I've been making these little comfort dolls for weeks now. They're easy, fun and quick to make on my Addi 22 hook knitting machine.

There are a million video's on youtube to teach you to use a knitting machine. (I'll link a few at the end of this post).
Here's the Pattern for these little dolls.
On a circular loom or knitting machine knit the following rows.
8 Rows for the shoes
3 Rows for the socks
15 Rows for the pants (or legs)
13 Rows for the shirt
11 Rows for the face
8 Rows for the hat or hair

| Freshly knitted |
 |
| Stretched knitting |
 |
| Top gathered |
 |
| Stuffing added |
 |
| Top and bottom gathered |
 |
| Legs and arms stitched |
 |
| Neck gathers added |
 |
| Eye painted with puff paint |
Add any embellishments you like. Shirts, hair or facial features.
Be creative!!

| To add a shirt, I surface crochet a base layer. |
All of these dolls are made with exactly the same pattern.
The only differences are color and embellishments!

These are absolutely wonderful! What a creative and wonderful craft. And a great way to use up odds and ends yarn.
