How to Crochet a Chibi Luffy Doll | Amigurumi Tutorial | One Piece

[Music]

hey guys welcome back to my Channel

today I have a new video for you and

this time it is a doll of Luffy and I'm

so happy with how he came out it took me

so long guys to get this video oh my

gosh I hope that it's easy to follow I

feel like it's maybe not beginner

friendly but maybe more intermediate

this is my longest tutorial yet so it

will will be broken up into Parts I know

that's kind of a bummer but it's just

way too long but yeah I hope you guys

enjoyed the video and let's just not

waste any more time and jump right into

it for this project you will need

scissors a needle a 1.4 mm hook a 3 mm

hook and a 3.5 mm hook you'll also need

10 mm eyes a fine tip Sharpie stuffing

and a dowel for yarn you will need a

medium weight yellow dark brown Peach

and light brown a lightweight white tan

and black and a sock weight red all of

the Yarns I used will be down in the

description

below so beginning with our skin tone

yarn and 3.5 mm hook we're going to

begin with the magic circle and if you

don't know how to do that I have a video

right here that explains how to do

it we're going to secure our circle with

a chain and then in the circle we are

going to make six single

[Music]

crochets we're then going to close our

Circle

up and then we're going to begin our

very first row so for Row one we're

going to do an increase in each Stitch

around bringing our total Stitch count

from 6 to 12 if you don't know how to do

an increase you're just going to put two

single crochets per Stitch

for Rows 2 through 11 we are just going

to be putting a single crochet in each

Stitch around keeping our Stitch count

at 12 when you're done with this row

though come back because I have

something I need to say before you go on

with the rest of the

pattern so typically when we're making

stuffies and stuff like that we tend to

push the inside to the inside so that

it's facing out like

this that's how we usually do it but for

this part of the pattern it's very

important now we're doing it the

opposite and working from the inside out

so this string here should be facing out

the entire time we're making our tube

with that out of the way I'll meet you

back for row

12 so you should now have something that

looks like this and for the now head

part of the pattern we're going to swap

out hook sizes so we're going to go from

a 3.5 and now we're going to size down

to a 3 mm

hook so for row 12 we are going to start

by making a single crochet into the

first

Stitch and then in the second Stitch

we're going to make our increase we'll

be repeating the sequence all the way

around bringing our Stitch count from 12

to

18 for row 13 we're going to be making a

single crochet into the first two

stitches and then an increase into the

third and we're going to repeat this

sequence all the way around bringing our

total to 24

stitches for row 14 we're going to be

making a single crochet into the first

three

stitches and then an increase into the

fourth we're going to repeat the

sequence all the way around bringing our

total to 30

stitches for row 15 we're going to be

making a single crochet into the first

four

stitches and then an increase into the

fifth we're going to repeat the sequence

all the way around for a total of 36

stitches for row 16 we're going to be

making a single crochet into the first

five stitches and then an increase into

the sixth we're going to repeat the

sequence all the way around for a total

of 42

stitches okay so this is what you should

have so far um so we are going to start

you know working from the right side out

which is why we had the tube inside out

and we're just going to start building

up over this Center piece right here

so for the next 11 rows we're going to

be putting a single crochet in each

Stitch around and when you get to row 22

I would like you to leave a marker in

that row and I will meet you back when

those rows are done all right so I just

finished row 27 and this is what you

should have um we're at the point now

where we're going to start decreasing

the head but before we do that we're

going to insert our eyes these are 10 mm

and plain black um we're going to be

inserting them in row 22 which I told

you to Mark out my marker was you know

in the back but I moved it to the front

so that it would make sense for the face

to be there um so yeah you just follow

the line and move your marker over there

and we're just going to start inserting

our eye in that

marker just like this and then we are

going to place our second eye um six

stitches apart from the

first and it's looking so cute already

look at that

adorable so jumping right back into the

pattern we currently have 42 stitches

and we're going to start our first

decrease round so we're going to

decrease the 36 stitches so to do that

we are going to put a single crochet

into the first five stitches and then

we're going to make a

decrease now when it comes to a decrease

you could do it one of two ways um for

the first one you can do your

