I made this "Brandon" doll for my daughter's boyfriend, who is fond of going shirtless and wearing a knit hat. He also has abs, so that is what the "25" on his tummy is. I don't have any, so I had to work from memory, and well, my memory ain't that good....apparently. I learned that reference photos are my friend, from
Bob Canada's blog :)
I adapted this doll from this pattern:
