ooooh ♥ faerie wings! ♥

these are a SNAP to make.
or you could clap, fairies love clapping.
forget about cutting up wire hangers and messing with difficult structure, I promise they are EASY to construct!

NOTE:
they are feather light so you’ll forget you have them on,
which is great when you are rambling through the forest,
(but it might get you some funny looks at the grocery store!)

you can get this pattern 2 different ways:

1. it is featured in my new book Woodland knits.
2. you can download the pdf right here on this page ♥

the technical stuff

the straps are adjustable so you can make them any size.
