Large Wire Hare Needle Felt PACK (no tools!) - makes 1 large leaping hare
As featured in our February 2020 Makerss Subscription Box . This pack makes one large leaping hare with wire armature approximately 35cm from nose to tip of tail.
Make this hare leaping or sitting - your choice. It is a big project in lots of ways and is broken down into manageable steps. It can be suspended with thread or mounted on a pole. Hares are like stretched out rabbits: they have longer bodies, legs, neck and ears!
