Traditional type ‘rag’ dolls with a whole wardrobe of clothes.

Meerkat

Meerkats

These lovable little animals are far too dignified to be fully dressed and wear just a few bits for fun that they found in the desert.  They come in two sizes, adult and junior and can be knitted in double knitting or 4 ply yarn.

Miniature Dolls


These are ideal as little dressing up dolls.  Their clothes are very easy to get on and off. The dolls are made in double knitting and their clothes in 4 ply.

Duncan the mini knitted bearDuncan, the mini bear


Tiny Duncan stands just 10 cm (4 inches). He is a bit fiddly to make so not for the faint hearted but could be a well loved travelling companion, off to see the world or a welcome addition to a bear lovers hug.
