Hello Barbara
I really love how your dolls turned out. I have a quick question, when I was following your instructions which were very clear :-). My doll was starting to turn out huge and I was using the correct hook size? Help!!!!
The size of the toy also depends on yarn weight.
I love these!
Where do you get your doll hair from? I’m usually reluctant to make female dolls as i don’t like yarn hair but these are gorgeous!
