Arms
Skin colour.
Ears
1sc, 5hdc, 1sc in a magic ring.
Pull up ring, stitch to each side of the head.
Bee jumper/sweater
I used the ‘scrubs top’ pattern - yoke black, then alternate yellow and black rounds. (Think I added a few rounds to the body and sleeves of the jumper).
I added a row of foundation dc around the bottom of each leg of the shorts.
Beanie/hat
Basic black beanie…finish with yellow.
Hair
I stitched a couple of curls just under the front of the Beanie.
Antennae
I used fuzzy black chenille rods (pipe-cleaners)…rolled the ends into a spiral - hot-glued a circle of felt behind each spiral.
Wings
Based on the wings from ‘BUZZ’ the House Fly pattern by Lalylala. (Paid pattern)
I used a light grey yarn, then over-sewed the edges with silver metallic thread. I made shorter, wider wings of the WeeBee bee doll.
