This is a little sock doll nurse or doctor. She is about 9” tall. You can make a boy or girl, add a ponytail, or bun in the back. I have made many of these to thank the medical professionals that help our family so very much and give so selflessly to see to our comfort and health. This is a quick relatively simple project to make.

The pattern is written for a circular sock machine but has been easily knit on a flat bed machine and knitted by hand with double pointed needles. The charts are easy to understand and the instructions are adaptable if you have a basic understanding of German short rows and kitchener stitch.

What a fun idea for little ones, babies, students or your medical professionals.

It uses leftovers of yarn and is very soft with the fingering yarn.
