Introducing Bella the Ballerina. Bella is 25 cm tall. Most pieces are knitted flat (back and forth) on a pair of straight single-pointed knitting needles. The ballet slipper straps are a single crochet chain, but if you don’t know how to crochet you could tie a length of yarn around the legs instead. To knit your own doll you just need to use 4 stitches; knit, purl, a kfb increase and k2tog decrease. You will also need to cast on and off, knit stripes, and sew seams.
Contains:
- Instructions for making the ballerina and photos.
- A materials list and recommended yarns.
- The pattern is 4 pages and written in English.
- Measurements are in metric.
