Description
Arlo is a goose made from felted wool, white from the top of his long neck to the tip of his tail, and dressed for Christmas in a Santa hat with a fluffy trim, a knitted scarf with a snowflake pattern and a little wreath dotted with berries, held in his wings. His beak and feet are felted too, his eyes are small and round, and a string loop at the top lets him hang. He is 22cm tall, 12cm wide and 6cm long, which makes him a good deal larger than a bauble and easy to pick out on a full tree.
Hang him on the Christmas tree at eye level, where his long neck and scarf can be seen properly, or from a window catch, a door handle, a wall hook or a garland along the mantelpiece. At 0.02KG he weighs next to nothing, so even a slender branch will carry him without bending low. He suits anyone who likes Christmas decorations with a bit of character and humour, and he makes a cheerful small gift for a friend, a neighbour or a host when you visit over the festive season. Hung in a hallway, he greets everyone who comes through the door.
He is made of 100% wool with a felted finish and filled with 100% polyester, which gives his body its soft, rounded shape. Felting presses wool fibres tightly together, so the surface is dense, slightly fuzzy and matt rather than woven. When the decorations come down, we would wrap him in tissue and give him a box of his own, so his scarf and wreath keep their shape for next year. For styling, pair him with plain glass baubles or natural wood ornaments, which let his white felt and patterned scarf take the attention.
