This model is of Captain Jack Harkness, from Doctor Who and Torchwood. He is designed to be approximately the same size as the other doctor who - related dolls I have made (eg. Missy and Bill Potts)
If you have a few spare minutes either before or after completing this pattern I would greatly appreciate if you could take a few minutes to fill out this questionnaire, in order to help me improve this website and make it more accessible. Thank you!
Difficulty:
Medium - difficult
The crochet itself isn't too challenging, but the embroidery can be difficult to try to make it look like Captain Jack.
You will need:
- 2 stitch markers (although scraps of yarn will work as well)
- dk yarn in peach (or a suitable skin colour), dark brown, and dark grey
- 4ply yarn in light blue, white, black, cream, brown, and a scrap of grey
- embroidery thread in light blue, light grey, dark grey, black, dark brown, pink(various shades for the lips), silver, a scrap of green and purple (optional), cream, and gold
- A 2mm crochet hook
- A 2.5mm crochet hook
- A 1.1mm (approx.) crochet hook
- 0.5mm silver wire
- a pair of pliers
- a pet blush
- A kettle or saucepan (for boiling water)
- Toy stuffing
- A darning needle, embroidery needle, and regular sewing needle
- 2 small black snap fasteners (approx 8mm)
- 4 small silver snap fasteners (or 6 if you would like to be able to undress the doll completely)
- One black button approx 12mm
- 7 white 8mm buttons
Note:
- To make my patterns easier to read, in most cases instead f writing'sc in the next ... sts' I have just written 'sc...' Eg. 'sc12' means 'sc in the next 12 sts'
- 'fasten off neatly' refers to a special way of fastening off which is neater and makes it easier to see where you should be crocheting on the next round (also known as invisible fastening off). This involves pulling up your yarn through your stitch, threading the yarn underneath the second stitch from where you pulled your yarn up, then threading your yarn back through the top of this stitch and down through the back of the work. There is a very helpful site that explains it clearly found here. Just make sure when you do this that you thread your needle through the SECOND stitch after the last stitch you made, otherwise you will end up with an extra stitch which may mean that all of the following rounds are out of line with each other.
- This pattern includes the foundation single crochet stitch. A handy website for learning to do this stitch can be found here, or alternatively a video tutorial can be found here.
For every part of the body, unless specifies, use a 2.5mm hook and peach dk yarn

Fasten off neatly
Don't stuff yet
Press the lower arm and hand flat, as shown below (image)
For the thumb:
Note: When you make the second hand make sure that it the reverse of the first hand (the thumb should be on different sides of the elbow)
Insert your hook through the post of one of the stitches in between rounds 2 and 3 (as shown below)(Note: the magic loop you made isn't counted when numbering the rows in the pattern above, so looking at your hand from the end your hook should be inserted between the 3rd and 4th circle).
Pull your yarn through, ch1, then make 2sc into where you first inserted your hook.
Ch1, then sc2tog through the 2 sts you just made.
Fasten off
Again make sure that when you make the thumb on the second hand it is on the opposite side of the hand to the first one you made, with respect to the elbow (the 2sc x2 and sc2tog x2 you did on rows 10 and 11)
For the fingers:
insert your hook through the post of the stitch between the magic loop and round 1 directly above where you made the thumb (as shown below)
pull the yarn through, ch1, then sc into where you inserted your hook. ch1, sc in this st you just made, ch1, sc in this next st you made.
Fasten off
Insert your hook into the spoke between the first and the second row on the other edge of the hand (as shown below)
Pull yarn through, ch1, sc in where you inserted your hook, ch1, sc in this st you just made. Fasten off
You now need to make 2 more fingers in the same way as you made the first one, in between the two fingers you have already made. It doesn't particularly matter where you insert your hook for each st, as long as they end up both being in between the two existing stitches. This will mean you end up with a hand looking similar to the ones below
After you have made the arms mark with either a scrap of yarn or a stitch marker the stitch on each arm directly above the thumb.
For the body:
Round 1: rejoin yarn to the 3rd stitch after the new stitch you made when fastening off neatly on one of the leg sections,sc in this st and the next 17sts, then sc in the 10th st before the new st on the other leg. Sc in the next 17sts around this leg (36sts)
Round 2: sc in the first st, 2sc in the next st, sc2, 2sc in the following st, sc13, 3sc in the next st, sc12, 2sc in the next st, sc2, 2sc in the following st, sc in the last st (42sc)

