This is the second Mr. Claus Potholder I’ve crocheted. I used a variegated yarn for the body, arms and legs. I also tried crocheting his beard with pom pom yarn. It’s really bushy!

I modified the body using rounds (no two chain start at each round) which I think, for me, is a cleaner join between rounds. Must use a marker for each round.

I’m still fighting the arms and legs to get the thumbs and feet going the correct direction.
