Baby Bee is a bunting style doll inspired by the waldorf heavy baby. I adore heavy babies and have a couple in my house, I thought why shouldn’t knitters make them too!

Simple and sweet, lightly weighted, and machine washable. Perfect for a new baby, toddler, or child - boy or girl!

She’s huggable and squishy, with a bit of weight in her sack bottom for a sensory feel.

Bee is worked in the round, with minimal seaming and a wee bit of color work for accent.
