Folk Angel and Folk Bird
The Folk Angel and Folk Bird are very special hand knitted festive decorations. They can be hung in a window, on a tree or as a garland if you make lots of them. The Angel can hold evergreens, tiny presents or baubles in her arms and will look lovely as part of a specially wrapped gift.
Both are knitted as flat pieces following both written instructions and charts and have simple embroidered features. They are knitted in a 4ply (Super Fine, Fingering) pure wool yarn to a tension of 26 sts and 39 rows per 10cm (4 inch). These particular decorations are knitted in a pure Shetland wool yarn, and require 2 x 115m (125 yd)/25 g balls of yarn, and a small amount of a third colour, to complete. But you can use any weight of yarn with these instructions – just make sure you follow the suggested tension on the ball band. Folk Angel and Folk Bird are available together as one PDF.
