A simple pattern for making small (3” or less) Minions of a variety of sizes.

My pattern is written using the US terms for crochet stitches.

A fun way to use up small amounts of yarn, and create cute little gifts, this pattern is fairly flexible and can be made with almost any yarn available. If using lace or light fingering yarn, the FO will be about 2-4” tall. Perfect little pixies for decorations or toys.

Terry Goodkind’s novels include the Grace, a magical symbol consisting of an eight pointed star, surrounded by a circle, then a square, and then a second circle with radiating lines from each of the eight points on the star. This is my rough attempt to recreate it. I made this pattern for silvermoon-dragon.
