Wild Things


In Northern forests cold and clear
Beneath a midnight sun
There is an ancient magic near;
A race of spellbound twilight deer,
A whisper on the mind.

In human form and fair of face
They shed their deerskin self
And beckon with a fairy grace,
To follow to a primal place,
And loose your human form.

Aurora Fawn and Balin

Aurora Fawn is from my Simply Ami pattern, with borrowed antlers and ears from the pattern Rudy-the-Reindeer by Tales of Twisted Fibers.  Her companion Balin is from the pattern Sherman the Deer by Snugglme Stitches.  Both of these delightful patterns are free :-)

Aurora's dress is knit from my Knits for tiny Ami's pattern, with a simple Fair Isle tree motif.

Happy New Year!

  6. Simply delightful! Even more fun with the poem. I didn't realize she was a shape shifter.

    1. Hi Debbie,

      The pattern is an old one from my stash, by The Needlework Company. I think it was called Christmas Folk and featured snowmen and these trees. You might try googling it to see if you can find a copy.

      warmly,

      Beth
