In this sweet vintage pattern the body of the toy is knitted and the clothes knitted afterwards and put on.

To keep the toy baby safe and slightly more modern, embroider eyes instead of sticking them on as was done in the reference picture.

The 1987 Your Family issue attributes this to Mary Goddard.
