Stuff tightly after completing the first 14 rows.

2 Row: 6 inc (12)
3 Row: (sc, inc)*6 (18)
4 Row: 18 sc in the back loops
5-7 Row: 18 sc
8 Row: 6 sc, 3 dec, 6 sc (15)
9-10 Row: 15 sc

12 Row: in the back loops of the 10th row, work 15 sc.
13-21 Row: 15 sc (9 rows)
22 Row: Work 11 sc (up to the inner thigh), insert a marker into the 12th stitch – this is where we’ll join the legs. Cut the yarn.
Right leg, using the boot color:
1 Row: 6 sc in magic ring (6)
2 Row: (sc, inc)*3 (9)
3-4 Row: 9 sc (2 rows)
Switch to the tights color.
5 Row: 9 sl st in the back loops
6 Row: 9 sc in the back loops
7-17 Row: 9 sc (11 rows)
18 Row: Fold in half, work 4 sc through both sides
Leave a long tail. Attach to the body.
ATTACHING HAIR:
Since the doll will wear a hat, attach the hair in 3 rows not too low (just above the eyes) and at the crown, making it easier to attach the hat later.
HAT: Knit with two strands of yarn on size 3.5 needles.
Gauge: 2 stitches per 1 cm. Keep in mind that the pattern stretches well. The doll’s head is 18 cm in circumference.
Cast on 36 stitches + 2 edge stitches = 38
1-15 Row: Knit in a 1×1 rib pattern (knit 1, purl 1)
16 Row: purl, (dec, knit)* to the end of the row, purl
17 Row: purl
18 Row: purl, dec (knit 2 together)* to the end of the row, purl
Cut the yarn, leave a long tail. Thread it through a needle and pass it through all the stitches on the needle. Pull tight and sew it up. Put it on the doll’s head, attaching it not at the very edge of the hat, but about 1 cm below the edge to prevent the hair from splitting into sections.
COWL:
Cast on 6 stitches on size 2.5 needles and knit in garter stitch (knit every row) until the desired length to fit snugly around the doll’s torso. Bind off the stitches. Attach pompoms and buttons to the cowl (you can also decorate it with a large flower). Put it on the doll and sew it in place.
SKIRT:
Cut tulle into strips about 3-4 cm wide and 15 cm long (make sure the fabric stretches in width, not length). Take the yarn you used for the sweater and tie the tulle strips to it with simple single knots. The more strips you attach, the fuller the skirt will be. Sew the skirt to the body.
Your doll is now ready.
