Getting ready for Christmas. Knitting pattern Santa Claus and Christmas tree. Jolly Santa Claus are ready for Christmas! Christmas is on the way! Santa and Christmas trees are waiting to help make your home festive! This Knitting pattern will help you to make amigurumi knitted Mr. Claus. The pattern is written for knitting flat on two needles and the toy should be seamed afterwards. Worked flat on 2 straight knitting needles and seamed.
This is a PDF file with detailed instructions. The pattern is 16 pages long and has more than 91 pictures to help you.
THE PATTERN INCLUDES: Row numbers for each step so you don’t lose your place, instructions for making the doll with sculpted face, a collar with a hood and glasses, photos, a list of abbreviations and explanation of some techniques, a materials list and recommended yarns. The collar with hood and glasses can be taken off.
Level of Difficulty: Experienced
Finished Size:
If you are using the materials I am suggesting the final size of the toy is going to be approximately 30 cm from head to toe (11.8”) and approximately 20 cm (7.9”) when seated. Doll can come taller or smaller but still a lot of fun to knit and to become friends with. I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric.
MATERIALS AND TOOLS you will need:
You can use acrylic yarn. The thicker yarn you use, the bigger toy you will get.
I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric.
