Vanellope Doll – free crochet pattern

Vanellope Von Schweetz is the co-star of Disney’s 2012 animated feature film Wreck-It Ralph and its 2018 sequel. Vanellope is a very short girl with large brown, and sometimes green eyes and rather large ears. She has cheeks as red as the tip of her nose and long black hair adorned with candies, tied with liquorice to form a long tail. She always wears a light blue hooded sweatshirt and a brown skirt, with black shoes and light blue and white striped socks.

Here is the Vanellope doll, a free pattern found on the internet, its creator being Luisa Maria Arango Perez. I translated and interpreted this pattern in my own way so that it could be understood by as many amigurumi lovers as possible. I hope you like it and find joy when you crochet it! Have a crocheted day!
