It is specifically designed to fit in standard 18” doll clothes and shoes, which means your finished Ragamuffin can be made from items found in your closet and wear clothes from items found in your doll's closet! The head of the doll is built from the inside out, starting with a firmly wound ball of wool strips cut from old socks or sweaters and finished with a layer of T-shirt fabric that brings out the sweet little facial details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe doll's body is sewn from the same T-shirt fabric used for the face and firmly stuffed with polyester fiberfill or wool batting to create a cuddly little friend. The arms and legs are attached at the shoulders and hips and move easily for posing. Seamed joints can be added at the knees for additional movement. The head is designed to fit a 12” wig, the standard size for most 18” dolls, or you can follow the bonus instructions for making a yarn wig from an old wool sweater. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePDF sewing pattern by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.larougetdelisle.com\/collections\/thimbles-and-acorns\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.larougetdelisle.com\/collections\/thimbles-and-acorns\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThimbles and Acorns\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePattern #2020-18\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePDF Pattern for 18 inch Ragamuffin Doll\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Fabrics:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eHead Core ~ Thick wool or wool blend socks.
