The body, other than the arms, is knitted from the bottom of the feet to the top of the head in one piece, stuffing and creasing as you go. As the knitting progresses on the double-pointed needles, the little body will rotate, as if dancing its way into creation. The arms are knitted separately and sewn on at the last.
