yarn dolls
Woven toy people
Yarn dolls are simple figures made by wrapping and tying yarn, typically without sewing or stuffing.
The basic form uses bundled yarn cinched at points to suggest a head, body, and limbs.
They range from folk craft traditions to children's projects: We made yarn dolls at summer camp.
The technique produces figures with a characteristically soft, fibrous texture.
