This adorable little guy is named Spunky because of his eager little face! Maybe it's the way his ears tilt forward or his eyes are so wide open, but whatever the cause, the moment he slipped off my sisters needles, she had to laugh and say, “well look how eager this little face is!”
Spunky stands about 7″ tall and around 8″ long. He's firm enough to stand on her own, and made securely enough to withstand rowdy play, while being soft and squishy enough for nap time!
STOCK PHOTOS. The Spunky shown has sold–we will make him again the same way, but may have subtle differences as with all things handmade.
All his pieces are securely stitched on, making him a safe, fun, little friend for your child! Simple Waldorf inspired features make for more imaginative, creative, child play.

All natural: Spunky is knit out of 100% soft Peruvian Highland wool, and is stuffed with clean, fluffy wool from our very own flock of sheep! 🙂 (To see the wool stuffing process, check out the bottom picture: 1. First cuddle the soft sheepie to reassure em. 😉 2. Then shear the wool off their back. 3. Next, carefully wash the wool several times. 4. Stuff the clean, fluffy wool into knitted body to bring the life into the toy. 5. Finally: let the baby play and snuggle to his/her heart's content! 🙂
Wool is the perfect choice for toys, because it warms up against the body heat of the child's little hands and is slightly heavier, making the toy feel all the more life like. I've already noticed my little sister seems to really prefer these toys over previous polyester-filled ones that I've made her. Wool also repels dust and mites and is very healthy, clean and natural feeling; soft and warm.
Hand wash with care! Swish in warm soapy water, rinse gently and squeeze out the water. Lay flat to dry.