Rounds 17 - 18: (2 rounds) sc in each st
Round 19: sc10, 2sc in the next st, sc15, 2sc in the following st, sc3
Rounds 20 - 21: (2 rounds) sc in each st
Fasten off neatly
For the shoulders:
Continue stuffing this section as you are making it
Round 22: rejoin yarn to the 4th st after the new stitch you made when fastening off neatly on the body. Sc in this st, then sc5. Sc in the 6th st before the stitch marker on the left arm (the one where the thumb is facing forward when the elbow is on the outside when attaching it at this point (as shown below)), sc in the next 8sts around this arm, skip three from where you last crocheted into on the body section, then sc14 around the body. Sc in the other arm in the second stitch before where the stitch marker is, then sc in the next 8sts around this arm. Skip 3 on the body, then sc6 (44sc)
Rounds 23 - 25: (3 rounds) sc in each st
Round 26: sc16, sc2tog, sc10, sc2tog, sc (42sc)
Round 27: sc9, sc5tog, sc2, sc2tog, sc8, sc2tog, sc2, sc5tog, sc7 *(32sc)

Round 29: sc7, sc2tog, sc in the loop behind the back loop only of the next 4sts, 2sc in both loops of the next st, then sc in the loop behind the back loops only of the next 4sts. Sc2tog in both loops of the next 2sts, then sc in both loops of the last 4 sts (23sc)
Round 30: sc6, sc3tog, sc8, sc3tog, sc3 (19sc)
Round 31: sc5, sc3tog, sc6, sc3tog, sc2 (15sc)
Rounds 32 - 34: (3 rounds) sc in each st
Row 35: sc6, turn
Row 35.5: slip6
Fasten off
Add any extra stuffing if needed, then sew up the holes under the armpits
For the neck detail (optional):
To add extra detail to the body I decided to use surface crochet to try to recreate the ridges highlighted below.
Start off by attaching the yarn to the neck area just to the right of the right collarbone (looking at it from the front) (the collarbone is the ridge made by crocheting in the back loop only).
After you've done this, make slip stitches across the surface of the neck, going up and slightly to the right as you do this. Make 4 slip sts in this way then fasten off, as shown in the images below.
After doing this, rejoin the yarn to a stitch just to the left of the left collarbone (again looking at it from the front)
In the same way as you did before, make slip stitches up the neck, this time going slightly left as you do so. Make 4 of these sts then fasten off, as shown below
To finish off with the body, sew in the loose ends. You may also wish to add extra detail by using small stitches though the body to either shape the bottom better or add in a belly button, as shown below:
This can be done by making repeated stitches through the body, so that they emerge at the same place at the front of the body each time, but at the back of the body they emerge in between different stitches each time and return in exactly the same place (so that you don't get weirdly shaped indents in the back of the body)
For the head:

