    About

    This is my first Fariba Fairy. As with all Pat's patterns it's easy to follow and the making up instructions are very clear. I'm pleased with the result and hope it will help to raise money for Bournemouth Heart Club.

    Accessories

    • Stitch Markers
    • Tapestry Needle
    • Stuffing
    Other : Safety eyes and a wand! Every fairy must have a wand!

    Measurements

    14 inches/36 cms (head to toe)

    Notes: I knitted the wings on 2.25mm needles.

      Hi Sue was at the shop today and found some wands in a $2 shop that will suffice. Now just need to wait for arrival of the yarn... which may take some time. We in australia are currently waiting 6-8 weeks. Will still be in time for xmas! X

        Glad you found your wands 😁. Can't believe you have to wait 6-8 weeks, you've got so many sheep! Sorry know we use synthetic yarns, but couldn't resist 🤣. Will look forward to seeing your fairy, Christine 😊

      What a gorgeous fairy Sue. The details in her face, hair and wings are lovely. I might have to add her to my list too. She’s definitely a Sugar Plum.

        Hi Christine I have tried to add the link from Amazon a couple of times but it gets cut off. If you look for 10x mini fairy wands brand is Playwrite £3.99. Let me know if you need any more details. Enjoy making your fairy! 😊

      Oh my! She's beautiful. Lovely colours. Her wings are beatiful. I think Fariba is going to be a popular knit!

      Aw she’s so cute Sue! 😍 Her wee face is delightful and I love the colours you’ve used! You’ve got her hair just right and the pretty bows on her shoes finish her off. I don’t think this will be your last Fariba fairy! I think you should keep this one and do another for charity.

        Thanks, Dianne. You're right! I already have another two planned for family and I think I will make a Christmas one for me. Hope you're ok, Dianne. What's your latest project?
