Christmas Elf Ragdoll

Pattern info page: https://www.sweetsofties.com/2025/01/christmas-elf-ragdoll.html

The Christmas Elf Ragdoll is a large, 15 inch plush doll that works up rather quickly. This Santa’s helper is low-sew, as the legs, arm, head, and hat are all crocheted in a no sew manner. Only the ears and hair cap require sewing to the head. This elf’s design features defined boots, striped candy cane socks, a festive outfit, and a classic Santa hat. Use super bulky chenille velvet or blanket yarn for a large doll, or use thinner yarns like DK or worsted weight yarn for a smaller doll.

This adorable stuffie is the perfect amigurumi to crochet for craft fairs, markets, or as a holiday gift and stocking stuffer. It is a unisex / gender neutral toy that will appeal to all.

The PDF pattern includes many progress photos as part of a detailed photo tutorial to help guide you through the doll-making process.
