Once you begin using wool as a stuffing material, you won't want to go back to the polyester stuff. This wool has been cleaned and carded and is a pleasure to use. In dollmaking, it's the best stuffing available! It warms to the touch and can be shaped. It doesn't clump and packs nicely and firmly. It's also excellent for stuffing toys, for making quilts and it can be felted. It actually softens your hands as you work with it! I love it and won't use anything else.

Wool 2-ply Yarn Variety Pack
This assortment of 100% virgin wool yarn in six vibrant colors is especially made for knitting, crocheting or weaving on either of our Easy Weaver looms. I love the feel of this yarn!

Dollmaking Needles
These dollmaking needles are extra long to go through stuffed toy and doll parts. When creating a button-joint, for example, they easily glide through the torso of your doll while allowing you to be more accurate in your placement. This package comes with five needles in three sizes: one 3-3/4", two 3-1/4" and two 3".
$2.59 per pack of five needles

Curved Needle Set
Curved Needles make easy work out of closing side seams, attaching head to body and sewing yarn wig to head. It acts like a boomerang as it digs into the wool stuffing then automatically moves your stitch forward as it returns to the surface of your fabric. This creates a secure joining of doll or toy parts. This set comes with four needles: two 2" and two 2-1/2".
$2.89 per set of four needles

Nimble Thimble
The Nimble Thimble is a soft, leather thimble that conforms to the shape of your finger. It has a protective metal tip so the needle can be pushed through the thickest fabric. Excellent for handsewing, quilting and other needlework. I find it is the most comfortable thimble I've ever tried!
Comes one thimble per package.

Heavy Duty Craft Thread
This Heavy-Duty Craft Thread is extra strong to take the abuse of prolonged use. It is excellent thread to use in button joints or to attach head or other doll parts to body. It can also be tied around stuffed head to form the eyeline in Waldorf-style dolls. Anytime you need extra strength and durability, this thread is a good choice.

Wooden Beads in Flesh Tones
They are difficult to find, but we have them in every size and fleshtone color available! These wooden beads are perfect for creating little dolls. The smallest can be hands and feet, while the larger are the perfect sized heads. These are the same beads we use for our Little People and our Easy Fairy Dolls and other small doll kits. Since they are already stained and varnished in three colors, they can be used directly out of the package! Or they can be easily covered with fabric, such as we do when creating our own Fairy Dolls. Either way, they make your dollmaking quicker and easier!
Each package comes with approximately an equal number of each color: Very Fair, Brown and Tan. The number of beads per package varies, depending on size chosen (see list with description below).

Tiny Butterfly-Style Fairy Wings
These tiny wings are 1” across, which are just the right size for tiny fairy dolls! Cut off the antennae; glue them to the fairy’s back and she’s ready for flight! They are sold by the set of six wings in six different colors with glitter dots. Note: Due to small parts, these are recommended for use with children over age 3.
When you’re making a cotton-wrapped bendy doll, have you ever noticed that sometimes a 12mm bead is too small for the head, and a 16mm bead is too large? Well, these hard-to-find 14mm wooden beads might be just the right size for your creation (2” doll or shorter). They can be painted, covered with fabric or left natural. Also, they make great hands or feet for larger dolls or are perfect for jewelry.

Multi-Task Gripper Tool
5¾" long
I love my gripper tool because it has so many uses in the craft room! It's an excellent stuffing tool. The alligator teeth and locking handle hold on tight as you guide the wool into the limbs of your stuffed toy or doll. If you're having difficulty pulling a needle through thick fabrics, the grippers grab the needle securely to make an easy job of it. Also, this tool is wonderful for making jewelry! I use mine to open o-rings by locking the tiny ring in the gripper tool then use needle-nose pliers to pry it open. No more o-rings dropped and lost on the floor! It is made of stainless steel and measures 5¾" long. I'm sure you'll find many other uses for your Gripper Tool and fall in love with it, as I have.

Bulky Felting Yarn/Pencil Roving Assortment
100% wool, over 90 feet in total length
A Silver Penny exclusive!
This is the most ingenious product because it has multiple uses for felting. This 100% wool bulky yarn is very loosely spun and, used directly from the package, is wonderful for needle or wet felting. But untwist it slightly and it becomes pencil roving. Twist just a little tighter and the yarn becomes thinner for more precise placement and crisp lines. The uses of this product are varied – it is perfect for clothing embellishment, creating wool pictures, fashioning or outlining a needle felted motif, making felted jewelry, enhancing 3-D needle felted sculptures or use when only a small amount of color is needed. This assortment package contains a total of more than 29 yards of nine beautiful, vibrant colors (approximately 3¼ yards of each): Black, White, Orange Poppy, Tundra Green, Bermuda Blue, Red Rose, Garnet, Iris and Violet.
This bag contains about 5 ounces of carded and dyed fleece in two flesh tones: Beige and Fair. You'll receive approximately an equal amount of each, which is plenty to make many "Magic Wool" pictures, felted dolls or animals.
