Thomas, another waldorf boy doll

He’s for sale over at Etsy.

Alyse

I have been working on this doll today. I am delighted with her hair because it can be combed with a large toothed comb, It is wool that I knitted up, boiled, dried and then unravelled to get the wave in it. I have looked at the wool for several days after I had finished [...]
