Cute Chinese New year gift. The toy is knitted in the round and that is why the pattern is recommended for Advanced Beginner Knitters. Materials needed

• 4 double-pointed needles size US 2 (3 mm). • Cream and pink colored yarns for doll. I used Bernat Satin yarn / 100% Acrylic; 100 gr (3.5oz) – 182m (199yds)./ Yarn weight - Worsted /10-Ply • Toy stuffing • Yarn needle • Stitch holder • Black Plastic eyes (6 mm) • Blue Plastic eyes (8 mm) • Dark Brown yarn for hair

All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams. For an on-line tutorial of how I start knitting my toys using a crochet hook cast on from the middle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60sPwLC-3ZY http://denizastoysjoys.blogspot.com/2013/12/how-i-start-to-knit-my-toys-cast-on.html
