JOY is the fourth crochet angel in my Angel Series. She is the most detailed of the set (so far) - with a double layered skirt with ruffles.

Photo support is included in the post.

She stands by herself and you do not need to stiffen the finished fabric - she is crocheted with worsted weight/medium weight yarn.

She makes a lovely tabletop decoration, you can add a length of ribbon (or a crochet chain) to use her as a tree ornament or decoration in your home. She will also work atop your Christmas Tree as a Tree Topper. If you are struggling to keep her in place try using a piece of paper towel roll or toilet paper roll inserted beneath her skirt to provide a sturdier base than the flimsy bendy tree wire. Or make a cone from paper or plastic to sit beneath her skirt on top of the tree (or even cut the base of a plastic water bottle and use the top bit without the cap under her skirt!). I’ve also considered sewing a small bell under her skirt to make her ‘chime’.

I have used Bowdabra Bow Wire - Color Gold and 2.25 mm (B) crochet hook for her halo but you can easily substitute a pipe cleaner for this purpose.
