The following pattern is my original design.
Please only copy or print this pattern for personal use.
I have tested this pattern but please contact me if you find any errors.
Thank you Jennifer Lube!
Jennifer emailed me in February of 2002 regarding the wings of this angel...
the wings are within the bodice but some of my directions were omitted before.
The pattern has been corrected as of February 6, 2002.
Also, Jennifer stated that her dress was too short... this may be a tension problem.
I suggest repeating Rows 4 and 5 of the skirt to make it longer.Thanks, Lisa.

WEAVE IN ENDS
Hot glue the head bead to the doll pin. Draw a face (see photo) on the head bead then glue on the hair. Now glue the iridescent craft cord in place to resemble a halo. Add the dress, shape the skirt so the doll stands alone. Everyone crochets a bit different so if your dress doesn't help the doll stand alone you can buy a stand for a clothespin at your local craft store.
