pattern notes Welcome to the Fairies, Elves & Fantasy Doll Collection! Here you'll find a some allusive little beings ready to surprise and delight. All you need is a little imagination... About this pattern This crochet pattern includes instructions for creating "Yuki the Winter Fairy". You'll find the written pattern detailed on pages 5 through to 8, with example photos of key pattern steps included on page 9. General tips and recommendations knowledge of basic crochet stitches and amigurumi technique is recommended for completing this pattern round (or row) numbers are indicated in bold at the start of each line work in continuous rounds (spiral) unless otherwise indicated mark the beginning of each round with a stitch marker change yarn colour on the last step of the previous stitch (i.e. the stitch before the indicated colour change).

A note on skin colour Most of the patterns from this collection use a pale cream for the skin colour. I felt this gave the dolls an almost ethereal look about them. You may, of course, use any shade of skin tone that you prefer. Serious stuff All the patterns from the Fairies, Elves & Fantasy Doll Collection are available on Etsy. You are welcome to sell your makes from this pattern (in limited quantities), with a pattern credit to myself as the designer (oche pots). Please do not share this pattern or claim it as your own. For any enquires, feel free to contact me via Etsy or email [email protected]. Thank you for your support. And finally... Thank you for choosing an oche pots pattern! I hope you enjoy creating your own little collection of fairies, elves and other mystical beings. Love Clare x

Finished size Yuki is about 28 cm tall when made using the recommended yarn and hook size, but will vary based on individual tension and crochet style. A note on faces Embroidering the face on your amigurumi can take practise and patience, but will add lots of individual personality... no two are ever the same! For these patterns, I find it easier to add embroidered details after finishing the head and hair.
