Gray Mouse Doll
**Gray Mouse Doll - Tanoshi Series Toy**
Introducing the adorable Gray Mouse Doll from the Tanoshi series! This charming knitted toy stands at approximately 6.3’’ / 16 cm tall and is perfect for both playtime and decoration. Crafted using high-quality materials, this mouse doll is sure to become a favorite companion for children and adults alike.
The knitting pattern for this delightful toy is designed for Advanced Beginner Knitters, as it is knitted in the round. This technique not only enhances the doll's appearance but also eliminates unsightly seams, creating a smooth and polished finish. Whether you're an experienced knitter or looking to advance your skills, this project is an enjoyable challenge that yields satisfying results.
**Materials Needed:**
To create your Gray Mouse Doll, you will need the following materials:
• 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. For best results, I recommend using needles one or two sizes smaller than commonly suggested for your yarn. Personally, I used US size 4 (3.5 mm) needles.
• Yarn in white, pink, and gray for the doll. I used **Himalaya Super Soft Yarn**, which is 100% acrylic; this yarn comes in a generous 200g / 328m skein perfect for various projects.
• Black yarn for the mouse's hair.
• Toy stuffing for a cuddly finish.
• A yarn needle for weaving in the ends.
• A stitch holder for convenient knitting.
• 2 plastic eyes to bring your Gray Mouse Doll to life.
All rows are worked in the round, providing a seamless finish that enhances the overall aesthetic of your creation. This mouse doll not only makes a great toy but could also serve as a charming decorative piece in your home.
