Warm russet-red linen for our gentleman fox and a beautiful pale snow fox for our Mrs, each with their own wonderfully detailed wardrobe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this kit, you can choose to make \u003cstrong\u003eeither Mr. Fox OR Mrs. Fox\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Both have beautifully shaped faces and ears, jointed-looking stuffed arms and legs, a wonderfully full tail finished with a soft cream wool tip, and tiny felt eyes with hand-stitched details. They finish at an impressive \u003cstrong\u003eapproximately 19½\" tall\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMr. Fox\u003c\/strong\u003e is made in a rich rust-brown linen with contrasting ecru details.

Her wardrobe includes a full \u003cstrong\u003eSquirrel-print dress\u003c\/strong\u003e with a gathered skirt and an elegant \u003cstrong\u003ecream boiled-wool coat\u003c\/strong\u003e. The coat is especially lovely, with a delicate lace standing collar, a fitted upper section and beautifully shaped tails at the back designed to sit around her fox tail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are beautiful displayed individually, but of course they are especially wonderful together. Acufactum describes them as an elegant pair — a pale snow fox and warm-toned red fox with expressive faces and refined clothing, bringing a little woodland magic and handcrafted character to a winter home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinished size:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately \u003cstrong\u003e19½\" tall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level: Intermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoose from:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMr. Fox KIT\u003c\/strong\u003e — includes the fabrics to make Mr. Fox plus his gray wool jacket, fox-print vest and checked trousers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMrs. Fox KIT\u003c\/strong\u003e — includes the fabrics to make Mrs. Fox plus her Squirrel dress and cream wool coat with lace collar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStuffing and snaps, buttons or velcro are not included.
