    Knit Wits


    Turn a glove into a palm-size pal.

    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.
