Ffor rFairy
I prefer Catania from Schachenmayr (100 % 4-ply cotton), but you can use every other yarn you like with a hook in matching size. Note: using different yarn will probably change the size of the finished doll. Crochet Pattern ABC-Fairy from Andrea Gaida, AkinnaStisu For:Ravelry

Hair:
Cut golden yarn into pieces of approx. 15 cm length: Use a card of 15 cm widht and wrap yarn, cut yarn on both sides, repeat if necessary. Mark the middle line from forehead to backside of head using pins or yarn in a contrast colour. Take two pieces of yarn, fold in the middle and sew them over the middle line you have marked before. Take care that hair lies tightly so that you cannot see the head through, make a pig tail at each side and sew it with a stitch with gold to head. For the fringes over forehead, sew on each side of middle line 3 folded pieces of yarn in a straight line over forehead. Cut hair to desired length. nooth and slightly curled hair, split the yarn into its single threads (4-ply means 4 threads)
