Bow:
With Maroon Mist Yarn, Ch 8
Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook, ch 1, turn.
Rows 2-6: Sc across, ch 1, turn.
Fasten off on last sc row, leave a tail long enough
for sewing.
To Form Bow:
1. Weave in short piece of yarn (where ch was
started) to center;
2. Weave in long tail to center;
3. Pinch center and wrap long tail around
several 5 times.
4. Thread yarn through needle and secure by
running under the wrapped part, bringing it out;
secure with a knot.
Gown:
Rnd 1: With Maroon Mist Yarn, insert crochet hook
in sc on top of body and pull yarn through to form a
loop, sl st to secure. You will be crocheting directly
on the body.
Rnd 2: Sc around top of body through each sc,
inserting hook directly through sc on body = 10 sc
Rnd 3: Work 2 sc in each sc = 20 sc
You will now be crocheting into first rnd of sts
Rnd 4: *Sc in first sc, 2 sc in next sc*, repeat
from * around = 30 sc
Rnd 5: Work 1 HDC in ea sc around for 8 rnds, or
until gown reaches bottom of body.
Fasten off, weave in yarn.
NOTE: Number of sts for gown is approximate –
if you have a few less or a few more stitches in
the gown, it is ok. Continue crocheting until gown
reaches bottom of body.
6. Use a toothbrush and brush the gown gently – go up
and down then side to side. This will give her gown a
fuzzy appearance. The more you brush, the fuzzier the
yarn. Patons Lacette is a mohair blend yarn – brushing
will make the yarn appearance fuzzy.
To Make Wings: (Make 2)
NOTE: Because Patons Lacette is a light fingering yarn, crochet the wings
holding 2 strands together.

Rnd 2: Work 2 sc in ea sc around = 10 sc

At this point, you will be crocheting back and forth, not in the round.
Rnd 5-9: Sc across, ch 1, turn. Do not ch 1 at end of last row.
Fasten off, leaving a tail long enough for sewing.
To Form Halo:
Measure 4” and cut silver tinsel pipe cleaner. Fold the
pipe cleaner to form an “L” shape (one end will
measure 1-1/2”).
Form the long end into a circle with a slight overlap.
Wrap the overlap end of circle around once to secure.
To Form Magic Wand:
Measure 7” and cut silver pipe cleaner. Curl the tip into a continuous circle
10 turns. Twist the curled circle 2 times.
