This elegant jar topper fits a wide-mouth canning jar. It looks nice filled with sewing sundries, or you can use it as a pin-cushion. It would look nice on a little girl’s dresser to hold her hair accessories.

You could also use it for bath salts, cotton balls, etc. The doll has lots of detail, and can be made separately as a 4-inch miniature bed doll.

Crochet the doll from size 10 thread with a size 7 hook, and the lid skirt from size 10 thread with a size 5 hook.

The booklet has 12 pages of instructions and photos, including color photos of the finished doll.
