As a ballerina at heart, Christmastime always makes me think about The Nutcracker and of course, The Sugar Plum Fairy! Fairies are just so much fun and this little one definitely does not disappoint! Featuring a sweet tutu, Tiny Dancer toe shoes and fun little details, your little girl (and those who are little girls at heart!) will not be disappointed with this speedy knit. Fairy is knit seamlessly from the top of her head all the way down to her tippy toe shoes. Sweet little wings, hair that can be styled up in a bun and ties to “lace” up her shoes are sure to delight the littlest of dancers.
