Gauge

5 sc = 1 inch (2.5 cm) in continuous rounds. Exact gauge is not critical, but work tightly so stuffing does not show.

Notes

• Work in continuous spirals unless stated. Use a stitch marker in the first stitch of every round.
• Stuff firmly as you go, especially head and body.
• Color changes: work last yarn-over of previous stitch in new color.
• All pieces use basic sphere or cylinder construction.

Assembly

1. Sew head centered on open top of body. Add extra stuffing at neck join if needed for stability.
2. Pin and sew arms to sides of body at approximately rnd 5–6 of body (shoulder height). Angle slightly forward.
3. Sew legs to bottom of body, spaced evenly so doll sits or stands with support.
4. Place beanie on head; sew around lower edge, leaving front open or slightly tilted for “slouchy” look. Tack purple stripe if used.
5. Sew purple fringe/bangs under front edge of beanie so they peek out over forehead.
6. Face (after beanie placement):
   • Eyes: embroider two yellow ovals or circles with black pupils (or install safety eyes between rnds 8–10 of head before final close). Uzi often has a sharp/angry expression—angle them slightly.
   • Optional: small white highlight stitch in each eye.
   • Mouth: small straight or slightly downturned black stitch; or a tiny “X” or grim line with embroidery floss.
   • Optional gray face-plate outline: a few straight stitches around the gray band.
7. Weave in all ends securely. Shape by rolling between hands.

Finishing Touches

• Add a small purple or white embroidered mark on beanie if desired (simplified logo).
• For a firmer “drone” look, stuff very firmly and use tight tension.
• Spot-clean only; do not machine wash.

Size Adjustments

• Larger doll: add 1–2 increase rounds (to 30 sts) on head/body and extra even rounds.
• Smaller/keychain: stop increases at 18 sts and reduce even rounds; use DK yarn.

Enjoy your Uzi plush! This beginner pattern uses only magic ring, sc, inc, dec, and basic sewing—perfect for a first character doll.
