Marley the Mushroom Gatherer

Pattern info page: https://www.sweetsofties.com/2025/02/marley-the-mushroom-gatherer.html

Marley the Mushroom Gatherer is a no-sew amigurumi doll that comes with removable accessories, including a wicker basket, mini mushroom, and pixie bonnet hood. Marley’s design features a beautifully-textured dress skirt, lantern sleeves, and realistic foot shape. Her hair is attached with a quick and easy technique, and does not involve crocheting a hair cap. This play set makes a lovely birthday present or Christmas holiday gift for little girls and young children. It’s also a high-end toy for craft fairs & boutiques. The PDF pattern includes 60+ progress photos as part of a detailed photo tutorial to help guide you through the crochet process.
