Ember Flint
Candle Maker
Ember Flint is one of the ten Winter Residents, newly arrived in Pebblewood. Each one is individually designed and hand-knitted in the Boyne Valley, Ireland, given a role in Pebblewood, finished with a felted accessory and numbered within the collection.
As Candle Maker, Ember Flint keeps Pebblewood lit through the long winter evenings. Through the autumn Ember Flint gathers beeswax from the hives and rushes from the wet ground, then dips each wick again and again in warm wax, letting every layer cool before the next, until the candle stands straight and burns slow and clean. Ember Flint makes rushlights too, the old way, peeling a rush and drawing it through melted fat, so no Resident's home is left in the dark when the days are short.
Decorative collectible item. Not intended as a toy. Intended for collectors aged 14 and over.
Inspired by Mary Jane's Tearoom knitting patterns
Description
The candle, needle-felted by Pat especially for Ember Flint, marks this Resident's place among the Winter Residents.
Hand-knitted in an alpaca and wool blend, Ember Flint wears orange dungarees with wooden buttons, a matching satchel, and a hat with a bead and a long knitted tail ending in a small copper bell. Pat has finished the dungarees with a brown and beige patterned fabric patch. Like every Pebblewood bear, Ember Flint carries the needle-felted merino wool heart on the right paw, the signature of a Crafty Pebblers Resident.
