A little brother for Florence

Felted in the washing machine for longer this time to make him smaller plus I thought I read somewhere that undyed/bleached wool didn’t felt as easily - not sure if that’s true or not but I decided to err on the side of caution and give him a good long thwump in the washing machine just in case. Photo shows him partially stuffed and un-put-together.

Baby Arthur is now drying out on a sunny windowsill. Arthur definitely needs a pale blue set of dungarees and a cardi, possibly a fairisle one if I’m feeling in the mood. (Cardi made. Stripes not fairisle as I’m not that bored yet)

Notes::
I used watercolour pencils to add shaded details to the face, ears and paws::used 8mm glass eyes::a pencil to push the stuffing in.
