(my wife crochets).

Crochet figures generally look 'pixelated', where a pixel is a single stitch. The eyes on these figures don't look stitched at all. The hair looks like waves of material that also lack a stitched look (compared with the faces). The curves of the lower lip cut across stitches (going by the size of the stitches on the adjacent skin) and don't have that pixelated look.

[Edit] Also, I don't know what these crochet sites generally show, but in the pictures I've seen, it's usual to show the figure against a plain backdrop or on a table, not part of a scene with a detailed background (which in this case, also lacks stitches)
