trying to balance him.

Row 18: Do sc between the rows 17 and 16 and then another sc between the rows 16 and 15. The next are the left
stitches from the row 14. Do sc, sc2tog and sc. Again do sc between the rows 2 times. Next you have the 5 stitches
from the row 17. Do sc in the back loop of each of them. (12)
Next youre going to crochet the foot shut, so finish the stuffing during this part (legs should be stuffed quite firmly so
that the character can stand with them). Flatten the foot so that there are 5 st on the instep and 5 st on the sole. Hook
through the next st and the one opposite it (see the pictures below). Do sc. Do sc also in the other 4 pairs crocheting
the foot shut. Finish off and weave in the end. Sew the legs onto the body.

Now, before doing the collar or the sleeves, use the coat to check the right places for the arms. Sew the arms onto
those spots.
Collar
dark grey yarn
Start working from the right bottom corner. On the right and left edges work the stitches between every row. For the
sake of making the pattern easier to write and read, I call those spots between rows also stitches. There are 25 of
these stitches on the right and left edges, the first one being between rows 1 and 2, the last one between rows 25
and 26
yoh, pull through the st, yoh, pull through the loop, sc in the same st, sc in the next 11 st, hdc in the next 5 st, dc in the
next 3 st, tr in the next st, ch 3, ss in the next 2 st, ch 3, tr in the next st, 2 dc in the next st
10

You are now at the right upper corner. Do dc in all 14 st on the upper edge.
Start doing the left edge by working the stitches between the rows again (making the first ones between rows 25 and
26).
2 dc in the next st, tr in the next st, ch 3, ss in the next 2 st, ch 3, tr in the next st, dc in the next 3 st, hdc in the next 5
st, sc in the next 12 st
Finish off and weave in the tails.

Sew the belt on the back side of the coat, just above the creases. Sew a few stitches with the black yarn to do the
buttons. Of course you can also use actual buttons for this.

Sew a couple stitches with red thread on the collar to mark the buttonhole. The ends can be hidden on the backside of
the collar.
Hair
(curly) dark brown yarn
This is how I tend to do hair for my amigurumis. You can try my way or some other, some pretty good tutorials can be
found by googling. Use whatever method suits you best.

These pictures are just to show the way I sew a row of hair. I usually dont start in the middle but by doing the hairline
on the forehead first and then moving row by row to the back of the head. This is a little more difficult with the curly
yarn but be patient and the result will be worth it :)
Cut a long length of yarn. Thread it into a needle.
Make sure both ends are inside the loop and then tighten.
Time to make the next one in the next stitch.
15
(c) Vilonal
Keep the loop (the one around the finger in the picture above) quite long, at least longer than you think the
characters hair is. They dont all have to be exactly the same length as you are going to cut them anyway. Its better
to make the hair too long than too short, you can always cut it afterwards.
Tighten again.

Do the same to the next stitches too. The row looks then something like this:
Finally
Cut a piece of blue fabric for the scarf and put it around Sherlocks neck. Put the coat on him and youre ready!
I hope you found my pattern useful and understandable. If youve got any questions feel free to message me (on
Ravelry, Tumblr or Deviantart). Feedback is always welcome and Id also be really happy to see your Sherlock :)