Round 1: sc in the 2nd chain st from hook, then sc in the following chain st. Make 3sc in the next chain st (the first one you made), then sc into the back of the previous chain st you crocheted into, before making 2sc into the back of the first chain st you crocheted into (8sc)
Round 2: sc3, 2sc in each of the next 2sts, sc2, then make 2sc in the last st (12sc)
Round 3: make 2sc in the first st, sc3, make 2sc in each of the next 2sts, sc4, make 2sc in the last st (16sc)

stuff firmly
Round 16: sc2tog 6 times
Fasten off
Sew up this opening
For the face:
The facial features are extremely difficult to get accurate. You really need to just do each aspect as well as you can and see how it looks when it's finished, then improve on it from there if necessary.
You may want to use the following images as references when embroidering the facial features to increase the screen-accuracy of the doll.
For the nose:
Make a magic loop with 2sc. ch1, turn
Row 1: sc in each of these sts. ch1, turn
Row 2: 2sc in each of these 2sts (4sc)
Fasten off
Sew this to the centre of the face.
For the left ear:
ch3
Round 1: Make 3sc in the 2nd loop from hook, then make 3hdc in the next chain st (the first one you made). ch1, then slip the same chain st you just crocheted in.
Fasten off
For the right ear:
ch4
Round 1: make 3hdc in the 3rd chain from hook, then make 3sc in the next chain st (the first one you made)
Fasten off
Sew the ears to the sides of the head. You can see this in the first of the images showing the eyes.
For the eyes:
With 3 strands of white embroidery thread embroider the whites of the eyes (Image 1 below). After this add a pupil in the centre using one strand of black embroidery thread (Image 2). Next add the iris by using 2 strands of light blue embroidery thread to sew a circle around the pupil (Images 3 - 4), then outline this using one strand of grey embroidery thread (Image 5). You may then want to enlarge the pupil slightly using another strand of black embroidery thread. Finally, add a highlight to the pupil using one strand of white embroidery thread.
Use cream 4ply yarn to embroider eyelids over the top of the eyes, then use one strand of black embroidery thread to embroider the impression of eyelashed onto the eyelids (you can see this in the image showing the eyebrows).
For the eyebrows:
embroider the eyebrows using one strand of dark brown embroidery thread, as shown below.
For the lips:
Embroider the lips using pink embroidery thread, as shown below. You can choose to do this either before adding the hair or afterwards. Its easier to do before, but doing it afterwards will make it easier to tell how accurate the lips are.
I used no. 152 embroidery thread for the base of the lips, then added highlights using no. 224 thread.
For the hair:
Cut out a rectangle of cardboard 6cm long and wind dark brown dk yarn around it. Cut these loops of yarn at one end so you have lots of 12cm long strands.
Attach these to the top of the head. To do this, fold each strand in half and pull the folded end through a stitch in the head using your crochet hook. thread the loose ends through the loop created and pull tight to seccure.
When adding hair to the top of the head, try to recreate the side parting that Captain Jack has, as can be seen in the image below.
Repeat this process using a 4cm long piece of cardboard, and then again with a 3cm long piece of cardboard.
Attach these strands to the sides and back of the head using the same technique as before.
Don't worry at this point that the hair is very poofy and doesn't look much like Jack's - there will be some serious hair styling later.
After you have attached the hair, get a pet brush and brush the hair to make it smooth and fluffy.
Next, get a bowl of freshly boiled water and dip the head into it so that the hair is submerged. This should cause the hair to smooth down a lot. Leave the head in a warm place overnight to dry off.
You next need to trim the hair very drastically. Cut the fringe shorter and do the same with the hair at the back of the head. In places where the hair has been cut very short (such as at the back and sides of the head), you may want to add a few stitches using brown sewing cotton to reduce the risk of it falling out.
Once you are happy with the hair you may also want to shape the face to make it more similar to John Barrowman's. I did this using cream sewing cotton and using stitches in various places on the face to pull it into place. I tried to make the jawbones more defined and also shape the chin, as shown below:
You may also want to sew small sections of the hair in front of the ear to make the sideburns.
After you've done this lips and hair you may want to make adjustments to the face to improve it. I made a lot of small adjustments (although I still wasn't completely happy with how it turned out), such as making the eyebrows larger and shortening the hair at the back and sides of the head.
For the undershirt:
I made this undershirt last so it is not included in lots of the pictures, but it is designed to go underneath the shirt and show through the top where the collar is open.

