Description
Grab your yarn and knitting needles and delve into this wonderful book from best-selling author, Sarah Keen. Sarah shows readers how to make 10 adorable topsy-turvy knitted dolls based on well-known and loved characters from fairy tales and nursery rhymes.
Each project has accessories or extra characters to knit, providing plenty of play potential for children choosing to recreate scenes from famous tales. Inside you will find beautifully photographed projects to make, including Alice in Wonderland and the Queen of Hearts with the White Rabbit; Little Red Riding Hood and the wolf in Granny's clothing, plus the basket of food for Granny; Sleeping Beauty awake and asleep, with her prince; a good fairy and bad fairy plus a magic wand.
They are ideal for encouraging imaginative play, and you can look forward to the many plays that will be put on by youngsters. Why not make up all the projects so that they can create their own fantastical tales using characters from different stories?
Author: Sarah Keen is passionate about knitting, finding it relaxing and therapeutic. She discovered her love of the craft at a very early age—her mother taught her to knit when she was just four years old and by the age of nine she was making jackets and jumpers.
Sarah now works as a freelance pattern designer and finds calculating rows and stitches challenging but fascinating. She is experienced in designing knitted toys for children and also enjoys writing patterns for charity. She has written four other titles for GMC, all in the same popular series: Knitted Wild Animals, Knitted Farm Animals, Knitted Noah's Ark and Knitted Nursery Rhymes.
