Review:

This new book presents us with a guide on how to knit your own fairy with imagination in two different sizes. It features ten stunning designs, with the dolls standing at approximately 40cm (16in) and displays their own individual traits and styles. They range from a dark Gothic fairy, a mysterious moon fairy, and even Oberon, king of the fairies, and more in this wonderfully illustrated, easy to follow book. --Craft Business
