I worked with cotton yarn and 2.5 mm crochet hook for the doll and for the cat, so the doll is approximately 24
cm tall. For the dress, I used a smaller hook, but you might want to use a bigger hook, especially if you’re using
a thinner yarn, like I did!

Using contrasting colors, in the front loops on rows R6, R16 and R24 we work clusters (2dc, 2ch, 2dc) in same st,
skip 2st, repeat – it will result 13 clusters on row R6 and R16. We repeat this for 5 rows, on the last row work 7
sc on each 2ch space.
The cat is a free pattern, which you can find here. I wired all the 4 legs, so it can attach to Alexa’s arm.
