I live in UK, and after adjusting your crochet terms to UK ones, I am thoroughly enjoying making the Harry Potter figures. Any chance that you could do a Sirius Black?
Many thanks
Thanks, Janet! I will add Sirius to my list
I love this. I am 12 and am going to make this for my 8 year old cousin . You are actually one of the best people ever !! . Thank you so much !!
Thank you so much 😊 and so awesome of you to make this for your little cousin
I want to make this doll, but on the body, Rows 28-29 are missing. What is to be done here?
Thank you
Sorry, the rows were misnumbered. I’ve fixed them up now. Thanks for letting me know 😊
Thank you so much for doing these dolls! I have been a fan of Harry’s since the books first were published in the US & my nephew of 10 introduced me to everyone! I have a daughter-in-law who requested Harry & friends for her birthday & Christmas so this will “fit the bill” for years to come! Any chance of a Neville Longbottom to go with Luna? Or Miss Ginny Weasley for Harry?
Thank you again!
Do you stuff the arms at all? There is no instructions to do so. Do they have to be limp to put in the cloak?
I don’t stuff them, but you could stuff them a little if you wanted to
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I fooled around with stuffing them and just stuffing them a little. When I stuffed them it looked like the boy in the Christmas Story who couldn’t put his arms down, L O L. So I went with just a little stuffing.
i plan on creating all your designs! i would love to see a voldemort, umbridge, hedwig and maybe some creatures like picket and a cornish pixie.
I have a Voldemort pattern that will be ready to go up this weekend and I will add those others to my list. Thanks!
and a niffler!
