My daughter spotted this pattern while I was browsing Rav and fell in love with Lollo. I can’t wait to see the lookon her face when he’s finished.

15/8/12 - All the body motifs are made, just the ends to sew in and to start the joining.

16/8/12 - I have a bear bottom! ;o) (I’ve been waiting all day to be able to say that.)

17/8/12 - Body croched together, but I’m not going to stuff it untill I have all the bits made up. I’m pleased with how it looks given that I had to substitue hook sizes for DK yarn (pattern is written for 4 ply). The joining is fiddly, I wonder if it would have been quicker to sew the motifs together.

19/8/12 - Most of the head motifs and the arm motifs made up to round 3.

23/8/12 - “Flora” now has a head.

24/8/12 Arms now complete :o)

25/8/12 All the leg motifs are now made yup to round 3 an I’ve ordered a dollmakers needle to join all the parts together.

27/8/12 Motifs all joined and stuffed! Can’t wait for my needle to arrive so I can join them all together - so exciting! :o)

29/8/12 Flora is finished!
