To make a baby doll from kapron pantyhose with your own hands fit:

• Nylon tights or socks that have a fairly solid foundation. When choosing a material, it is necessary to give preference to complex weaving so that at the most inopportune moment arrows do not follow it.
• The choice of color must be approached carefully. It is mainly recommended to use flesh, white or light pink colors. However, if you want to make baby dolls from nylon tights that look like mulattos or blacks, then brown or black socks or tights can be used as the color of the material.

Doll from nylon tights

For the manufacture of baby dolls, it is necessary to prepare the following materials in advance:

• guipure material for vest;
• white knitted fabric from which we will make panties and socks;

How to make a baby doll from nylon tights with your own hands:

1. We select the required sock or the trimmed part of the tights, stuff them with a synthetic winterizer or some other filler.
2. For convenience, we make temporary fastening in the upper part of the stuffed sock.
3. After that we create the head. To do this, applying stitches in a circle, we separate the torso from the head - in this part we tighten the sock well.
4. Then, at the central point of the torso, we make out the navel, using a needle and thread. After - we fix the thread and display it in the lower part of the sock.
5. On the other hand of the decorated torso we make one large stitch, which has the shape of a constriction, thus we make out the doll-baby doll ass.
6. Using a small piece of filler, we roll up the nose in the form of a ball, which is placed in the area of ​​the manufactured face.
7. Now, the fixed fastener in the upper part of the sock is removed, after which it is necessary to apply small stitches, sew the product, tighten and fasten the thread so that it does not run away.
8. After the procedure, the unnecessary part of the nylon material should be very carefully cut.
9. After that, we proceed to the design of the ears. To do this, we make several stitches in the inner part of the head, then we remove the needle in the intended place where the future ear will be located, slightly tightening the thread, making small stitches, we make a constriction on both sides of the head. We fix the thread and cut it.
10. To place the eyes of a baby doll from nylon tights with our own hands, we use two black beads. At the same time we carry out tightening of the corners of the mouth. To do this, we carry out phased actions:
    • At the point of the corner of the mouth, you need to prick the needle with thread and bring it to the location of the eye.
    • Put the bead on the needle and fix it well.
    • Without tearing the thread, make a needle puncture in the area of ​​the second eye, put on the second bead and lock it again.
    • Withdraw the needle at the location of the second corner of the mouth. Lock the thread so that it does not come out.
11. For embroidery of eyelashes and eyebrows we use threads of black or brown color.
12. Now we make out a smiling mouth. To do this, with a needle with a thread of bright red color from the corner of the mouth on one side, we make a broach to the other corner.
13. Take the second sock. For certain patterns, we make legs and handles from it. Using a filler, we form sausages, which we wrap in nylon material and sew them with neat stitches. Sew the manufactured legs to the decorated torso.
14. Using guipure fabric, we create a pattern of sleeves, in the finished form we sew them on the manufactured handles.
15. From the exact same fabric we cut out the base of the future baby's undershirt, put it on the doll-baby doll and rather tightly fasten around the neck. Sew the handles that are dressed in sleeves on top of the manufactured vest.
16. From white knitwear we make panties, tie them with a blue thread, using a knitting hook.
17. After that we make hair. To do this, we use threads of thick yarn, which with a knitting hook we make into a wig and sew to the head of our sweetie.
18. From the white knitwear we cut out the socks, which must also be crocheted.
19. And the very last touch that gives a twist to our product. On the cheeks of the made doll from kapron material we apply gentle blush.

A wonderful baby doll is ready to delight kids with its appearance!
