Book of Craft Boo Toy

We had a question over on Twitter about some specifics in making the Boo toy from the Book of Craft. Our lovely friends at Quadrille came to the rescue with answering it so we shall impart the information here for you all too!

They were asked about the thickness of the felt for Boo....
"If using shop-bought felt, go for 4mm. Use nice big over stitches when stitching pieces so stuffing doesn't leak. For Boo in the book, we boil washed a thrift store cashmere sweater to felt it down and make a lovely soft felt. "
