What do you get when you mix a natural birth advocate with a fiber artist in a manic phase? Why, this crocheted doll, that's what.
Billed as a childbirth education doll, she and her newborn son (that's him in the probably NSFW picture at the end of this post, popping out between her legs) are anatomically correct.
In fact, his belly button really is a button, which secures the carefully looped umbilical cord (itself connected to a detachable placenta!).
A pattern for this award-winning doll -- "Most Creative" at the 2006 Foster Old Home Days fair, Foster, RI and "Best in Show" at the 2006 Woodstock Fair, Woodstock, CT -- is available for $14.89 from CozyColeman's Etsy shop.
Other embellishments include earrings, a wedding ring and a necklace. Not that you're looking at any of that. Instructions include patterns for doll/mom maternity clothes.
Hey, I think I want one of these!
