“Have yourself a merry little Christmas, let your heart be light…” I hope you have fun knitting these delightful Christmas Characters, which have been designed to have many uses. They could be made into Christmas tree decorations, soft and cuddly toys or finger puppets. They could be filled with chocolates, sweets or small treats and given as gifts or party favours. They are also ideal for charity fundraising.

This collection can be made cheaply out of oddments of double knitting yarn. The knitting pattern has clear row by row instructions and lots of photographs to help you along the way. You will need to be able to knit, purl, cast on and off, increase and decrease, change colours and sew seams. All pieces are knitted flat on straight needles. So why not add some festive cheer to your home and start knitting today!
