This collection of 5 Christmas dolls are quick and easy to make. They are ideal last-minute Christmas decorations or gifts.

The body and heads are knitted in one piece and after seaming and stuffing the legs are created by sewing a seam through from front to back to divide the legs. The arms are knitted separately and are sewn on when making up these cute little characters.

This pattern is suitable for confident beginners- All the doll and accessory pieces are knitted flat and use basic shaping.

Picking up stitches and yarn overs are used in the skirt section, and the Christmas stocking is knitted flat with a few, quite simple short rows to shape the heel.

Santa And Mrs Claus are getting ready for a remarkably busy Christmas Eve. Santa’s sack is full of toys and games for all the children to enjoy.

Mrs Claus loves to knit, she’s busy making a warm scarf for Santa to wear when he’s out on Christmas Eve delivering gifts.

The Bitsy elves are ready to help on Christmas Eve.
Although they are only small, Bitsy Elves work hard, filling lots of stockings for children to enjoy, early on Christmas morning.

The stocking is just big enough to contain a little gift-or maybe a candy a cane?

Bitsy fairy is ready to spread some Christmas Magic!
She has sparkly wings and a little wand to spread fairy dust around the Christmas tree.
Maybe she will sit at the very top and watch all the Christmas fun and games?
