I have been knitting dolls for the last month. The pattern comes from a book called "Knitted Dolls" by Arne and Carlos. Its a great book with lots of ideas and it inspired me to get creative. I modified some of the patterns, but what I love about these dolls are the knitted eyes. You can make them for toddlers because there are no buttons to choke on. I do have small buttons on the jumpers, but the sweaters are button free. The doll also has a tee and shorts or leggings knitted as the body. The book has lots of designer clothing and the illustrations are adorable. You knit the doll in the round and stuff it as you go along.
