More Forest Friends
Construction More Forest Friends are delightful and charming dolls that are knit in one cohesive piece from the bottom up. The body of each doll can be crafted flat on straight needles and then seamed together, or alternatively, you can knit in the round using double-pointed needles (dpns) for a seamless finish. After knitting, simple sewing techniques are employed to shape the arms and legs, giving your Forest Friends their unique and adorable features. To add extra character and detail, duplicate stitch is used for embellishments, making each doll truly one-of-a-kind. Fast and fun to knit, these dolls are thoughtfully designed to be sturdy and safe, making them perfect for even the littlest hands to easily hold and cuddle. Their charming design and solid construction ensure they will be cherished for years to come.
Gauge Exact gauge is not crucial for this project; however, we recommend selecting a needle that is 2 or 3 sizes smaller than what is suggested on your yarn’s ball band. This will help you to create a dense, tightly-knit fabric that effectively hides the stuffing, enhancing the durability and cozy feel of your More Forest Friends. With these knitting patterns, you'll not only enjoy a creative knitting experience but also create treasured toys that inspire imaginative play.
