Ladybug Fairy Hoods are coming soon!

You may be familiar with the Ladybug Fairy hood that I've worn in some of the promotional photos. Well they are coming back to the shop very soon!
There are 4 different new black and red patchy variations;
1. is a thick, dense, wild, Furry, woolly, long hair, heavy weight wool (seen at the top of image 1 to the left)
2. is a dense, thick, short hair, medium-heavy weight wool (seen at the bottom of image 1 to the left)


3. is a lighter furry, long hair, still woolly and warm, will also hold up well over hard wear, wool (seen at the top of image 2 to the left)
4. is a fuzzy, short hair, flexible lighter weight wool (seen at the bottom of image 2).

I'll be trimming these lovely red and black hoods in these blacks. The top one is a furry, wild, Long hair wool. The bottom one is a shorter hair, fuzzy wool.


This color combo is near and dear to my heart and I'm very glad to be working with it again! My hope is that it will find happy heads to turn into Ladybug Fairies!
