**Knitted Doll Toy Pattern - Create Your Own Movable Arm Doll** Unleash your creativity with our delightful knitted doll toy pattern! This charming doll features movable arms, making it an ideal companion for playtime or as a decorative piece for your home. Standing at approximately 16.9 inches (43 cm) from head to toe, with a total height of about 17.7 inches (45 cm) when including the hat, this doll is the perfect size for little hands to grasp. **Materials Needed:** To successfully create this adorable knitted doll, gather the following materials: - **4 double-pointed needles**: Opt for a size suitable for your chosen yarn weight. We recommend using needles that are one or two sizes smaller than the yarn suggests to achieve a firm and durable fabric. For this project, I used size 2 (3mm) needles. - **Cream acrylic yarn**: We used Kartopu "Flora," a 100% acrylic yarn (100 g - 230 m), for crafting the doll's body. - **Brown boucle yarn**: Ideal for creating the doll's lovely hair (100 g - 250 m). - **Lilac and yellow wool or acrylic yarn**: Also from Kartopu "Flora," this yarn will bring vibrant colors to your doll's clothing. - **Toy stuffing**: Essential for giving your doll a plush and cuddly form. - **Plastic eyes or buttons**: Choose two plastic eyes or buttons to make your doll come to life. - **Three buttons**: Use these for decorative purposes on your doll's outfit. - **Braided fabric (55 cm)**: This can be used for adding details such as hair or accessories. - **Yarn needle**: Necessary for weaving in ends and assembling your doll. - **Stitch holder**: Handy for keeping your stitches secure while you work. - **Crochet hook, size 2 (3mm)**: Useful for adding embellishments or finishing touches to your doll.
