Seraphina the Mermaid
This project started when I bought some beautiful yarn, but when I tried to knit with it,
it was too rough on the hands. I decided (as you do!) that it would make good mermaid hair, and designed this little mermaid to wear the yarn.
I got as far as making the body, then the project stalled, and has sat, armless and hairless, on the shelf for two whole years!
Finally, glamourpuss took charge, and bullied me (coaxed me?) into finishing it off this afternoon, and has now named her Seraphina and taken possession of her.
Glamourpuss also designed the bikini, stuffed the arms, and knotted some of the hair strands.

She is fabulous! And how wonderful is that hair!
I love the doll and agree that the wool is just perfect for her hair!
