Special stitches:

Ltr: Linked Treble Crochet

Hooks used: Size I (5.5mm, or UK size 5), Size H (5mm, or UK size 6)

Yarn used: Worsted weight in Burgundy, Green, Yellow, Light Brown, Dark

Brown, White, a small amount of turquoise, and a Tan or Peach skin tone.

The head and body are both spheres. I used Ms Premise-Conclusion's 20 row
ideal sphere pattern for this, which can be found here:
http://mspremiseconclusion.wordpress.com/2010/03/14/the-ideal-crochet-sphere/
You can use any similarly-sized sphere pattern though.

The head is made in a skin color, and the body is made in a green color. If you
want to use yarn for Maze's hair, cut several pieces of white yarn about 2 inches
long. Double them over and (using one at a time) pull the loop that they make

2
through the top of the head. In an adjacent space, pull the strands up and
through the loop to secure the strands in place. Don’t worry about missing a bit
in the back. The strands will be combed back and hide any bare spots.
Once you have the head sufficiently covered, take a wire brush (I used a
heavy duty steel one, but a cat brush should work just as well) and brush the
yarn strands until they have separated into wispy hair-like strands. After they
have sufficiently separated, you can take a hair straightener to smooth out the
yarn and make it softer and more hair-like.

Sew two black buttons on for the eyes. You can either use felt or embroidery for
the will lines.

For embroidery, using turquoise and I hook, make a magic ring with 3 sc. Inc in
the first 2 stitches and sl st in last st to fasten off. Sew this to the middle of the
forehead. Next, make 2 chains of 6, and one chain of 10. Sew the chains of 6 to
the cheek areas in a right angle shape.
Now we can start working on the rest of the doll.

leaving a tail about twice as long as the chain. Sew onto leg straight down
vertically, ending a little before the toe.
Make four chains of 10, 2 for each boot. Tie one around each "ankle", and
another one a little from the top of the leg.

on each boot.

Coat:

The coat is made up of 3 pieces: The main part (or "body”) of the coat, the collar,
and the mantle. These are all worked in linked treble crochet stitches and edged
with yellow yarn.
To do linked treble crochet, insert your hook into the second chain, yarn over,
and pull through. Insert your hook into the next chain, y/o, pull through, insert

6
hook into next chain, y/o, pull through. You should have 4 loops on the hook.
Y/o, pull through 2, y/o,pull through 2, y/o, pull through 2. For the next stitches,
you'll insert the hook through each of the horizontal bars, pulling up a loop from
both of them, and then pulling up a loop from the next stitch. Then y/o and pull
through the stitches in groups of two.
To increase, repeat this process, but instead of going into the next chain after
inserting into the vertical bars, go into the same stitch you just worked.
To decrease, pull up loops as normally, but before you start pulling through 2,
pull up another loop from the next stitch. Then y/o and pull through in groups of
2 like you would normally.
