Hello my dears, today I am going to share a wonderful gingerbread amigurumi doll pattern. Designed in the shape of a strawberry girl, this awesome gingerbread amigurumi pattern is completely free. Holly is a very sweet and friendly Gingerbread girl who loves almost everything under the sun, but most of all she enjoys good comany, music and baking. If given a choice, she would always choose to invite some friends over and have a good time. Which is why she has decided to organize this superfun Gingerbread party!
