This pattern will be worked in a continuous spiral unless otherwise specified.

Note: This pattern contains multiple types of stitches that are specific to form the correct shape. Examples of this include both Decreases and Invisible Decreases. You can substitute your Decreases with invisible Decreases if you wish, however your shaping may be off.

The faerie fox does not need to be wired; however, they will not be poseable without wiring and their wings likely won’t stand up. They also may have difficulty standing without some creative posing or weights. If you’d like to skip the wire, I recommend sizing down your yarn and hook size for the wings and then using some spray starch on them. This pattern can use any size yarn and crochet hook, but please be aware that you will need to resize your safety eyes and wiring.
