Small Crochet Dolls with Removable Clothing (Free Patterns)

Dress Up Your Small Crochet Dolls with Interchangeable Outfits

Our Kozu Palm Pals series offers delightful and easy crochet patterns for dress-up dolls. These patterns were actually the first amigurumi designs we crafted for our blog, and they inspired the launch of Chai Coffee Crochet! The idea for these dress-up dolls came about when my nephews wanted smaller siblings for their larger crochet dolls. Thus, I decided to crochet dolls with removable clothes, as who doesn’t love changing doll outfits?

I recall my envy as a child when my sister’s Barbie had an extensive wardrobe with stylish clothes (think 80s fashion, complete with shoulder pads and leg warmers!). During doll playtime, she would only allow me to borrow her clothes if her doll was the star of the show—the smartest, prettiest, and most popular. So, maybe creating my own crochet doll clothes collection was my way of getting back at my sister. Just kidding, of course! 😄

About the Crochet Dress Up Doll Patterns

All the Kozu Palm Pals dress-up dolls are made using the same crochet doll body pattern. As you crochet the doll’s base, the magic begins to unfold, transforming it into a unique character!

One remarkable feature of the Kozu Palm Pals series is that the hair caps are interchangeable for all the amigurumi dolls, not just the dress-up dolls. This customization option allows you to match the doll’s hair to the hairstyle of the child it’s intended for. Additionally, these patterns lend themselves well to creating personalized crochet dolls.

The crochet doll clothes are all removable and can be easily interchanged. To dress the dolls, simply put the clothes on from the legs up (as the doll heads are too large to fit through). It’s worth noting that the clothes are crocheted using the same hook size as the doll bodies. However, yarn sizes and tension may vary, so it’s advisable to try the clothes on your doll as you go to ensure a perfect fit. If the clothes appear too snug or loose, you can adjust the hook size accordingly.

We’re excited to keep adding more dolls with clothes to the Kozu Palm Pals series. Make sure to sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know about the latest crochet dress-up dolls!

Note: The patterns are available for free on our blog. For ad-free, print-friendly PDF patterns, you can purchase them from our Ravelry Store.
