What’s cuter than an alpaca? How about an alpaca wearing a Christmas sweater? Noel is fashionable, festive, and ready to spread the holiday cheer!

She can be made in any yarn and hook combination you want. Just be certain that the fabric is firm enough that stuffing does not show through.

My Noel is made in Vanna’s Choice Solids using four colors:

• Color 1: Toffee (80 yards)
• Color 2: Honey (30 yards)
• Color 3: Electric Purple (60 yards)
• Color 4: White (20 yards)

Noel is an Intermediate- to advanced- level pattern. Skills you will need include single crochet, increases, decreases, single crochet into the bottom of a foundation chain, color changes (stranding method), front-post double crochet (FPDC), joining new yarn with single crochet, and some seaming.

The pattern has plenty of progress photos to help you along your way to making your own stylishly dressed alpaca!
