HEATHER GIBBS has wowed us with her keepsake doll and<br />
interchangeable outfits. She’s a friend for life at Let’s Get Crafting HQ,<br />
and we’re sure she’ll be the same for a little’un that you know. Many<br />
parts of this pattern are worked without joining in continuous rounds, so<br />
be sure to place a stitch marker in the top of the first stitch to clearly<br />
show the start of the round.<br />

HEATHER’S ADVICE!<br />
She says: “Experiment with the<br />
character’s features. It’s the<br />
positioning and style of eyes, a<br />
nose and mouth that breathe life<br />
into what you’ve made”<br />
