Doll Iris and a handbag for dolls
Introducing our charming Knitted Doll Toy and Matching Handbag for Dolls! This delightful pattern is perfect for knitters looking to create a lovable doll, complete with an adorable handbag. The finished doll stands at approximately 12.6 inches (32 cm) tall, making it the perfect companion for playtime and cuddles. The handbag dimensions are ideal for mini accessories: height with handle - 40 cm (15.75 inches), width 22 cm (8.66 inches), height 23 cm (9.06 inches), and depth 5 cm (1.97 inches).
This comprehensive knitting pattern includes detailed instructions and vivid photographs to guide you through every step of crafting this delightful girl, her unique hairstyle, fashionable clothes, and the stylish handbag. Whether you are an experienced knitter or a beginner, this pattern is designed to ensure your success and satisfaction.
To create your knitted doll and handbag, you'll need the following materials: • **Double-Pointed Needles**: 4 needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you choose. For best results, I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn suggests to create a firm and sturdy fabric. I used size 2 (3mm) and size 5 (3.5mm) needles. • **Cream Acrylic Yarn**: For the doll’s body, we recommend the Kartopu “Flora” yarn (100% acrylic, 100g - 230m). • **Bordo Acrylic Yarn**: Also from Kartopu “Flora” (100% acrylic, 100g - 230m) to craft stylish shoes for your doll. • **Black Acrylic Yarn**: Again, use Kartopu “Flora” (100% acrylic, 100g - 230m) to create beautiful hair for your doll. • **Pink and Gray Yarn**: King Cole Comfort Baby DK (60% Acrylic, 40% Nylon, 100g - 310m) for the handbag, ensuring it has both durability and charm. • **Wool Rainbow Colors Yarn**: For extra flair, use Noro Kureyon (100% Wool, 50g - 100m) to add vibrant colors. • **Plastic Eyes**: To give your doll a cute, lifelike appearance.
Creating this knitted doll and her handbag not only allows you to express your creativity but also results in a unique handmade toy that is perfect for gifting or keeping for yourself. Dive into the world of knitting with this engaging pattern, and enjoy the process of bringing your knitted doll to life!
