Opis

Nathalie's company is a donating partner of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) which provides emergency birth kits and she would like to support this charity through the book. Representation matters when it comes to dolls - every child should be able to see themselves reflected in a doll and research shows this has a positive impact on children's self esteem. This collection of crochet patterns for dolls with different skin tones, hair types, body shapes and abilities will allow you to make a doll to represent everyone.
