Lovely idea Gemini7892
I am signing up to Revelry for the patterns.
This will keep us all busy and be a boon for later for charity

Do you make them for a particular charity/charities, Gemini?

Glad you like them. Please post a pic if you make one.

They look very cute

Thank you, they would be good as a charity project

These are adorable! I bet there are lonely people who would love those, something to cuddle. Most people feel lonely from time to time

I mentioned Comfort Dolls on another thread and wondered if it would be something knitters could share on here ?
You only have to know how to make a rectangle of 32 sts and about 50 rows. Easy for beginners too. I’d like to see what other knitters come up with. Would you like to make one and post a pic on here ?
These dolls were an idea by a Canadian woman who started making them for charity. Depending on the colours you use ( scraps ) you can make teddies , Santa , snowmen etc.
Something to take your mind off the present ?
There’s a free pattern on the internet. Ravelry has some too. Just google them. ?
