Keychain Butterfly fairy
Introducing the finished Butterfly, a charming knitted creation that stands at approximately 7.48 inches (19 cm) tall, perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your home decor or as a thoughtful handmade gift. This delightful pattern guides you through the process of knitting a beautiful Butterfly doll, along with its whimsical clothing and accessories.
Materials Needed: To create your adorable Butterfly, gather the following essential supplies:
- • Four double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. For a firmer fabric, I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than what the yarn label suggests. For example, I used size 2.5 mm (US 2) needles for the doll and size 4 mm (US 6) for the clothing.
- • Cream acrylic yarn (recommended: Kartopu «Flora», 100% acrylic, 100 g - 230 m) for the body of the doll.
- • Grey colored yarn (also Kartopu «Flora», 100% acrylic, 100 g - 230 m) for crafting the charming hair.
- • White colored yarn (try Kid Mohair by Ice Yarns Lace / 2 ply, which is 50% Mohair and 50% Nylon, 300 meters / 30 grams) to create an elegant skirt.
- • Pink colored yarn (also 100% acrylic, 50 g - 230 m) for the whimsical wings, bringing a touch of color to your Butterfly.
- • Toy stuffing to fill your creation, providing it with soft, huggable charm.
- • Yarn needle for finishing your project.
- • Stitch holder to keep your work organized and manageable.
- • A length of 50 cm colored fishing line for crafting lovely antennae.
- • A small hoop (band) for added structural support.
- • A keychain blank that can serve as a delightful accessory for your finished Butterfly.
