Old Gregg Doll Crochet Pattern

Is he half man, half fish or more of a 70 / 30 split? You can practice your watercolours or drink Baileys from a shoe with your very own Old Gregg Doll! This is an Intermediate+ level pattern with lots of different parts and sewing required. Making this doll is a bit of a marathon, but it’s worth it to have a friend who can take you to that cool, new club! The head and body are made in one piece, so there’s no fear of a wobbly neck on this manfish.

This crochet amigurumi pattern is perfect for neurodiverse crafters. The abbreviated instructions are followed by a breakdown in italics making it easier to understand what you need to do in each round. If you’ve had trouble reading patterns in the past, we hope that you’ll give our patterns a try!
