Pajama Baby (Includes 2 Feet Options)

Pattern info page: https://www.sweetsofties.com/2026/09/pajama-baby.html

Pajama Baby is a 2-in-1 crochet doll pattern that is no-sew and quick to work up. It features a cute baby wearing a soft pajama bodysuit (with two variations: barefoot or wearing footed jammies) and beanie hat or hood. The only optional sewing is to sew the hat to the doll. The arms and legs are soft and unstuffed, making it a cuddly snuggler especially if made using plush yarn. Customize it in many ways: use different yarn color combinations, add a rattle or crinkle sheet in the body as a baby toy, embroider facial features like a nose/smile, and add blush to the cheeks.

This doll makes a sweet baby shower gift or gift for an infant or newborn, as long as the eyes are embroidered to avoid choking hazard. The PJ Baby also works well as a birthday gift, Christmas stocking stuffer for kids, and stock for markets/craft fairs.

The PDF pattern includes written instructions, access to a full video tutorial, and 60+ photo references to guide you through the doll-making process.
