This design is for a small doll, as well as a cupcake for them to live in!

You attach the arms to the doll as you work, and so the only sewing involved with this, is to attach the hat and to embroider the facial details. The pattern also includes a poem that can be printed out to accompany the Pocket Pal if it’s a gift (or being made to sell as a gift).

Using 4 Ply cotton and & 2.5 mm hook, the Pocket Pal doll is 6 cm tall. With Aran / light worsted weight yarn & 4 mm hook it comes out at roughly 8.5 cm tall.

You will need:

Yarn for the Pocket Pal: Yarn of your choice in pale pink as well as one other colour for the body and hat. Yarn weight doesn’t really matter - the size of your Pocket Pal will simply turn out bigger or smaller!

Yarn for the cupcake: The same weight yarn in two colours of your choice (for the top and base sections of your cupcake) as well as red for the cherry on the top!

A suitable size hook for the yarn you have chosen.

A small amount of toy stuffing.

A small amount of black and dark pink finer yarn / embroidery thread for adding the face details.

If you choose to sew the sprinkles onto the top of your cake then you’ll need some finer yarn / embroidery thread for this too, or you could add sequins or beads instead.

Other tools you will need are a tapestry needle, some scissors and a stitch marker.

You are welcome to sell the items that you make using this pattern, but please do not sell / share the pattern itself. Thank you
