I have knitted several of these dolls, which have been sent to a hospital where some patients suffer from dementia. They bring great comfort. The pattern is easy to follow and I vary the colours according to the wool available to me. The streamlined shape means the are safe for any age. I have used other patterns, such as the leprechaun, but I like the doll best.

I rarely find such well written patterns that are so much fun to knit basic knitting skills are all that are needed and this pattern is a definite confidence builder. I have been knitting for years but never did like making toys because mine came out awful...that is till now with KBP patterns the only way you can go wrong is to not buy and knit them!
