I'm slowly easing my way back to crafting. Today I've made the pattern for the rag doll. I could have downloaded it for free, but only if I had joined some obscure website. I decided against it. Perhaps I'm paranoid, but I don't like to download things I know nothing about onto my PC. Besides, the pattern is not that complicated. I draw it on checkered paper with the help of a ruler; and free-hand where the bent lines came. I've put together the paper parts, and the result looks promising. I hope it will work with the felt as well.

I've also selected the felts I intend to use, so I'm well prepared for the time when I'll actually start with the whole thing.
