TUTORIAL VIDEO
This is the tutorial video of knitting pattern "Halloween clown doll Peter".
In this video, I will show you step by step how to embroider the halloween smile using black embroidery thread and a tapestry needle.
The embroidery technique is very simple and beginner-friendly. The trickiest part of the embroidery is to make sure that the smile is symmetrical and centered on the doll's face. You can adjust the size and shape of the smile according to your preference and the size of your doll. You can also add more or less teeth and stitches as you like.
