After the head is tied, we stuff it and make a tightening in the eye area.
Weighting can be done with a thin thread of flesh-colored. Insert the needle from below into the unwired opening of the head and bring it out in the center (approximately between 16-17 near the crown), then through the row we bring the needle back inside the head, tighten and tie a knot - a “dimple” is formed. Bring the needle out in the place of the second eye (after about 9 loops) and through the row again inward - tightened, tied a knot. Cut off the excess thread, hide the ends of the threads inside the head in the packing.
Insert the plastic eyes. Embroider cilia, eyebrows and mouth.
Pull the hole in the head and remove the tail of the thread.

13 row: 12 sbn for the back wall of the loop
13 - 21 row: 12 sbn, leave a long tail of thread so that you can sew the handle and sew to the body.
Fill the handle with filler. The cam needs to be filled tightly enough, the handle itself can be made softer. Now fold the top of the handle flat and tie the edge.
It remains to tie the ruffle on the sleeve. In the place where they knitted for the back wall of the loop (13 row) on the handle, attach the thread (the color of the blouse) and knit the ruff for the remaining free front walls of the loop: 3 vp, 1 sb. Hide the tail of the thread inside the handle.
Similarly, tie the second handle to the doll.
Legs:
For the legs, you first need to tie the foot in the toe, and then the leg itself.

Now we attach the thread to the foot at the narrowing point and knit 15 loops in a circle around it (the former color is the color of the socks).
Knit the top of the sock:
1 - 6 row: 15 sbn
Change the color of the thread to flesh and then knit the doll's leg.
7 row: 15 sb for the back wall of the loop

20 row: 15 sb for the back wall of the loop
21 row: (4 sb, increase) - 3 times (18)
22-25 row: 18 sb
Fold the top of the legs and tie a flat edge (as at the hands).
Make a quilling (3 vp, 1 sbn) with the color of the socks in the 7th row (where they were knitted for the back wall). Also do quilling in row 20 in the color of trousers.
Shoes:
Tie the sole according to the pattern.
Further:
5 row: 43 sbn behind the back wall of the loop
6-9 row: 43 sbn
10 row: 8 sbn, 2 pst, 8 decrease pst, 2 pst, 15 sbn (35)
11 row: 8 sbn, 12 pst, 15 sbn (35 )
12 row: 8 sbn, 2 pst, 4 decrease pst, 2 pst, 9 sbn, 3 decrease sbn (28)
Put the shoe on the leg, attach the thread on the side. Next, knit 8 vp, join with a connecting column on the other side of the shoe, rotate knitting and knit an 8 pst strap. Fasten the thread and hide the tails. Similarly, tie the second shoe.
Nose:
Knit with flesh-colored yarn.
1 row: 6 sb in the amigurumi ring
2 row: 6 sb.
Leave the tip sufficient for sewing and sew the nose on the face.
Ears:
Knit with flesh-colored yarn. At eye level, back 9 sb, attach. Next 3 c. p. lift, 8 PRS.
Bring the tail of the thread 2 rows above (below) behind the ear, and tail the thread that remained from the attachment of the thread at the beginning of knitting the ear for the third c.p. lift and bring out in the same place where the tail end. Tie the ends into a knot and hide inside the head. repeat for the second ear.
Dress:
For a coquette, dial 26 in. p.
1 row: 1 c. item of rise, 25 sbn
2 row: 6 century item of rise, 5 ss4n, 2 century p., 10 ss4n, 2 in. p., 6 ss4n
3 row: 1 in. n. lifting, 25 sbn
Next, tie the skirt according to the scheme:
For hair, cut a thread of the required length (depending on the desired hair length). Then fasten each thread in a circle around the crown. Move in circular rows from the top of the head to the sides.
To fasten the hair-thread, enter the hook towards the crown, hook the thread folded in half and hook it into the middle. Then grab both ends of the thread and pull through the loop. Tighten.
Now it remains to "assemble" the doll. Put on the dress, sew the head to the body, also arms and legs. Sew hands between 4-5 next to the torso, and legs between 22-23.
Braid the doll’s hair, decorate the dress, shoes with beads or other jewelry.
