• Bonus dainty vintage topknot accessory pattern included
• Photo references and linked video tutorials throughout for body joining, eye shaping, ear tacking, and hair placement
• No-sew construction where parts are crocheted directly into the body, so there is no tedious assembly after the fact
• A snuggly, character-rich finish that reads handcrafted and intentional, not homemade

Additional Details

• Intermediate to complex.
