Crochet Angel

This is so flipping cute. I had to try and make one myself. So simple. I found this online.

I can't get over how cute.

Okay so here we go:
Any hook and any size yarn.
I used red heart yarn ply 4
Hook G

I made a magic circle: Chain 4, slip stitch, chain 3
R1- 12 dc in the ring, slip stitch and chain 3
R2- 2 dc in each dc 5 Times (=10dc) Chain 3. Take the yarn off and replace with glistening silver ,if you wish to have sparkling wings. (optional) I used white.
R3- 2 dc in each dc 10 times. 
R4- ( 1dc, ch1) in each dc (=20dc) now is the wings finish, change yarn.
R5- start in 7th chain with slip stitches. Chain 1, *(2dc,ch1,2dc) * repeat *_* until you have 4 groups.
R6- ch3, * (2dc,ch1,2dc) 
R7: repeat 6
R8: Chain 3, 1 single dc, chain 1, repeat across
R9: 1sl st in 1ch,*4dc in the 1ch,* repeat *_* Across row
Then I slip stitched on the wing to make the color look like the other side and slip stitched and tied it off.
You can glue a magnet or hang on your tree or in your car. 

(optional)
To strengthened the angel:

Start by putting plastic on your block mat , so that the angel does not stick . I 'm using a regular plastic bag.
Mix equal parts 1 Tablespoon water and 1 Tablespoon wood glue. 
Dip the angel in the glue mixture so that it is properly soaked . Squeeze out the excess 
glue .Let dry then hang.
