Introducing the Bride and Groom dolls knitting pattern designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz using acrylic DK yarns.

The bride has a bouquet of pink flowers and a full skirt, and the groom is very dapper with his pink bowtie and co-ordinated buttonhole flower. These delightful little dolls could be made as cake toppers, table decorations or mementos for guests. You could change the colours of yarn to personalise your dolls to resemble the human brides and grooms too. Both dolls are knitted flat on single pointed needles.
