kokeshi love

I have a small collection of Japanese wooden Kokeshi dolls, so when I saw this pattern from a local crochet designer, Lisa from Holland Designs I had to make some for miss E. So far I've only made the one above but I plan to make a few more to pop in her christmas stocking. Lisa also designs lovely baby shoes and slippers too, I've found her patterns are really easy to follow.
