Folklore is full of stories of the Little Folk - elves, fairies, sprites - sometimes helpful, sometimes mischievous, but always enchanting.

This 30 page PDF crochet pattern gives you all the information you need to make six different Little Folk (Dobby the House Elf, Brownie, Forest Fairy, Autumn Tree Sprite, Fire Imp and Grey Hobgoblin) and multiple pattern variations so that you can make a creature to your own design. The pattern also contains techniques to make 4 different kinds of hair and additional patterns for clothes such as the Brownie’s waistcoat and the Forest Fairy’s leaf-dress.

The pattern is suitable for crocheters with a little experience. The instructions are detailed and easy to follow if you know the basic stitches and techniques used to make amigurumi, and there are lots of photos to help with the more advanced techniques used.
