Fairy Elara - Lesson 1: Materials List and Petal Skirt - Amigurumi

Description:

In this first lesson of the Fairy Elara series, I walk through the entire step‑by‑step process of creating the delicate petal skirt that brings the magical doll to life. I begin by discussing the materials needed—thread, needles, pins, and other essential accessories—for a flawless finish. I then show how to create highly detailed petals using a pattern of double, triple, and treble stitches that add movement and delicacy. At 00:00:21 I give an overview of the materials used. At 00:25:45 I start the petals with the first detailed petal row. At 00:33:14 I finish the first petal row of 19 petals. At 00:34:02 I begin the second petal row of 15 petals. At 00:38:11 I add the third petal row of 12 petals. At 00:41:41 I complete the fourth and final petal row of 9 petals. At 00:44:19 I explain and give tips for blocking the petals. At 00:46:13 I pin the petals onto a Styrofoam ball for blocking. Finally, I share tips on wetting the piece, letting it dry, and preparing it for the next steps on the fairy’s body and wings.
