Take Along Dollhouse
I created this take along dollhouse using worsted weight yarn and size F crochet hook (except for people who are made with baby yarn and size 4 hook)
Make Wall
74 double crochet x 12 rows (slip stitch for windows on one row and chain across opening for next row)
Mark Placement for Floor
Count over 18 stitches from each end and place pin.
Make Floor
Attach yarn and crochet in front loop only.
Front Flap
36 stiches x 10 rows for the floor + 36 stitches x 12 rows for the front. (I did them attached by using only the front loop when transitioning, but you could do them separate and sew them together)
Make the Ceiling
36 stitches x 10 rows sewn to the top edge.
Make Middle Floor
36 stitches x 10 rows sewn at middle of wall (6 rows)
Make Center Walls
11 stitches x 8 rows sewn in middle of middle floor
Sew Walls to Floor and Ceiling
Sew Side Walls
Make Roof Peaks
17 stitches x 7 rows with decrease on both sides of each row.
Make Roof
36 stitches x 14 rows
Sew Roof
Make Handle
I made my handle to look like a vine growing on the house
My House Was Sagging
The weight of the house was making it sag
Fix Sag!
I got brown pipe cleaners, folded them in half and twisted them
Sew on Pipe Cleaners
I added the pipe cleaners to the 4 corners of the house + the fronts of the interior walls
Sag Fixed!
Make Furnishings
Attic
When I sewed on the roof, I left an opening in the front to create an attic to store objects.
