Stuff the doll as you go, being careful not to overfill, especially at joints and the neck.
Keep a consistent stitch tension throughout for an even appearance.
Use stitch markers at the start of rounds to help with counting and keeping facial features and joins symmetrical.
When changing yarn colors, always pull through the new color on the final yarn-over of the last stitch of the old color.
Insert the straw for neck support before closing the head, ensuring stability to prevent flopping.
