The Peddler Woman I had a fascination for the old 18th and 19th Century peddler dolls, with all the knicknacks in their baskets, all handmade by the dollmaker. I couldn't resist trying it for myself. She is selling yarn, candles, a peg wooden doll, hat pins, books, prints of paintings, bottles of perfume and tonics, and sewing notions. Also several fans and a wooden washboard, which can't be seen in this photo. For years, I have been collecting little pots and pans and things like that so I can make a Peddler Man. Perhaps, one day, I will do it. (For a detailed article on how to make some of the items in the peddler's basket go to the Workbook!)
