• Supplies information
You must use a small size yarn for this doll. If you use a medium/4 weight yarn, your doll will come our very big. I used Yarn Art jeans for the entire doll. You can find similar yarn. I recommend a cotton or cotton blend yarn. Hobbii’s 8/4 cotton yarn is similar and affordable. You will need wire for the body, I found my inexpensive wire in the floral section at JoAnn Fabrics in a pack. You can use a dowel or chop stick for the head stabilixation instead, but you can’t put the doll in the dryer if you did that.

• About the pattern
This pattern is very detailed and takes a lot of time, but it’s very well worth it! There is very little sewing involved in the doll itself. This is my first “realistic” doll pattern, if you like it please let me know and I can make more ❤️
