May 22, 2020
Dutch elementary school teacher, Ingeborg Meinster-Van der Dui, missed her students when classes were cancelled due to the COVID-19 virus. So she knitted little dolls that represented each of her students. She made sure that to include details special to each student in her creations – freckles, glasses, hairstyles, etc.
When completed, she shared a photo of her dolls with her students and their parents – and they were delighted.
Classes will soon be back in session, but Ms. Meinster-Van der Dui says she will continue to make dolls of her students in the future.
