FAQ

How do you put a mouth on a knitted doll?

Knitting our doll’s mouth, nose, or eyes can make a tricky part, especially for beginners. How can you do it to get satisfying results and a beautiful smile for your doll? The best way to deal with this is to use pins for marking.

First, insert the needle at the open part of the head and bring it out where its smile should start. Then insert the needle where the smile will end and bring it out at the open part of the head. Finally, pull the yarn though. Don’t make it too tight for a slight curve to get the smile, and done!

Is it easier to knit or crochet a doll?
