The Smurf collection is never complete without Smurfette, so here she is!! I had a lot of fun designing her and I hope you all enjoy her too! Fyi, she is one biker babe and she can stand on her own! :)
Smurfette
Pattern created by Emily Lucero
Materials:
G hook
Yarn colors (Red Heart Super Saver)- turqua, white, yellow,
small amount of black
Stitch marker (safety pin works)
2 safety eyes (I used blue)
Head (turqua)
Rnd 2: inc around (12)
Rnd 3: sc, inc in next 2 st, sc in next 3 st, inc in next
2 st, sc in next 4 st (16)
Rnd 4: (inc every third st) 5 times, sc in last stitch
(21)
Rnd 5: sc in next 2 st, inc in next 3 st, sc in next 7
st, inc in next 3 st, sc in next 6 st (27)
Rnd 6-7: sc around (27)
Rnd 8: sc in next 2 st, dec 3 times, sc in next 7 st, dec 3
times, sc in next 6 st (21)
Rnd 9: (sc in next 2 st, dec) 5 times, sc in last stitch
(16)
Rnd 10: sc, dec 2 times, sc in next 3 st, dec 2 times, sc
in next 4 st (12)
Rnd 11: dec around (6)
Finishing: Place eyes between the 4th and 5th
rows, with two stitches between. Stuff
head firmly. Weave end of yarn through
each stitch of Round 11 and pull closed.
Fasten off, leaving a length of yarn for attaching head to body.
Nose (turqua)
Rnd 1: 3 sc in mc (3)
Rnd 2: inc around (6)
Rnd 3: dec around (3)
Rnd 4: sc in next 2 st, finish off.
Finishing: Only 2 of the 4 stitches of round 4 have sc
made in them. This makes the nose a bit
uneven. Attach the nose to the face,
just below the eyes with the two stitches of round 4 on the bottom. This forces the nose to point slightly
upward. Weave in the extra yarn.
Hair (yellow)
Loop yellow yarn around and around (length isn’t
important, just make sure the hair is longer than necessary, then trim later. In the end the hair should reach down to the
bottom of her dress). Tie the top part
of the loop together using a stray piece of yellow yarn. Cut the bottom of the loop so that you are
left with a bunch of hair strands free at the bottom yet connected at the
top. Do this three individual times,
creating 3 clusters of hair. Attach the
hair to Smurfette’s head. I attached the
3 clusters strategically: two facing back and the third to act as her bangs so
coming across her head just above the forehead.
For the bang cluster, gather them up so they push out a little bit, then
pin to her head where her ear would be.
I tied the hair back slightly from her face to avoid her hair covering
her face.
Hat (white)
Rnd 1: Ch 33, sl st in 1st ch to form ring
Rnd 2: sc around (32)
Rnd 3: (sc in 6 st, dec) 4 times (28)

Rnd 6: sc in next 6 st, ch 1, turn (6)
Rnd 7: sc 15 st around (stitching back across the 6 st
from last rnd, and dropping to the remaining stitches from row 6), sl st in
last stitch of rnd 7 (15)
Rnd 8: sc in next st, (dec every other) 4 times, sc in
next 2 st (11)
Rnd 9: sc around (11)
Rnd 10: sc, dec, sc in next 4 st, dec, sc in next 2 st (9)
Rnd 11-15: sc around (9)
Rnd 16: sc, dec 4 times (5)
Finishing: Weave end of yarn through each stitch of Round
17 and pull closed. Stuff tip of hat
lightly, fold over in front and attach to round 6 of hat. Stuff the rest of hat lightly before
attaching to head. Attach to head, on
top of hair. Make sure that Smurfette’s
hair is spread out evenly under the hat before attaching.

Finishing: Pull triple stich out so it pokes out like her
high heel. Stuff body, leg and foot
completely. Whip stitch foot closed from

the foot longer rather than wider to match the general shape of a smurf
foot. Finish off and weave extra yarn
into leg.

turqua, then white later)

loop. Ch 1, sc 9 around

Rnd 5-10: same as rnds 5-10 of Leg #1
Finishing: Pull triple stich out so it pokes out like her
high heel. Stuff body, leg and foot
completely. Whip stitch foot closed from
one side to the other. This will make
the foot longer rather than wider to match the general shape of a smurf
foot. Finish off and weave extra yarn
into leg. Attach Smurfette’s head to her
body.
Body Adjustment:
~With a stray piece of turqua yarn, connect to the side
middle of Smurfette’s belly. Take yarn
through her body and pull, thinning out her body slightly, kind of like a
girdle… oh the joys of being a girl. ;) This will help her look more feminine
and help the dress fit a bit better.
~With black yarn, sew on a mouth
Hand (turqua)-
make 2
Rnd 1: ch 8, sl st in 1st ch to make loop
Rnd 2: sc around (8)

Rnd 10: (dec every other) 4 times (8)
Rnd 11: dec around (4)
Finishing: whip stitch fingertip end closed. Pull yarn through to outside of palm, thread
yarn through hand, pulling to make her hand cup slightly, tie off then continue
weaving yarn down the wrist until it comes out through the bottom. Do not stuff.
Use remaining yarn to attach arm to body in desired position.
