Flora
Doll, from Maggie Pace's Pick Up Sticks designs, is full of fun, fast knitting techniques if you like to switch things
up. Her body and crinoline are knit separately and felted together. Flora
is finished by adding her sweet features and dollop of hair on top. Flora
is a little knitter herself, shown also with her little knitting bag and
needles. (Buy Flora's Furnishings pattern to dress her up with her
accessories). If you are new
to felting and want the low-down or
just some tips, I've got oodles of info for you.
