"Even if you've never made a doll before, you can create a lovable character from the world's folklore and the stories of Hans Christian Andersen and the Brothers Grimm. And you can do it in a single day! Perfect for beginners as well as experienced crafters, these 30 adorable projects recapture the magic of fairy tales and legends with a gallery of personalities that includes Cinderella and Prince Charming, Hansel and Gretel, The Little Mermaid, King Arthur and Queen Guinevere, Snow White, Robin Hood and Maid Marian, and many others. Best of all, you don't need any previous experience with knitting, sewing, or crocheting-all you need is yarn and your own two hands. This unique new craft consists simply of wrapping yarn around itself. No plastic, wood, or metal base is involved; the cuddly dolls are 100% yarn. Each project features simple instructions accompanied by color photographs that illustrate every step of the procedure. The only hard part is choosing a character, so you might just have to make them all!"-- |
