The finished doll is approximately 22,5 inches (57 cm) tall.

The toy is knitted in the round and that is why the pattern is recommended for Advanced Beginner Knitters.

Materials needed
• 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric. İ used Needles US 6 (4 mm) and US 2½ (3 mm).
• 200 gr light cream colored yarn for doll. I used Nako Sport Wool ( 25% Wool, 75% Acrylic; 100gr = 120m ).
• 50 gr blue yarn for hair. I used Nako Sport Wool ( 25% Wool, 75% Acrylic; 100gr = 120m ).
• Yellow, Brown and white colred yarns for dress. I used Apple doğal iplik / 100%; 100 gr – 380m /
• Toy stuffing
• Yarn needle
• Stitch holder
• Black buttons for eyes ( 10 mm )

All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams .
