Baby knitting experts, I need your advice!
A friend of mine is pregnant, and asked if I could possibly do a new version of this old doll someone made for her when she was a baby.
Absolutely, happy to!
Except I have no idea what kind of yarn is both baby-friendly and also will last for 40 years like this one has.
I can probably make up a pattern, but if anyone knows one similar so I don’t have to that would also be amazing.
Pointers very welcome, thank you all!

I don’t know the answer, passing on the question to my followers. :)
Just one idea: Since it is for a baby, it should(?) be made of cotton, so it can be washed in a better way.
There are different cotton yarn qualities, some of the more expensive ones probably last must longer, but I am not an expert. :)
@khzimmer2 @knitting Thank you! Cotton was my first thought too but I did worry about longevity, might be worth doing some research there and see if it’s a solved problem.
Hmm, this baby stuff is a whole new world to me can you tell? 😆

:) I wish you luck when researching the topic – and a lot of joy when making this sweet doll. 🌞
