Vessel (Sleep Token) Crochet Doll Free Pattern
Hello fellow fiber enthusiasts!
I’m thrilled to share my latest creation with you today – a mysterious little hooded Vessel (Sleep Token) Crochet Doll Free Pattern that has completely stolen my heart! This adorable amigurumi stands about 20cm tall and has such a distinctive personality with its embroidered face and oversized cloak.

Skill Level: Intermediate Beginner (Basic crochet stitches, color changes, embroidery)
Materials:
- Yarn:
- Worsted weight yarn in White
- Worsted weight yarn in Black
- Worsted weight yarn in Dark Gray
- Worsted weight yarn in Light Gray (a shade lighter than Dark Gray)
- Small amount of Red yarn for embroidery
- Small amount of Black yarn for embroidery
- Crochet Hook: 3.75mm (or size appropriate for your yarn to achieve tight stitches for amigurumi)
- Stuffing: Fiberfill or similar stuffing material
- Embroidery Needle: For embroidering the mask details
- Scissors
- Stitch Markers
- Yarn Needle: For sewing parts together and weaving in ends
Gauge: Gauge is not crucial for amigurumi, but aim for tight stitches so stuffing doesn’t show through. If you want to match the approximate size, crocheting a small square of 10×10 single crochet stitches with your chosen yarn and hook should measure around 2.5cm x 2.5cm (1 inch x 1 inch).
