1994 Beatrix Potter Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle-Duck & Jeremy Fisher knitted dolls

1994 Beatrix Potter Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle-Duck & Jeremy Fisher knitted dolls.

The pattern creates knitted, stuffed dolls of the three iconic Beatrix Potter characters. They are designed in a relatively simple, classic style, aiming for a recognizable representation rather than hyper-realistic detail. The dolls are likely intended for intermediate knitters, given the shaping and color changes involved.

Specific Character Details & Pattern Features:

  • Peter Rabbit:
    • Body: Knit primarily in a light brown or beige yarn to represent his fur.
    • Jacket: His signature blue jacket is knit separately and seamed onto the body. It likely features some shaping to create the collar and possibly button details (either knit in or added with embroidery/buttons).
    • The pattern has white feet and tummy.
    • Features: Embroidered facial features (eyes, nose, whiskers) are used to create his expression. The ears are likely knit separately and sewn on.
  • Jemima Puddle-Duck:
    • Body: Primarily knit in white yarn.
    • Bonnet: Her distinctive bonnet is likely knit in blue, possibly with a textured stitch (like a rib or seed stitch) to add detail. It will be shaped to fit her head and tied under the chin.
    • She also has a shawl, probably knit in pink.
    • Features: Again, embroidered features create her face. The beak is likely knit separately, possibly in a yellowish or orange yarn, and shaped before being attached.
  • Jeremy Fisher:
    • Body: Knit in various shades of green to represent his frog skin. The pattern may use color changes or textured stitches to suggest the variations in his skin tone.
    • He has a red jacket and light colored vest.
    • Limbs: The legs and arms are likely knit separately and shaped to give them a frog-like appearance.
    • Features: Embroidered eyes and mouth.
