Her eyes are smiling!
I have tried several times to stitch a smile but I just haven't been able to get the expression right... I will keep trying...
I added bunches and bobbles (I couldn't get decent photos of them!)
She's taller than the pattern suggests at 14.5". I used acrylic yarn and I think my knitting was a bit loose in parts... her legs are quite chunky and the stitches at the neck are quite open.
I think she turned out really well! I would highly recommend Ysolda Teague's pattern from Whimsical Little Knits.

Fiona, thank you for visiting and leaving a comment on my blog. I use a long fly stitch with a short 'stalk' to put the smile on my Stanley dolls:
