Introducing the Mouseling Hat pattern, the cutest way to add whimsical ears to your lovely doll and take her out to trick or treat. PLEASE NOTE. You are purchasing the pattern to create the hat only, not the overalls OR the doll. You are also not purchasing a finished product, this is merely a pattern. No refunds on pattern purchases, so please read thoroughly and any questions, feel free to ask. The Mouseling hat is a very handy bonnet, that helps keep your doll's hair off her face, keep her or him warm, whilst also providing a whimsical touch to their outfit. Pattern is made to fit Figlette Fig&me dolls in the 17"/23" size. Bonnet will fit up to a 13" head circumference. If your doll has a lot of hair you might need to enlarge the pattern pieces a bit. If using knitted fabric, you have the added bonus that it can stretch to accommodate slightly larger manes of hair. It is made with slightly felted merino, via using a repurposed sweater. You can use wool felt, sweater knit, thick woven wool or any other thick and cozy material you want. Beginner sewing experience is required, as long as you take things slow, read things through and pace yourself. The tutorial contains 12 pages, with step by step instruction plus pattern pieces, to create an unlined bonnet, with ribbon ties and large ears, which have needlefelted tufts of pink wool. Main Supplies needed: —Medium weight wool knitted fabric, a piece about 19"long by 10" wide. —Knitted ribbing, 16" long by 1 3/4" wide. (as mentioned, I repurposed a sweater, so that's where I got my materials). —Silk or cotton ribbon for the ties, 24" in length by 1/2" wide. —Little bits of wool roving in pink. I used two shades: light pink and a medium pink. —Needle-felting needles in medium gauge (I used 36) and a piece of foam to use as backing for your felting. Sewing implements such as: Scissors, pins, pencil or other marking tool, an iron, sewing gauge, etc. A tailor's ham comes in handy pressing the bonnet seams but it's not necessary. If you are unhappy with the format or instruction, have any questions at all, please feel free to email me.

I would like to share with you how we here Under Rainbows clean our Waldorf dolls. Waldorf dolls are stuffed with sheep's wool. It is a gorgeous material to work with and I love the qualities it brings to the doll. It brings weight: it is heavier than cotton and also synthetic stuffing which lends the doll itself a good weight. Wool holds warmth: imagine all of the body heat from the little person holding it being absorbed into the doll. Imagine how lovely it is to wake up in the night looking for your special and they are warm to the touch, as if they were living themselves. I also love that the wool holds smell. Eventually, after lots of love, the natural smell of your child will be absorbed into the dolls wool and the doll will smell very familiar and comforting. I know that smell for me was so important as a child and I needed my special to smell just right for it to be of true comfort. So, that's some of the why behind using wool in making a Waldorf doll, the only thing is, they take a little more caring for than a wipe-clean plastic dolly does. I really recommend that Waldorf dolls are spot cleaned for as long as possible. Spot cleaning means cleaning only those little bits that really need it rather than immersing the whole doll in water. This is because the wool stuffing can felt making the doll bumpy and hard. To spot clean you need some warm water, an old, soft tooth brush and some mild soap. I like using baby soap or shampoo or a castel soap. Wet the tooth brush and rub a tiny bit of soap onto it. Very gently, in small circles, brush the soapy toothbrush over the spots (dirty bits). Rinse the brush in clean warm (but not hot) water. Brush over the skin in one direction. Try to follow the knit of the fabric. Repeat this until all of the soap has been rinsed off. Leave your doll to dry flat and naturally. If the dolly is very dirty or has been saturated with...something ;-) then this is what we do to give them a full wash. **If you are washing a doll with hair I recommend that you keep the hair dry if at all possible, tie it up in a pony tail or invent a dolly shower cap, tie a small plastic bag over her hair perhaps.** Fill a basin with warm, not hot, water. Add a little soap; a very mild detergent or a pure soap or again baby shampoo or soap. Immerse the doll in the water and very gently wash. You can slowly allow the water to seep through the wool, but try not to agitate it too much. For the worst bits you can use the old toothbrush trick mentioned above. When the doll is clean refill the sink with warm clean water and repeat the process to rinse. While the doll is still wet make sure that her skin is still in the right place. Smooth the little face out, position the arms and legs to their natural place. Allow to dry naturally and flat until they are completely dry. To re-blush the cheeks (when the doll is completely dry) I warm my fingers up by rubbing them together. When they are good and warm I rub a red wax crayon over them. A little of the wax comes off onto my finger. I rub my finger in a gentle circular motion over the apple of the cheek. I repeat this until the cheek is as red as I desire it. It is a good way of doing it as it builds up layers of red and is very forgiving. And there they; are ready to be loved and played with again :-) Oh one last little tip: If smell/ warmth is very important to your child stuff the clean doll up your top next to your skin and wear it for as long as you can manage. This way some of your special smell and warmth will be absorbed into the doll taking some of the strangeness of the clean and newly washed smell away. I remember my poor mum walking around for hours with one or other of our specials up her vest. She'd be like an oven baking cakes, we'd take it out, have a cuddle...nope not ready yet and shove it back up there for a while longer. I hope this is of help, if you have any questions please do ask and I will do my best to answer them.
