    That's adorable! I'm an NCIS fiend too, and I have a total girl crush on Abby. This is just one more reason I need to learn to crochet!

    That is awesome! I love NCIS and I think Abby is soo cool. :)

    (Pauley Perrett (the actress) does a great job at making Abby such a real character.)

    Great job!

    I want you to know that I'm making this doll w/ a few changes as a zoologist for my BF's baby sister, but while watching NCIS on TV... the irony makes me laugh.

    I love the pattern and as soon as I finish Ravelympics I'm going to start on it. Just one question. Are the crochet instructions UK or US? I know there is a difference.

    Thank you for publishing this pattern.

  16. Maggie22 February 2010 at 19:02

    All my patterns are in US instructions as i find they make more sense. Good luck with the Ravelympics.

    I Was wondering on the body after the baack loops pnly part for the next rounds do you keep working in back loops or do you work in both loops? Thanks for the pattern

  23. Maggie17 July 2011 at 09:08

    Hi, you'll go back to working in both loops after that round,
    as for the hair, I sewed around the hair line then attached the hair to those stitches with the crochet hook, I hope that helps

    I love your Abby! Did you think of making one and sending it to Pauley Perrete for her to have. Maybe someone else has already done this with a pattern they invented, but non could be any cuter or more accurate than yours. I think you should send one to NCIS.
