Even though a little bit shy, Maggie dashes to sample the berries in a neighbor's yard.
She is crocheted in rounds in a continuous spiral and her legs rotate so you can position her standing, sitting or sleeping. The digital pattern PDF download comes with visual aids and links to video tutorials for stitches and techniques to help you complete the project.
