Wooden Doll Pinocchio, PDF
Amigurumi Crochet pattern wooden doll inspired by the story of Pinocchio
Pinocchio
On my bookcase are two of these wooden dolls. Unfortunately, the nose of one of the two lies behind the bookcase, killed in action during dusting or lost during a lie....
My wooden doll has movable arms and legs, just like the wooden puppet, invented by the Italian writer Carlo Collodi in 1883 (Le avventure di Pinocchio). My inspiration comes from an illustration by Enrico Mazzanti from 1883. Now not made from a piece of pine tree, but completely crocheted. Maybe one day he will be a real boy again....
This decorative Wooden doll Pino is also very nice if you crochet it in other colours!
