By Knotty Hooker Designs

This pattern is for a cute Lovey Blankie & Bonus Doll COMBO!
Simply make another doll and attach the legs to the bottom of it's body instead of to the front.
Perfect for the diaper bag, car ride, crib or whatever tickles your fancy.
It's smaller size makes it the perfect carry along companion for your little one.
