Sweet Bernadette, the adorable microbiologist, can whip up a batch of flesh-eating bacteria or go out dancing with her girlfriends; it’s all in a day’s work. She’s wearing a dress with a full skirt, a cardigan, black tights, and flats. She’s just one of the characters I’ve designed from my favorite TV show. Bernadette is a delightful project for someone looking for some nerd action.

This is a small doll (6” / 15 cm) so you don’t need very much of any yarn color. You will need yarn for:

• hair
• skin
• dress
• cardigan
• tights
• underpants
• shoes
• glasses
• mouth

Gauge is not important as long as you have a dense fabric without noticeable holes.

Materials needed:

worsted weight yarn
crochet hook
2 9mm 2-piece black plastic eyes
polyester fiber fill
stitch marker
row counter
