All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end. No circular knitting is required. They are small pocket-size dolls.
The sample is made with 4-ply (fingering) yarn; however, it is possible to make them with DK (8-ply) yarn with larger needles to produce slightly larger dolls. The bodies share a fundamental pattern that is identical to that of the previously published Pinocchio doll.
