FREE FAIRY/FAERIE PATTERNS

• I will divide the links for these patterns into two groups: those that fall into the “cute” category I will call “Fairy Patterns” and those that fall into darker/ethereal side I will call “Faerie Patterns”.
• Please note that I don’t require each pattern to litterally have a fairy in it….it just has to pertain to “fairy”.
