Waldorf-Inspired 16-Inch Dressable Doll PDF Pattern  

Picture
At 16 inches tall, this is the classic, huggable Waldorf play doll. 

Two doll patterns in one! Choose either of 2 easy traditional construction techniques: the one-piece body with straight legs, or the sewn-in legs with more natural shaping. Arms may be sewn-on or button jointed. Legs are hinge-jointed.

Choose from 2 hair styles. Go long and loose, with ultra-easy, no-crochet construction. Instructions for a clever and low-cost adjustable hair loom are also included. For crochet fans, directions are given for a quick loop-stitched curly cap.

Dress your doll in a quick and easy 2-piece outfit, with short pants and sleeveless top. It's a cut play outfit, or pajamas.  Click HERE for additional clothing patterns.
