Method for wool dolls
Cut a rectangle of cardboard of 12 × 18 cm for winding wool. Now wrapped a strand of yarn (on the side of 18 cm) to give about 75 rev.
Ata coil you formed with a piece of wool the same color and then remove the cardboard. That will be the top of the head. A couple of inches lower, tie again, but the entire coil, forming the neck of the doll. As the photo shows.
Form a smaller coil , side 12 cm and with fewer turns. These are the arms of your doll wool. Tie them as photo shown, leaving an inch reel before fastening.
Open the body of the doll and introduces the arms in the center. Tie the large coil under the arms to hold them tight.
Cuts the free end of the coil and separated into two equal clusters to form legs. Ata feet as shown in the picture. Ready the body.
We now turn to the details. Shape your hair with another little bundle of wool color that you like. Grab the top of the head. Once dry, cut the bangs.
To make the face, cut a rectangle of felt like skin and paste on the face of the doll color. Paint her eyes and mouth with fine permanent marker.
The clothing is similar to the way side. Cut a rectangle of felt and make him spend two openings for the arms. I hit on the body of the doll and can add some detail as buttons, collar, etc..
You got your first doll list, you can now make as many as you want and start a family of woolen dolls to decorate your home or give to someone you love very much.
