Knitted Fairies To Cherish and Charm

With imagination and flair, Fiona McDonald shows you how to knit ten fantastical fairies in two different sizes, all with their own character and style. They include a scary gothic fairy, an enigmatic moon fairy, a cool ice fairy and even Oberon, the king of the fairies himself. Using a basic body pattern, each fairy is dressed in its own costume, complete with wands, wings and various embellishments - ideal for using up scraps and oddments from your knitting basket! The dolls make wonderful gifts for both adults and older children, though they are not suitable for very young children, and can be easily adapted to match your friend's or relative's personality or lifestyle.

Fiona McDonald studied classical painting and drawing at the Julian Ashton Art School. She has developed her own unique oil-painted, needle-sculpted, life-size cloth figures and her own line of fabric dolls and dragons. Her previous books include Knitted Aliens and Babes in the Wool.
