Notes

 Working will be in continuous rounds.
 Make sure to place your stitch marker at the beginning of each round.
 The doll will be crocheted from the bottom up i.e.: will start working from the legs and end by the head
 Following the above recommended supplies will give you a doll of approximate 17 cm height. Using thicker type of yarn with bigger hook will give you bigger doll.
