I’ll start with the happy part-a pic of the finished carrier. Now I can tell you all about the attempts at making what I thought was going to be a simple sling. I mean look at it, it looks simple to me.
So, I got bullied by my daughter’s dog while I was trying to type up this blog post. Okay, maybe bullied is too strong a word. I’ll say encouraged. She likes it when I come out with her, even though she can come outside any time she wants. I have to admit it’s much better […]
I finished his ears and couldn’t wait to share. I’ve been walking around the house holding him like a baby. It’s almost a shame I have to make him a little outfit. I kinda just want to make him a little diaper. His head wobbles a little because the head is heavier, but it’s perfect […]
Is anyone surprised? I didn’t think so. I was so done with making Baby Yodas. In fact, I was so done, I gave my personal and large doll to one of my sisters so I wouldn’t have to make another one. But then, a few months had passed, and my daughter asked if I was […]
The doll is finished and delivered. It didn’t have far to go, just down the hall. But first, the doll demanded a photo shoot. Kinda reminded me of my husband. 😊 My hubby wanted his own Mini Me in his music persona. He creates music and wanted a doll he could photograph as a stand-in […]

It’s wonderful how in the beginning he looked like yarn—and seeing how he’s taking shape~~~and then the finished sassy, all attitude, ready to take on the world dude…is amazing!

They never look like much in the beginning, do they? I always have a little doubt that it won’t turn out how I see it shaping in my head. I’ve had some that don’t, but it feels great when they do. 🙂

Love this project. May I ask, how did you make his legs pose-able? Did you use a wire frame?

Thank you! Thanks for taking a look. No wire frame. I’m not very familiar with wire frames. I used Tunisian crochet which makes the cloth a little ticker. I stuffed the dolled with cloth (instead of poly fill), which also made the legs a little firmer but still flexible. I can move his arms and legs, but they aren’t pose-able in the sense you are asking.
