This vibrant Fab Four set are worked in worsted weight yarns, with wired limbs for maximum rock n’ roll posability! Each of the four dolls is a crochet maestro, differentiated by yarn colors, hair length, and accessories – a stitch-perfect tribute to the iconic quartet. The instruments in the photo are constructed with polymer clay though toys, ornaments or dollhouse miniatures would also be suitable.

This 14-page pattern includes more than 30 colour photos and is suitable for crochet enthusiasts with a bit of experience, and also includes an extra visual guide to suggested tools and supplies. So, twist and shout with your crochet hook as you create a yarn tribute to the timeless tunes of the Fab Four!
