Cello Assembly:
Edge the entire piece with sc. Create decorative notches at the corners. To create the f-hole shape: chain 3, from 2nd ch work 2 sc, then a sl st over the loop. Sew the two body pieces together. Pro Tip: Use a piece of plastic or hard cardboard cut to the cello shape inside the body to help it keep its form. Stuff firmly but not so much that it stretches.

Cello Neck & Scroll:
Make 2 neck pieces: Chain 6, from 2nd ch 5 sc. Rows 2-4: 5 sc. Row 5: 1 dec, 1 sc, 1 dec (3 sts). Rows 6-9: 3 sc. Row 10: 1 sc, 1 dec (2 sts). Rows 11-28: 2 sc. Sew them together. For the scroll, work 6 sc in a magic ring, row 2: (1 sc, 1 inc) repeat 3 times (9 sts), rows 3-5: 9 sc, rows 6-8: 1 ch, turn, 6 sc (leaving 3 sts unworked in the center).

Final Cello Assembly:
Sew the neck to the top. Embroider f-holes with black thread. Sew the sub-f-hole part from the bottom to the area between rows 6 and 7. Use 4 white threads for the strings. Pass them through the bottom (between rows 6 and 7), then through the bridge, anchor them at the bottom of the neck, and pull them up to the top of the scroll.

Music Stand & Legs:
Main Stand: Chain 11, from 2nd ch 10 sc. Rows 2-8: 10 sc. Row 9: 10 bpsc (back post single crochet). Rows 10-16: 10 sc. Edge with sc.
Legs: Wrap 12 inches of wire with black yarn. Cut into small pieces, join them, and wrap more yarn to create the stand structure. Attach the stand to the music sheet.

Finishing

Assembly is key! For the doll, sew the sweater and cardigan together carefully. Attach the sleeves to the cardigan armholes. For the cello, ensure the strings are taut and the bridge is placed roughly 8 rows above the sub-f-hole. Finally, attach the music stand and cello together using the wire legs to create a complete scene.

Tips for Success

  • Tension is everything: When making miniature clothes, try to keep your tension even so the garment doesn’t look “gappy.”
  • Color Changes: Always change your color on the final pull-through of the last stitch to avoid visible gaps.
  • Structure: For items like the cello, using a cardboard or plastic insert is the best way to prevent the amigurumi from looking “squishy.”
  • Wire Work: When wrapping wire, use hot glue to secure the ends so the wire doesn’t unravel.
