Display and gift ideas

Sit him on a shelf, a mantel or a chair by the tree. He makes a funny handmade gift for anyone who loves the holiday movies.

Who this pattern is for

This pattern suits crocheters who are comfortable with single crochet, increases and invisible decreases and who like to follow a longer pattern with photos. The body is worked mostly in the round, so it needs patience more than advanced stitches.

Tips for making it

• Work in a continuous spiral without joining, and use a stitch marker to keep your place.
• Stuff the legs firmly so the doll can stand, then stuff the body as you go.
• Place the legs and eyes before you sew the head closed, as the pattern shows.

Why you'll love this pattern

The clear photos make the long pattern easy to follow, and the optional coat and hat let you dress the doll for Christmas. The result is a big, funny character that stands out on any holiday shelf.
