WHAT YOU NEED

• Knit glove
• Needle
• Thread
• Yarn
• Scissors
• Rubber ball
• Buttons
• Mini pom-pom
• Rice
Time needed: Under 1 Hour

Step 1:
	Tuck the ring finger of the glove into the palm and stitch the hole closed.

Step 2:
	Fill the glove (all but the cuff) with rice and tie it off tightly with a piece of yarn.

Step 3:
	For the doll's head, fit a small rubber ball (or a Ping-Pong ball) into the cuff. Then, sew the glove closed to hold the ball in.

Step 4:
	Make a wig by loosely wrapping yarn around your hand about fifty times to create a think hank.

Step 5:
	Tie the strands together at one end of the hank, then cut the loop opposite the tie.

Step 6:
	Stitch the tied portion to the top of the doll's head.

Step 7:
	Finish up by stitching on button eyes and a tiny pom-pom nose.
