With the doll face sitting there, staring at me, it was time to make a body.
The pattern that I based the head on also had directions for a body but with the google translation, I decided not to use it.

Instead, I went back to the pattern that I used for my Amigurumi Moose and edited that to fit the head that I finished.

This pattern starts off by creating the two legs and then bringing them together for the body.

Before I started, however, I had to make some decisions:

What are the legs going to look like?

I opted for socks and legs and underwear, once I joined the legs together.
In hindsight, instead of just underwear, I wish I had made a one piece underwear/undershirt. Next time.

in colour of foot/boot/sock

Round 1: Create a magic circle with 6 SC

Round 2: SC INC in each st (12)

Round 3: SC in the first st, SC INC in the next, rep around (18)

Round 4: SC in the first 2 sts, SC INC in the next, rep around (24)

Round 5: SC in the first 3 sts, SC INC in the next, rep around (30)

Round 6: SC in the back loops only (30) < bottom of foot/shoe
NOTE: for the foot you wouldn't need to do the back loops only. Feet don't have a ridge!

Rounds 7: SC around (30) (NOTE: for a shoe, I would do 2 rows of this; but I was doing a foot/sock)

Round 8: SC in the first 9 sts, DEC, DEC, DEC, DEC, DEC, DEC, [that was 6 decreases] SC in the last 9 sts (24)

Round 9: SC in the first 6 sts,  DEC, DEC, DEC, DEC, DEC, DEC, [that was 6 decreases] SC in the last 6 sts (18)

> 14 rows of 18 stitches (in colour of boot/sock)... 

STUFF FOOT & bottom of leg 

Next row: (RUFFLE ON SOCK) turn work around (for me: working from outside the leg, rather than the inside)  and do a row of CRAB STITCH in FLO. 

Also: you may not want a ruffle, so just a SC round the edge would work or skip the edging all together

> Next row: switching to the colour of the leg or pant and work in BLO for the next row

> 22 rows of 18 stitches for the leg / pantleg 

Next row: can be a change of colour to that of underwear... 

> working in FLO, sc around 

> Next row: in BLO, sc around 

That's 2 rows of the underwear. 

This is the end of the 1st leg being made. 

Tie off.

Finish stuffing the leg. 

SECOND LEG: 

repeat but do not tie off at the end. 

> (Crochet a few stitches around to the side, to line last stitches up so feet are facing the same direction when crocheted together) (9 stitches) 

> chain 3 and then SC into the other leg; (this is the crotch area)
crochet all around the legs,  back to the beginning of the chain  ... the legs are now joined and the body has begun

> 6 rows around

> change to skin colour and sc BLO around   

> 9 rows 

> next:  SC in the first 5 sts,  DEC in the next rep around (36)

> SC in the first 4 sts,  DEC in the next, rep around (30)

> SC around (30)

> sc in 3, dec. around 

> sc in 2, dec... around

> sc in 1, dec.. around

> 5 rows around (This is the neck) 

Stuff the body 

Now... from past experience, I know that if you have created a large head then it really needs to be secure on the body or it will wobble. I didn't want wobble. 

So.... I purchased some bendy hair curlers and inserted one into the neck for stability. The bonus was that I can tilt the head. That's fun! 

Next: arms. 
Again, I adapted the MOOSE pattern to make a doll arm. (Basically, I wanted thumbs)
