Dammit Doll

Cut:  Cut out pattern below from fabric pertaining to the theme, leaving 1/4" seam allowance around it.  (I didn't have room on printable area for this!) Sew:  With right sides together, sew 1/4" seam leaving an opening at side or top of head to turn.  Clip neck, arm pits and crotch.  Turn doll. Stuff:  Stuff with polyester fiberfill.  Whipstitch opening shut. Hair:  Wind rug yarn several times around four fingers (or about 3" of cardboard).  Slide off, tie and knot around the center with a short piece of rug yarn.  Make about five of these loopy bundles.  With matching thread, hand stitch them securely along the top head seam of doll. Face:  Cut two ovals for face from solid fabric.  (Use oval on pattern.)  Sew them together with 1/8" seam.  Do not turn unless fabric tends to ravel bad.   Glue oval to face.  Glue large wiggly eyes to face.  Draw a squiggly line for mouth using a black Sharpie pen. Finishing:  Add a bow to neck.  Print poems here. Tip: Use washable glue so that you can wash when needed!  Instead of turning, cut out with pinking sheers and sew wrong sides together...you could possibly even glue this way.  Or if you don't sew, buy a muslin finished doll and just add poem. Poems:  Add a poem. Print Computer Dammit Doll 6-up. Print Sports Dammit Doll 6-up. Print Fishing Dammit Doll 6-up.

Crochet Spring Ruana Lion Brand® Vanna's Glamour® GAUGE: 12 sts + 8 rows = 4 in. (10 cm) in V-st Lace pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