run-of-the-mill decrease where you

insert your hook and into the next

Stitch pull through insert your hook

into the next Stitch after that and pull

through and then pull through all three

Loops that's perfectly fine but when I'm

making dolls I like to use what's called

an invisible decrease so when doing

invisible decrease you're going to

locate the front Loops of the next two

stitches you're going to insert your

hook into the front Loop of both

stitches see that and then we're going

to yarn over and pull through both of

those front Loops Le two loops on our

hook and then we're going to yarn over

and pull through those next two Loops so

to show you again we're going to do our

five single crochets and then once again

we're going to locate the two front

Loops of the next two stitches and put

our hook through them then we're going

to yarn over and pull through those

loops and then yarn over and pull

through the next two loops and that's

how you do it so you're just going to

repeat that all the way around and I'll

meet you back for the next

row for row 20 9 we're going to make a

single crochet into the first four

stitches and then you're going to make a

decrease and you're going to keep

repeating that all the way around for a

total of 30 stitches for row 30 we will

be putting a single crochet into the

first three stitches and then putting in

a decrease and we're going to repeat

this all the way around for a total of

24

stitches for row 31 we're going to make

a single crochet into the first two

stitches and then we're going to make a

DE decrease and we're going to repeat

this all the way around for a total of

18

stitches before we finish closing up the

head we're going to now take this time

to stuff our head pretty firmly um you

want to make sure it's filled out very

nicely and you get around that whole

middle piece okay so we're going to

finish up our last few rows here and I'm

going to keep stuffing as I go um so for

row 32 we're going to make a single

crochet into the first Stitch and then

you're going to make a decrease right

after that we're going to repeat this

process all the way around for total of

12

stitches and for this last row we're

going to make six decreases all the way

around making a total of six stitches

we're going to go into the very first

Stitch and make a slip stitch and then

we're going to fasten off a long tail

for

[Music]

sewing we're now going to thread our

needle and finish sewing up the top of

the head to finalize it finish by taking

your tail and thread it through the head

out to the side and then cutting off the

majority of that tail and then stuffing

it into the head with the back of your

needle now all that's left is to add the

ears to make the ears we're going to

start with our skin color yarn and our 3

mm hook to begin we're going to start

with a magic

circle then we're going to chain one to

secure it and in the circle we are going

to make five single crochets

we're then going to pull our Circle

closed and then we're going to make a

chain and fasten off by pulling all the

way

through you're going to make two and

then I will show you where to place the

ears okay so now we're going to grab our

head and I like my ears to be even with

the

eye and also five visible stitches back

so 1 2 3 4 5 we want to put our ear

about here and we're going to do the

same on the other side

all right this is what your head should

look like with the ears on now let's go

ahead and begin the

body to make the body we're going to

grab our skin color yarn and a 3 mm hook

and we're going to begin with a magic

circle chain one to secure it and then

we're going to insert six single

crochets into the

circle pull the circle closed and then

for this next row we are just going to

put an increase into each Stitch around

bringing our total to

12 then for Rows 3 through 8 we just

going to be making a single crochet into

each Stitch

around and unlike the head we are going

to be facing the tail of the magic

circle on the inside and having the tube

right side

[Music]

out all right so with those six rows

done we're now going to start the next

row and we're going to begin by making a

single crochet into the first Stitch and

then an increase into the second

and we're going to repeat this all the

way around for a total of 18

stitches 4 row 10 put a single crochet

into the first eight stitches and then

an increase into the ninth you're going

to repeat this one more time for a total

of 20

stitches for rows 11 through 13 we are

just going to be making a single crochet

into each Stitch

around okay so I'm on the last Stitch of

the 13th row and I'm actually going to

make my color change now

so I'm going to grab my blue yarn for my

pants and in the last Stitch I'm going

to insert my

hook pull through with the skin color

yarn and I'm going to leave those two

loops on my hook and then grab my blue

yarn and then pull through with the blue

yarn so for this next row we will be

making a single crochet in each Stitch

around but we will be doing it in the

back Loop

[Music]

