so, the credit should go to the person concerned. Only thing, I didn't follow everything like wig, skirt and so on. I made the legs, body, arms, sleeve cap and for Krishna's head, made in blue. Then, I made the vest for Krishna in blue,  made 1 ch to turn, which isn't counted as stitch in each row
made 13 ch, then in 2nd ch. from hook, made sc, then sc till the end.
then 12-13 rows with sc, then joined it.

i made this first

 then my daughter-in-law said, that grandson has the idea of Krishna with blue hands, with hair and not crown, so changed it, made sleeve addition in blue, attached it.

back view of Krishna

the hair was first done with ch.23, sc in 2nd ch till the end, then sc in 1st sc, 3 ch, sl st in 2, sl st in the same st., sc in next st.

then row, same way, after that increased the no. of chains every other row, sl st and rest same, then after doing till about middle ch. increasing no. of ch, sl st., then after that reducing the no. of ch. every other row and repeated till the end.

then sew it to head, then those portions that didn't cover, made a long chain of about 250 ch, then attached it around to cover the head !, attached the feather.

hope now my grandson will like this !

Then I slipped the vest/ top on top of the body and stitched it all around to secure it. Then I attached the sleeve cap to arm, then attached the arm to the body.

For Krishna's pant/ dhoti in yellow, made 23 ch, sc in 2nd ch from hook and sc till the end ( 22sc)

2 rows of single crochet, then

1sc in 1st sc, increased 1 sc, made 10 more sc and on the 10th made 2 sc( 13 sc)

made 2 rows of 13 sc

then increased 1 sc in both ends in the next row ( 15 sc)

then made 4 rows of sc

last row, made 1 ch, sc in 1st sc, then *3 dc in the same st., skip 2 sc, sc in next st.*,rep. till the end., then joined the pant with the top first all around, then joined the centre, then each leg separately, then stitched the last row over the shoes, so it stays firm ( or you know how kids are, they'll try to open it !)

Then i made a little crown with 16 ch, then 15 sc in 1st row

dec. 1 st. in each end in each row from 3rd row, till there was 1., then sc all around.

Krishna's eyes, lips, namam on the forehead, I embroidered. Made a small peacock feather using thin thread. First stitched the crown, then stitched the feather just behind the crown to finish it.

This made for my grandson, as he loves Krishna !
