isn't she just the cutest. i found the pattern here & she was super easy to make. the pattern came out a little small for overlocked edges, so the next one i'll make a little bigger...trying to turn those mini legs & arms inside out was a bit of a nightmare.
i stuffed the arms & legs with rice, which gives her a really nice weight & ensures that they hang nicely. the face & arms were made from left over hemp terry towelling & i embroidered her face rather than painting it on.
so i got a bit distracted from the knitting, but armed with a book i've been quietly developing my skill set...i can now increase, decrease, do fancy stitches & somewhat follow a pattern...so i'm off to buy some wool.
