Amigurumi Crochet pattern girl with curls and a sailor dress
Claire, nostalgia through an old photo
A while back I came across a picture of my mother as a little girl. At that time it was all fashion to wear sailor dresses. The girls also had a big bow in their hair. I wanted to make a crocheted version of this. That's how Claire was born, named after my mother Klara. I gave her a bird -on-wheels as a toy. I made the big bow from a ribbon that I used to wear in my hair (I kept it all that time!). But my mother didn't have that many curls, lol.
In short, a super sweet and cute crochet pattern of a girl in a sailor's dress to crochet with her toy bird!