only all right so for rows 15 through 17

we are just going to be making a single

crochet into each Stitch around

okay so before we move on let's take

this time to put the body into the

head so we're going to take

our stuffing stuffer thing and just push

into the head like this and it should

fit really tight I wanted it to be put

together before I start decreasing and

finishing up the

body so for 18 we're going to be putting

a single crochet into the first eight

stitches and then we're we're going to

make a

decrease we're going to repeat this one

more time bringing our total Stitch

count to

18 for the next row we're going to be

putting a single crochet into the first

Stitch and then we're going to make a

decrease we're going to repeat that all

the way around for a total of 12

stitches and then for this last row we

just going to make a decrease all the

way around for a total of six

stitches we're now going to finish off

the body with a slip

stitch and then we're going to cut off a

long tail for sewing and and pull all

the way through before we start sewing

we're just going to take some time to

start stuffing the

body okay so to close up the body we're

going to start by threading our

needle and then we're going to enter

into the next Stitch through the front

Loop and then we'll pull through and

then we're going to come out the front

Loop of the Stitch next to

that we're just going to repeat this all

the way around until it's fully closed

up then you're going to take your needle

through the center of the bottom and

come out the side of the body and then

you're going to push the excess yarn

into the

doll okay so we are now going to make

the sash part of the outfit so we're

going to take our 3mm hook and a yellow

yarn and we're going to start by making

a slip stitch and chaining

20 now we're going to go to the very

first chain and we're going to insert

our

hook and we're going to connect it with

the slip

stitch we're then going to chain

one and we're going to go into the same

chain we made a slip stitch and make a

single

crochet we're then going to make a

single crochet into each chain around

giving us 20

stitches for this next row we're going

to be working in the round so I'm going

to put my hook into the first Stitch but

for this row we're going to be working

in the back Loop only so now I'm just

going to make a single crochet in that

first Stitch and I'm going to be making

a single crochet in each Stitch around

in the back Loop only and I'll meet you

back when that's

done so for the next part of our sash we

are going to start by chaining

[Music]

eight then we're going to turn our work

and put a single crochet into each chain

across giving us seven

stitches you're now going to go into the

same Stitch that we started our chain

from and make a slip stitch turn your

work and in the back Loop only of the

first five stitches we're going to be

making a single

[Music]

crochet in the last stitch in the back

Loop only we're going to finish off with

a slip

stitch and then we're going to cut off a

long tail for sewing and pull all the

way through so this is what your P

should look like and to finish the look

we're going to push down on this piece

here onto the inside so now it gives the

illusion that it's tied we're then going

to put it on our little doll here and

position it to our

liking so I threaded my needle and what

we're going to do now is move our yarn

tail up this side piece of the sash

we're going to just weave It Up The

Backs side just so that we can move the

yarn tail to where we need it to be to

start sewing so I'm just going to go up

the back side and just pick up

Loops I'm not doing anything in

particular except for removing the yarn

so now our yarn tail should be on the

inside of the piece going around the

waist so for this next part we're going

to take off the sash because we actually

need it to be on the outside so we're

just going to stick our needle through

the absolute center of the waist piece

and now our sewing yarn is where it

needs to be so we're just going to slip

this back on our doll and to begin we're

going to Loop under with our uh needle

under one of these front Loops that are

sticking out above the

pants and we're going to pull

[Music]

through and then we're going to go into

the loop right next to it as well as

into the center of the waist

piece and then we're going to enter

through the center of the waist piece

and then hook up the next Stitch around

the waist and we're just going to

continue this mattress stitch going all

the way around and I'll meet you back

when that's done all right so once we've

made it back back to the beginning we

are just going to stick our needle

through the very center of the doll and

coming out through the

back then going to cut a large piece of

the excess and we're just going to stuff

the rest of the yarn into the

body to begin the arms take your skin

color yarn and your 3mm hook and we're

going to begin with a magic circle

you're going to chain one to secure it

and then we're going to insert eight

single crochets into the circle

we're now going to pull our Circle

closed and for the next eight rows we

are just going to put a single crochet

into each Stitch around so I will meet

you back when that's done all right so

with those eight rows now done we are

going to fasten off doing a slip stitch

into the very next

Stitch and we're going to cut off a good

size tail for sewing and pull all the

way through we're now going to take our

polyfill and we're going to stuff our

arm pretty firmly you don't want to over

stuff but a good amount we're now going

to thread our needle and we're going to

take our arm and fold it in half like

this and we're just going to go back and

forth with our needle to sew up the top

of the

[Music]

arm and now your arm is complete and of

course you're going to want to make two

of them so now let's move on to the

legs to begin the legs we're going to

start with a magic circle

then we're going to chain one to secure

it and we're going to start by inserting

10 Single crochets into the

circle we're now going to pull our

Circle

closed and we're going to begin the next

row by doing five extended half double

crochets and to make an extended half

double crochet you're going to begin by

yarning over and then you're going to

insert your hook into the first Stitch

then you're going to yarn over and P

pull through that

Stitch and then you're going to yarn

over again and pull through one

Loop and then you're going to yarn over

one more time and pull through all three

loops and we're going to repeat this

four more

times and now we're just going to do a

single crochet into the next five

[Music]

stitches all right and for this next we

are just going to put a single crochet

into each Stitch around for a total of

10

stitches all right so we're going to

begin row four by doing two

decreases once again using the invisible

decrease

method then we're just going to put a

single crochet into the remaining six

stitches for a total of

eight for these next two rows we just

going to put a single crochet into each

Stitch around

round all right guys for ow seven we're

just going to make a single crochet into

each Stitch around but we are going to

be doing it in the back Loop

[Music]

