Miniver doll

This is my RP character, Miniver Cheevy. I got his name from a poem, but other than that, he's pretty much my creation, with some help from the folks I've RPed him with over the years.

This is a needle-felted doll. He is overall about 7 inches high, maybe a little less.

For those unfamiliar with this craft: Needle-felting, or hand-felting, is when you use a triangular, serrated needle to sculpt unspun, dyed wool into flat or 3-dimensional sculptures or pictures.

Being an arbitrary craft purist, I only use wool from sheep I have actually met in person. The materials for this doll came from two different farms, and were hand-dyed by the farmers using all-natural dyes.

My favourite part of this doll is his hair -- the curls are the sheep's natural curls.