Round 4: (slightly more than 1 round) sc in the front loop only of the next 2sts. Fasten off then fasten on to the back loop only of the first st you crocheted in for this round (as shown below). Sc in the back loop only of this st and the next st, then sc in both loops of the next 50sts. Fasten off. (52sc)
I'm aware that it's difficult to see what's going on here since the trousers are black. If you're confused about this please get in contact with me and I would be happy to clarify it for you. |

For the buckle:
Cut a length of wire approximately 7 - 8 times the width of the belt. Using the same yarn that you made the belt out of, sew the centre of this wire to one end of the belt.
Next, curl the longer end of the wire round so that it makes a loop and comes back the way it was going originally (as shown below). Sew over the section of wire that overlaps with where you sewed over before to attach it to the end of the belt.
Fold the other end of the length of wire back on itself the upwards so that it crosses the loop of wire you have just made perpendicularly (as shown below). Sew over the folded length of this wire to hold it in place. You will also need to trim the loose end of the wire you curved to make a loop.
Trim the end of the wire pointing upwards so that it is just a little longer than the height of the loop (so that it sticks out a bit)
Thread this belt through the belt loops of the trousers and fasten it.
For the shirt:
Use blue 4ply yarn and a 2mm hook throughout

Sew four buttons to the front of the shirt just in front of where you attached the upper snap fastener. Sew a final button to the other side of the shirt to give the impression that the top button is undone, as shown below:
Sew the other two buttons to the cuffs of the shirt. You may need to sew them a little way in from the edge of the cuff so that they do up tightly around the wrists.

For the belt buckle:
Get a reasonable long piece of wire and use pliers to shape it into a sort of square figure-of-eight shape, before folding the ends of the wire around the rest of the structure to keep it in place, as shown below:
Make sure that the holes in the shape are large enough that you can fit the belt through them twice and still have a little room left over (i.e. if you fold the belt in half you should be able to fit it through very easily).
After you have done this, wind golden embroidery thread around the whole of the outside of this buckle, as shown below.
Thread the 'cast on' edge (i.e. the straighter end) of the belt through each of these holes so that it loops back on itself around the middle segment. Sew this end to the rest of the belt a little way down (as shown below).

Sew these to the shoulders so that the 'cat on' edge is roughly in line with the shoulder seams and the end is pointing inwards towards the collar.
After you've done this use light grey 4ply yarn to embroider 4 stripes onto these pads (these can be seen in the 2nd image below (also showing the positioning of the brass buttons)
For the brass buttons:
Use gold embroidery thread to embroider the buttons onto the coat. You will need to sew 5 buttons up each side of the coat, and then another one on the shoulder pads on the end nearest the collar.Use a 1.1mm hook throughout

Sew one of the ends of the strap to the centre of this buckle, as shown below. After you've done this, trim any extra wire on the buckle.

Sew this section to the lower flap.
You may then want to add detail to the face of the vortex manipulator using embroidery. Refer to the reference images below as you do this. I used dark brown embroidery thread to sew a strip across the silver section, then added a small green circle to act as a screen, along with a purple button on top of the brown strip. I then added further detail using black embroidery thread.

After this round you will need to insert some wire into the body of the gun to keep it stiff. Start by using pliers to fold the end of the wire over to prevent any sharp ends.
Insert this end into the barrel of the gun, then fold the other end round into a shape that ould fit around the rest of the gun, before inserting it and continuing with the rest of the gun.

Use pliers to fold over one end of the wire to make it blunter, then fold the wire into 3 sides of a rectangle that will fit into the barrel of the gun, as shown below. Use the free end to shape into a trigger section, then fit the rectangle section of the wire into the gun hangle.
Sew the handle to the rest of the gun, then thread the other end of the trigger section through a stitch in the gun, before folding down this end and trimming it. After this wind the end of the wire around the handle section to cover over the wire.
