This is absolutely the cutest angel. I loved making them. I gave for an ornament on gifts and packages. It turns out adorable and so easy. I make several at one time. So I would make 5 wings, 5 bodies etc.... works perfect. Thanks for sharing this pattern. I loved it !!

I know I'm a year too late but I love this pattern. It was so easy to make. I used gold cord for the wings instead of yarn and they were beautiful.

I made this angel last year for several people I work with. It was a big hit and so easy and fun to make. I am going to make some more this year for packages. Love it!

I've been looking for something to attach to wrapped presents for Christmas. This is perfect and would be less expensive than buying ornaments for packages. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this cute angel. I am going to make these for my ornament exchange group. It should be small enough to fit into an envelope & still not weigh alot to save on postage when I send them.

Here is a great idea for those of you wanting to give a "special" gift to an angel lover on your holiday gift list. 1st use fabric glue on your little angel, then sew her in the center of a "T" shirt. It will be a Huge hit with the angel lover on your Christmas Shopping list. Best of all it didn't cost but a few dollars and you can dress your angel in her favorite colors, instead of gold and white... Let's say her favorite color is lavendar, then match that up with a matte or even shiny silver ribbon. The combonations are endless. Happy Angel making and gift giving this year... Even though it's only May.... Crocheter-In-Fl

I am thrilled that this angel is going to make a lot of my angels, (people that have helped me while I am battling a serious spine disorder), feel really special this year. I have always believed that you can give angels all year, not just Christmas. Thanks, Ruth J.
