Pearl the Mermaid

Pearl the Mermaid doll is knitted in stockinette stitch and made from four pieces (body, 2 arms and a bikini) and seamed together. The hair is made from lengths of White yarn that are each knotted onto the top of the head after making up. You could use a smaller needle size and DK yarn with this pattern to make a smaller doll. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, Pearl is knitted in acrylic aran yarns (worsted/10 ply) on single pointed needles (not in the round). For confident beginners and above, other techniques used include casting on and off, knits, purls, increases and decreases, and seaming to finish.
