Anna & Birte

These are my latest babes: Anna gets bored when I take too many photos of her.
Birte doesn't mind at all.
And they're best friends, of course.

I love Anna's hair. What yarn did you use? I'm assuming you unraveled it.

Thanks for the nice comments :)
For Anna's hair I used two strands of wool yarn (two shades of red). I knitted a piece, pressed with my steam iron and unraveled.

Thanks for your nice comments! I used a Norwegian yarn, Gjestal Føn for Anna's body. It's a cotton/bamboo yarn. Very soft!
