Description

Surgi Doll by Liz Pead: Cotton Muslin, cotton thread, industrial felt, felted wool (helmet, hockey puck and hockey stick) acrylic yarn (machine-knit hockey sweater and hair) and stuffed with wool and cotton thrums.


The Hockey Gal is for anyone obsessed with Canada's favourite pastime. My work deals with hockey as a physical passtime, much as any other creative endeavour (knitting, stitching, felting) which employs the body and brain working in concert. Game on, Hockey Sisters and Brothers!
