This pattern will be for you to make an amigurumi shelf-sitting figure of a Reindeer. No physical materials are supplied.

Your finished Reindeer is not a toy and should be for display purposes only. It will be weighted at the base and sits around 10 inches tall (not including the dangly legs). Total length is around 14 inches.

1 x 100g ball/skein of each colour will be more than sufficient
1) Red (example: Hayfield Bonus DK Acrylic)

5) Green

Other materials you will need:
