All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end. No circular knitting is required.
The sample is made with 4-ply yarn, however, you can use DK (8-ply) yarn with slightly larger needles. If you use DK and 3.5mm needles, they will be 2-3cm taller. You will probably need to provide 20g each if you are using DK yarn.
The bodies have cotton swabs inserted for extra stability, but it is optional. Cut shorter for Pinocchio if you are using them.
