Beads jointed doll Samanta
Introducing our delightful Knitted Doll Toy, a delightful project perfect for knitting enthusiasts of all levels! This charming doll features movable arms, rotating legs, and a movable head, allowing for endless imaginative play. Once completed, the finished doll stands approximately 17.3 inches (44 cm) tall, making it an ideal companion for children or a lovely addition to your home decor. The doll's clothes are removable, adding an interactive element to playtime.
To create this adorable knitted doll, you will need the following materials:
- • Four double-pointed needles in a size suitable for your chosen yarn weight. For a firm fabric, I recommend using needles that are one or two sizes smaller than the yarn calls for. For this project, I used size 2.5 mm (US size 2) needles for the doll's body and size 5 mm (US size 8) needles for the clothing.
- • Cream yarn, Special Stylecraft DK in color 1005 (100% acrylic, 304 meters/100 grams) for the doll's skin.
- • Dark brown yarn, Special Stylecraft DK in color Copper 1029 (100% acrylic, 304 meters/100 grams) for the doll's hair.
- • Red and green yarns, Special Stylecraft DK in colors Tomato 1723 and Aspen 1422 (100% acrylic, 304 meters/100 grams each) for the stylish beret and jacket.
- • Green Kid-mohair by Scheepjes Mohair Rhythm in color Twist 675 (2 ply, 70% Mohair, 30% Microfibre, 200 meters/25 grams) for the doll's stockings and beret.
