How to crochet round eyes?

On the site you can find a video tutorial on eye embroidery, as well as on painting eyes.

In this video we will make completely different eyes, crocheted ones. I designed these eyes for a crocheted doll in the L.O.L style, but they will suit any other play doll for a child.

It is necessary to select the thickness of the yarn and the hook for crocheting the eyes, taking into account the size of the doll’s head.

If this is a large play doll, a rather thick yarn may be needed.

For a small doll with the size of a palm, you can take a thread of the “Iris” type, but for very little ones you will have to try and crochet the eyes with sewing threads or mouline.

In this video, I have a medium version, so I am using Iris. I need 3 colors: black, white and an iris-colored thread.

Both eyes are crocheted in the same way, the eyes become right and left at the sewing stage. The eyes are located on the face symmetrically, with a different inclination.

Don’t forget to add highlights for a natural look, and also make eyelashes. You can simply paint them with black acrylic paint, or you can make voluminous eyelashes.
