40TH ANNIVESARY HELLO KITTY
This is a Hello Kitty doll that I made for my daughter. This is an adaptation of a plush Hello Kitty that was given the fist 25,000 fans that entered the 2014 Hello Kitty Con in Los Angeles, CA. This is the next in a series of Hello Kitty dolls that I have a plan to make. My daughter is a huge Hello Kitty fan.
In order to do the cartoon Hello Kitty of the 40th Anniversary Hello Kitty that is on the overalls, I printed a wallet size copy of the logo for the 2014 Hello Kitty Con.

Worsted weight yarn: White, yellow, blue, red, brown, green, black, and gold.
