The Nutcracker brings many of us warm memories of Christmas. This Nutcracker ornament will be the perfect project for your tree or to gift to a fellow Nutcracker lover (or maybe a young dancer in the Nutcracker Suite!). The ornament features a round body and a sweet face, and will be instantly recognizable to anyone who sees your work.

The Nutcracker ornament is my original amigurumi design. Your purchase comes as a PDF file with written instructions and a photo tutorial for each step of the pattern.

What will you need for this project?
You’ll need the yarn colors pictured (worsted/aran weight - a specific yarn list is included in the pattern), a size E/3.5mm and C/2.75mm crochet hook, safety eyes, a yarn needle, stuffing, and embroidery floss.

The finished Nutcracker is about 5” tall (though this will depend on your personal crochet tension).

Patterns are written in English using US crochet terminology and are meant for the intermediate crocheter.
You will receive an instant download PDF. Your pattern will include step by step instructions and helpful photographs.
