Arni Handmade Ballerina Doll

Hand made in Toronto by @arni_dolls. We fell in love with these crocheted ballerinas and wanted to share them with our CDC families while supporting a local maker. They're just for fun — a sweet keepsake for a dancer, a little sister, or the ballet lover in your life.

Each doll is stitched entirely by hand, from her pointe shoes to her tutu, and stands about 12 inches tall. Choose from five designs:

• Clara — short brown hair, dusty-rose wrap top and a white tutu, with ribboned pink slippers.
• Odette — soft blonde hair swept into a bun with a rosy flower, mauve wrap and white tutu.
• Giselle — long flowing dark hair, dreamy closed eyes and a blush-pink leotard and tutu, with pink pointe shoes laced to the knee.
• Aurora — sunny blonde bob with a pink bow, dusty-pink wrap top and a white tutu.
• Sugar Plum — long cotton-candy pink hair, peaceful closed eyes and a peach leotard and tutu, with matching pointe shoes.

Only 25 dolls are available in this first run, across all five designs — once they're gone, they're gone. Because every doll is made by hand to order, they take a while to make. Orders from this first batch of 25 will be ready for pickup in time for Christmas.
