Capture the magic of Christmas with darling amigurumi These adorable crocheted characters and their miniature accessories tell the heartwarming classic story of " 'Twas the Night Before Christmas."
Easy-to-follow instructions in the Japanese diagram style will teach you to make a jolly Santa and his eight reindeer, stockings to hang by the chimney, a wreath for the window, the little boy and girl, and the woodland creatures that watch the night unfold. Directions for turning them into Christmas ornaments for the tree are also included.
“These animals turn out just as cute as the photos. A few minor translation flubs, but not difficult to correct while you are working the pattern. I have done this author's patterns from his Japanese books and it is so great to see his work in an English format now.” Diane (user review)
