Bitsy Baby wants to spread a little love!
Make Bitsy as a gift for Valentines’ day or just to give a little love to someone special.

They are so quick and easy to make.

You can create your own Bitsy Baby in just an evening. –
The body and head are knitted in one piece and after seaming and stuffing the legs are created by sewing a seam through from front to back to divide the legs.

The arms use very simple shaping and are sewn on when making up this cute little character.
Bitsy Babies are cute little pocket sized dolls.

They are made from bits and pieces of left over yarn-
That is why they are called- Bitsy Babies!

Size-14cm /5.5”- Just the right size to fit in a pocket!
