Summary
A felt glove puppet of Grandmother (possibly from Little red Riding Hood). The yellow coloured felt head would appear to be a covered ball. She has white wool hair with a bun at the back. A pink felt nose, blue-grey felt eyes. A purple felt body with yellow felt hands. Around her neck a piece of white broderie anglais braid. The bottom is open to allow access to the tube into the head. There is a small rectangle of white velcro at the back of the head.
