Construction

Pen Pals Dolls are knit in one piece from the bottom-up. The doll’s body can be knit flat on straight needles and seamed, or knit in the round on dpns. The overalls and ears are knit from stitches picked up from the finished doll. Details are added with embroidery and simple sewing techniques are used to define the arms and legs after knitting.

Gauge

Exact gauge is not important; Choose a needle 2 or 3 sizes smaller than recommended on the ball band to create a dense fabric that will keep the stuffing hidden
