Standing approximately 46 cm (18 inches) tall, this sweet amigurumi gingerbread doll is designed with 24 numbered pockets (each approx. 5 × 7 cm / 2 × 2.8 in), perfect for hiding tiny treats, notes, or toys.

The widest part of the toy includes 200 stitches.
Made using smooth Sport 5 ply cotton-blend yarn (330 m/100 g) and a 2 mm crochet hook.
The gauge is 26 sts × 30 rows = 10 × 10 cm (4 × 4 in) in single crochet.
Budget 2-3 weeks for this project depending on your speed.

By my estimate, this project will take between 10 and 20 days to complete, depending on your pace. I used a thin, smooth yarn for the gingerbread, so if you choose a thicker yarn, your finished toy will come out larger in size.
