Yulia Derevschikova hails from Khabarovsk, Russia and has been making cute felt animals since 2015.

Derevschikova has made several hundred woodland creatures out of felt, and it looks like she’s going to be making these for some time to come.

She uses a felted wool technique, which means she does some weaving so the animals look fluffier.
