Introduction

Welcome back to another crochet progress vlog! In today's episode, we will be diving into the world of crafting and creating the Hashira Tomioka Goo doll. Throughout this article, I will guide you through each step of the crochet process, providing detailed instructions and tips along the way. So grab your crochet hooks and let's get started!

The Crochet Process

Before we begin, let's gather all the necessary materials and tools for this project. You will need:

• Crochet hooks in various sizes
• Yarn in different colors (white, black, burgundy, green, yellow, etc.)
• Safety eyes
• Yarn needle
• Fabric glue
• Felt-tip needle
• Scissors

Creating the Base Body

The first step in crocheting the Tomioka doll is to create the base body. We will start by crocheting the feet using white yarn, transitioning to black for the legs. Once the legs are complete, we will attach the separately created pants on round 14. Moving on to the top part, we will use a skin color yarn to create the torso. The eyes are a unique feature of this doll, as they are hand-painted using paint markers and a Sharpie. The white yarn is used to represent the iris color, while the cornerless eye technique is perfect for Tomioka's eye shape.

Adding the Details

Now that we have the basic body structure, let's focus on adding the intricate details to bring our Tomioka doll to life. Starting with the belt, we will use white yarn to chain and sew it onto his waist over the pants. To create the belt buckle, we will use silver yarn and attach it to the middle of the belt strap. Moving on to the choker, we will use black yarn to replicate the collar of Tomioka's outfit. Gluing white yarn around the edges of the black part, we will securely attach the choker to the doll's neck. Lastly, we will sew a little slit on the backside to add a small outfit detail.

Making the Outfit

To complete Tomioka's outfit, we will start by crocheting the jacket. Using burgundy yarn, we will create two separate pieces. This is followed by using green and yellow yarn alternately to construct the unique design on the front side of the jacket. Sewing the two pieces together in the middle, we will attach the jacket to the doll. Additionally, we will crochet sleeves in different colors to match each side of the jacket. The arms will be crocheted to transition from skin color to black, matching the doll's uniform.

Crafting the Hair

Tomioka's hair is a defining feature that adds personality to the doll. We will begin by creating a base with eight chains, focusing on the bangs pointing downwards. Adding slight curls on the sides to mimic the reference photo, we will gradually fill in the rest of the head with more eight chains. The backside of the head will feature a bushy, spiky ponytail. Creating three strands and gluing them together, we will attach the ponytail to complete the hair design.

Finishing Touches

With all the major elements completed, it's time to add the finishing touches to our Tomioka doll. Ensure that all parts are securely attached and neatly sewn. Take a step back and evaluate the overall appearance of the doll, making any necessary adjustments to achieve the desired look. Check for any loose ends or loose stitches that need attention.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully crocheted the Hashira Tomioka Goo doll. The process required patience, attention to detail, and a creative spirit. I hope you have enjoyed this crochet journey and that your doll brings joy and pride upon completion. Remember to experiment and personalize your doll by adding your own unique touches.