only we're now going to go into the next

Stitch here to make a slip

stitch and then we are going to cut off

a short tail and pull all the way

through we're going to take some time

now to just stuff our leg we're going to

want to do it firmly but not over stuff

it and this is what we should have so

far for this next part we're going to

grab our leg and we are going to

identify the front Loop that's directly

underneath the slip stitch we just made

with our skin color yarn we're going to

put our hook underneath that front Loop

and then we are going to grab our

lightweight white yarn going to make a

quick slip knot with

it and then attach it to our hook and

then we are going to make a slip stitch

with the white yarn

[Music]

so now we're connected and we're going

to go into the very next front Loop and

we're going to make a puff stitch so to

do that we're going to yarn

over then we are going to go into that

next front

loop we're going to yarn over and then

pull through that

Loop then we're going to yarn over again

go through the same

Loop then we're going to yarn over and

pull through that Loop and then we're

going to yarn over go through the same

loop again

[Music]

yarn over pull through that Loop then

yarn over and pull through all of those

white loops and that's your first puff

stitch so we are going to do that in

every front loop around the leg for a

total of eight puff

stitches so this is how it should look

when your puff stitch row is done and

for this next row we're just going to do

a single crochet into each Stitch

around so I'm about to make my last

single crochet of the row but for this

one I'm going to go under my Stitch and

pull through once leaving two loops on

my hook and I'm now going to grab my

blue yarn from before and finish off the

Stitch with this color I'm now going to

cut my white yarn with a short tail and

I'm going to be working with the blue

yarn from here on out for row 10 we're

just going to make a single crochet into

each Stitch around but we're going to be

doing it in the back Loop

only in the next two rows we're just

going to make a single crochet in each

Stitch around for a total of eight

stitches

[Music]

we're now going to take some time to

stuff our leg the rest of the way before

we close it

up we're now going to fold the leg in

half so that the toes face forward and

we're going to put our hook through both

sides of the leg and make single

crochets all the way

across we're then going to finish off

with a slip stitch

and then we're going to cut off a long

tail for sewing and pull all the way

through and of course make two

legs so now that the limbs are made we

can now sew them on I'm actually going

to do it off camera but um I will show

you where I'm going to do it so the arms

I'm going to put where basically the

body meets to the

head and for the legs I want him sitting

down so I'm placing the legs in the

front

center and I think I want them kind of

splited out like this

and that's kind of the vision going into

this so I'm just going to go ahead and

sew these now and I'll meet you back

when that's

done all right to make the sandals we're

going to take our lightweight tan yarn

and our 3 mm hook and we're going to

begin with a magic

circle chain one to secure it now we're

going to insert five single crochets

into the magic

circle pull the circle closed and for

for this next row we are going to put an

increase into each Stitch around

bringing our Stitch count to

10 for Row three we are going to put a

single crochet into the first Stitch and

then an increase into the second we're

going to repeat this sequence all the

way around bringing our Stitch count to

15 once you have that make a slip stitch

into the very first Stitch and then cut

off a tail for

sewing for this next part we're going to

be making the straps and you're just

going to want to grab a brown yarn

and next we're going to Mark out where

our straps are going to go so not

counting our slip stitch here we're

going to count backwards four stitches

so one 2 3 and four and we're going to

Mark out that fourth stitch by pulling

up the back loop with our hook we're now

going to count five stitches past that

Loop so one 2 3 four and five we're

going to pull up once again the back

Loop then we're going to count another

four stitches after that and pull up

that back

Loop so we should have something that

looks like this now we're going to grab

our Brown yarn and make a slip knot and

then we're going to attach it to the

first back Loop we made using a slip

stitch we're then going to chain

three and attach it to the next pulled

up back Loop using a slip

stitch and then we're going to chain

three one more time and attach it to the

last pulled up back

loop we're going to cut off a long tail

for sewing and then we're going to pull

all the way

through and this is how your sandal

should look make two of them and then

we're going to sew them on to the bottom

of our doll's feet okay so this is sort

of the idea with the uh sandals we're

going to take the brown yarn and attach

the straps to the top of the foot and

then we're going to take this light

brown yarn tail and attach the soles to

the bottom of the foot

this is a lot of sewing so you could

definitely just hot glue it to the foot

if you need

to all right guys thank you so much for

watching part one next week I will be

posting part two where it'll cover the

hair the Hat the jacket and the details

so I hope you guys stay tuned for that

video and I guess I'll just see you in

the next one bye
