The Land Girl

The Land Girl

£4.20

The Land Girl is a crochet doll celebrating the remarkable women who worked on the land during wartime.

Her body is worked upwards from her feet to her head, while her arms + hair are made separately then sewn on. I create eyes with yarn (detailed instructions, photos and video support of this technique are provided) but small black safety eyes can also be used.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

To spot clean, gently wipe with a wet washcloth. To machine wash, place the doll in a pillowcase or wrap in a fabric that will not agitate the fibre (secure with rubber bands or string if required) and wash on the coolest + most gentle setting available. Remove from wrapping and allow to air dry completely.
