Ron is Harry Potter’s loyal and loveable sidekick, who is a hero in his own right. At only 4.5 inches tall, this free pattern is quick, easy, and so adorable!

Method
Legs
Body
Stuff as you go.
Begin with black.
Stuff legs lightly as you go.
Round 1: 6 SC into a magic circle (6)
Change to dark grey
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. Now we will 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)
Round 8: SC in each stitch around (16)
Change to light grey.
Round 9: SC in each stitch around (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.
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.
Hair cap & Embroidery
Using burnt orange 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 5-8 (4 rounds): SC around (24)
Round 9: SC, HDC, 4 DC, sl st, 4 DC, HDC, 12 SC. Sl st to the first stich of the round.
Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing the hair cap and sewing on sideburns. Pin your hair cap on.
Embroider on the nose one row below the eyes, the mouth about a row below the nose, and the eyebrows. Now embroider on Ron’s ears about three stitches from the eyes and they are made by passing the yarn over two stitches vertically. You may need to adjust the ear placement based on how your hair cap is placed. Sew on the hair cap and make two passes in front of the ears with the hair colour yarn, as short sideburns.
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.
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 Ron Weasley crochet doll in his 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.
