These little treat baskets are great for giving someone special treats or little gifts at Christmas. They are easy to make and work up quickly, so you can give one to everyone on your nice list.

Santa’s sleigh is in the workshop and it doesn’t look like it will be finished in time for Christmas! Never fear, Santa has a backup plan. His magical Santa Balloon will save the day!

Wine in all its variations is a common gift at Christmas. This year, make your presents unique by giving them a cute Santa along with the wine.

Gauge is not important for this pattern. Tree Thangs are very easy to make.

Gauge is not important for this pattern. When finished using DK yarn, D.B. McKurkin stands approximately 40cm high.
