Mr Peabody Pony has just been posted overseas, across the Atlantic so I thought I would share my silly photo essay(!) on the making of him.

First there was the beautiful ball of pure wool, hand-dyed, hand-spun yarn bought at a Waldorf school fayre

Then came the knitting and sewing together

Now stuffed with pure wool filling and standing on his own four hooves

At last he is manifest in all his pea-green glory
