Size of doll: approx 20 inches
Designer: Raewyn Parker (Red Hen Designs)

This delightful dressed doll is approx. 20 inches high and is suitable for intermediate knitters. She is worked flat and seamed.
She is knitted in 8Ply/Dk wool on 3mm needles (UK 11). The yarn I used is a standard pure wool 8 ply She has button eyes you can easily embroider these instead, especially important if you are making a doll for a child under 3 years old.

I have included lots of photos which makes it a large file/pattern.

The doll herself is for intermediate knitters. I also make crochet chains for the ties, but you could use narrow ribbon or make a twisted cord instead. I have provided lots of links to websites to get tutorials in techniques

FREE BONUS: Lil Snow - Sophie’s little friend.
