Molly Bear is knitted from hand dyed alpaca. Her dress is also made from a very special skein of yarn, mulberry silk. This is the first time I have knitted in silk and I would have to say it was amazing. Such a delight to work with something so luxurious and special.
Her little basket is made from linen and finished with a vintage millinery flower and antique lace and shell buttons. And of course she has a wee china tea set to take to her picnic, perfect for tea and cake under the trees in the woods.
Inside her basket is a tiny doily. I crocheted it from very special vintage cotton, so fine and delicate.
Molly Bear's cloche hat is also made of linen. It is finshed with a beautiful piece of antique lace, a matching 1940's vintage millinery flower and an antique button.
Arrabella's Molly Bear popped over to join the fun, I think she felt she was missing out.
Good luck to all who enter!!!
