Steps to Crochet a Simple Fairy House

Ready to create your first fairy house? Here’s a step-by-step guide for a basic mushroom fairy house:

1. Start the Base:
   • Using brown yarn, make a magic ring and work in single crochet rounds, increasing as needed.
   • Continue until you have a flat circle, then stop increasing to build up the sides of the house.
2. Shape the Roof:
   • Use red yarn to crochet a smaller magic ring and increase in rounds.
   • After reaching the desired size, add white crochet spots or embroider them on the roof.
3. Attach Roof to Base:
   • Once the roof and base are complete, use a tapestry needle to stitch the roof onto the top of the house.
   • Be sure to stuff the roof with polyfill for a full, mushroom-like shape.
4. Add Details:
   • Embroider windows, a door, and vines around the house.
   • For extra character, add a tiny crochet flower or two along the sides.
