deaf doll with hearing aids or cochlear implants - designed by you!
CUSTOM, HANDMADE DEAF DOLLS ~ Design your perfect mini-me for your favorite little (or big!) person, complete with ears and hearing devices just like theirs! These crocheted, plush dolls are about 10″ tall and handmade to order. You can customize nearly EVERYTHING about your doll: - skin color - ear type (including microtia!) - hearing device model & color (including hearing aids, cochlear implants, and bone conduction hearing aids) - eye type and color (one OR two colors for Waardenburg syndrome) - nose - mouth type & color - hair color, length, & style - clothes type & color - ILY embroidery on clothes This listing is for ONE 10" stuffed doll with the features of your choice. Dolls are made from acrylic yarn and polyester stuffing. A foam hair roller with a plastic core is stuffed inside the doll to help support the head. SAFETY NOTE: Plastic eyes are secured from the back with a plastic washer that is very sturdy, but safety cannot be guaranteed, especially for children who explore objects with their mouth. You know your child and can use your best judgement when making decisions about yarn eyes versus plastic eyes. Spot clean, love generously. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks to: - Kali from The Friendly Red Fox for the basic doll pattern. - Bethany Wenger from Greyhound Knits on Etsy for the hearing aid/behind-the-ear CI pattern. - June Gilbank from Planet June for the invaluable crochet tutorials.
