Just finished another doll to add to our growing collection of patterns. This is Veronica, she is larger than my other dolls and She stands at 17 inches (43 cms).
The doll itself is knitted in DK yarn, hair is knitted in garter stitch and sewn in place. There is a choice of two hairstyles, ringlets or two buns and both are finished off with two cute little hair bows.
Her pretty dress is knitted in 4ply yarn and is removable. It fastens at the back with two buttons and a little bow at the waist band.
You can have lots of fun choosing the yarn and matching various colours. For the pink doll I used Bo Peep 4ply yarn which is a mottled pink and grey that knitted up beautifully and gave a very pretty effect.
For the doll with ringlets I used an old favourite of mine for the dress, King Cole Spot 4ply. It always looks good knitted up next to a contrasting colour.
Of course she can look just as good in a plain 4 ply yarn.
All pieces are knitted flat on two needles and sewn together. The pattern is a 23 page PDF document with row by row instructions and plenty of images to help with construction. The pattern can be purchased on Etsy, Ravelry and Lovecrafts
