The Little Sister Doll features no-sew, attach-as-you-go limbs!* The arms & legs are made first so they can be added to the body as you go. This technique is easy to learn & faster than sewing them on!
*Sister Doll eBooks have not been updated with attach-as-you-go limbs (yet)
Check out my "Attach As You Go" post for a video tutorial & written instructions!

Yarn :
The following brands are ones that I have used for these dolls. Most worsted weight yarn should work however you might need to adjust your hook size. For best sizing, whichever yarn you use I recommend sticking with the same brand for all parts of your doll (besides hair). |

- Red Heart Super Saver
- Bernat Super Value
- Loops & Threads Colorwheel
- Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn
- Hobby Lobby I Love This Cotton (3.5mm hook)

For hair I recommend using a soft yarn such as Caron Simply Soft or HL I Love This Yarn. Or try Lion Brand Homespun for curly hair like Susie's!
