From Knit.1

Kate Williams's Day of the Dead dolls are a folk-art representation of the surrealism Frida Kahlo practiced so artfully. No matter the size, each doll is knit in two pieces with "Wool-Ease," embroidered on the front, then stuffed, sewn together and topped with knotted braids in "LamĂŠ."
