Darcy Deer is a perfect make for Christmas, or for friends and family who love the outdoors!

The pattern is versatile and can be used to make a stag or a doe, or you could free-hand some white spots to the head and body and make a fawn! For the Christmas season, use red for the nose to make a perfect Rudolph!
