (2 SC, INV DEC) three times (9)

Change to skin colour.

Round 15: (SC, INV DEC) three times (6)

Head

Round 16: INC in each stitch around (12)

Round 17: (SC, INC) six times (18)

Round 18: (2 SC, INC) six times (24)

Round 19-23 (5 rounds): SC in each stitch around (24)

If you’re using safety eyes, place them between Rounds 20 and 21, four stitches apart. Once you are satisfied with the placement of the eyes, remove the eyes and embroider eyelashes. Reinsert the eyes and put the washer firmly on the back.

Ensure that you have stuffed the body well, especially the neck. I use the back of a scissor to get the stuffing in but you can use anything small enough to really push the stuffing in to ensure that the neck is firm! Continue stuffing the head.

Round 24: (2 SC, INV DEC) six times (18)

Round 25: (SC, INV DEC) six times (12)

Ensure that you have stuffed the head well.

Round 26: INV DEC six times (6)

Fasten off and leave a long tail to embroider the nose and ears. Insert needle in front loop of each stitch and pull tight to close.

Arms (make 2)

The arms are made of small tubes, which can sometimes be tricky to make. Planet June has a great tutorial on making these thin tubes here.

Do not stuff

Begin with skin colour.

Round 1: 4 SC into a magic circle (4)

Change to light grey.

Round 2-6 (5 rounds):  SC around (4)

Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Sew onto the body between Round 13 and 14.

Skirt

Attach yarn in front loops from Round 8

Turn your doll upside down and attach dark grey yarn to the back of the doll, in the unworked front loops from Round 8.

Round 1: (3 SC, INC) four times (20)

Round 2-4 (3 rounds): SC in each stitch around (20)

Fasten off and weave in the ends.

Hair cap & Embroidery

Using brown yarn.

Round 1: 6 SC into a magic circle

Round 2: INC in each stitch around (12)

Round 3: (SC, INC) six times (18)

Round 4: (2 SC, INC) six times (24)

Round 5-7 (3 rounds): SC around (24)

Round 8: The hair cap instructions for this round can be confusing so I’m going to break them down into sections. Please note that the next section of bullet points are all for Round 8 of the hair cap:

  • First we will begin by making five bangs in the front of the head: (Chain 4, starting from the second chain on the hook, 3 sl st back down the chain, slip stitch in the next SC in the hair cap) five times
  •  3 SC
  •  Now we will make thirteen long strands of hair: *Chain 15, starting from the second chain from the hook, (4 SC, INC) twice, 4 SC. You should now be at the bottom of your chain.  Sl st into the next SC of the hair cap* repeat the part between ** for a total of 13 times
  • 3 SC.
  • Slip stitch into the first stitch of this Round.

Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing.

Embroider on the nose one row below the eyes and the mouth about a row below the nose. Sew on the hair cap. Put one stitch into each of the bangs while you are sewing to keep them in place. 

Robe

Note: The body of the robe is worked in rows and the turning chains at the start of each row do not count as stitches.

cloak and scarf

Using black yarn.

Row 1: Chain 17. Starting from the second chain from the hook, 16 SC. Turn. (16)

Row 2: Chain 1. 2 SC, 3 SC in the next stitch, 2 SC, 3 SC in the next stitch, 4 SC, 3 SC in the next stitch, 2 SC, 3 SC in the next stitch, 2 SC. Turn. (24)

Row 3: Chain 1. 5 SC, Chain 4, Skip the next 4 stitches, 6 SC, Chain 4, Skip the next 4 stitches, 5 SC.

Row 4: Chain 2. 5 HDC; 4 HDC (one in each of the 4 chains from the previous row); 6 HDC, 4 HDC (one in each of the 4 chains from the previous row); 5 HDC. Turn. (24)

Row 5-8 (4 rows): Chain 2. HDC in each stitch (24)

Fasten off. Now we will make the sleeves.

Sleeves

Attach black yarn to the first armhole of your robe (in the chain space from Row 3).

The sleeves are worked in joined rounds.

Round 1: 10 SC around the armhole, evenly spaced. Sl st to the first SC. (10)

Round 2-3: Chain 1. SC in each stitch around (10). Sl st to the first SC of the round

Fasten off. Now repeat for the second sleeve. Weave in the ends.

Gryffindor Scarf

The scarf is worked in rows and the turning chains at the start of each row do not count as stitches.

Note: When making the scarf, I just pull the new colour up when making a colour change because it would be too many ends to weave in! When putting the scarf on your doll, you can place it so that colour changes are on the back and cannot be seen.

Begin with red yarn.

Row 1: Chain 5. Starting from the third chain from the hook, 3 HDC. Turn.

Row 2: Chain 2, 3 HDC. Turn.

Change to yellow

Row 3-4: Chain 2, 3 HDC. Turn.

Change to red

Row 5-6: Chain 2, 3 HDC. Turn.

Change to yellow

Repeat Rows 3-6 until the scarf is the length that you want. I did a total of 42 rows (or 21 blocks of colour, beginning and ending with red). Fasten off and weave in your ends.

Now dress your Hermione Granger crochet doll in its robe and scarf. If you like, sew the scarf around the neck so that it stays in place. Or, if you would prefer it removable, you could sew a button on the back to hold it in place.
