Gingerbread Doll Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

Gingerbread Doll Crochet Pattern
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

This Little doll is super easy. It is perfect for your 
Christmas and Holiday decorations,
 and super  fun to play with.
It can be a Gingerbread Boy or Girl!
Would this little doll look so sweet 
peeking out of  a Christmas Stocking?
And Because it is really easy and fast to make,
 you will want to make a bunch of them
 This doll would also make a great snowman, 
or Santa. Just change the colors of yarn.
I think Rosie likes it, too!
She sure loves her stuffies.
