Opysis Elf Doll Pattern
Opysis the Elf is the self-care guru of the crew. She never misses the opportunity to pamper her and her friends on multiple at-home spa days. Her favorite thing to do is to practice some spa treatments on her friends, all while listening to them talk about their day. Opysis and Princess Nadine could sit together quietly for hours without any tension or obligation to talk. Myade the Ballerina can't decide which smells better: the princess' freshly baked cookies or Opysis' secret-sleepy aromatherapy.Thank you so much for supporting my amigurumi. *There is an affiliate link to where I buy the yarn for this pattern.
