Monster Doll Crochet Pattern – Franky

Franky is a small sage-green monster sitting quietly with his hands at his sides. He has a flat charcoal crown of hair, one corkscrew curl standing up off the top of his head, and a little grey bolt on each side of his neck. Three tiny silver-grey sutures sit on each side of his forehead, there's a soft pink oval of blush under each eye, and his mouth is a shallow smile with one end hooked upward. 💗

If you've been nervous about doll patterns, this one keeps things gentle. It's written as beginner-friendly and only asks for single crochet, increases, decreases, a magic ring, one horizontal colour change and flat-seam sewing — no shaping seams anywhere.

Head and body are worked separately, both top-down in continuous spiral rounds, so you're never juggling more than one shape at a time. The arms, legs, neck bolts and hair curl are small quick pieces, which leaves eight flat seams to sew — all of them straightforward, with assembly given in order.

Your download comes in English, in US crochet terms, with the full materials list, gauge, stitch counts on every round, troubleshooting notes and finishing details. Franky sits 20 cm / 7.9 in tall, or 23 cm / 9 in counting that curl.

Take it one round at a time — we've written every step to keep you company. ✨
