A trio of festive favourites, Santa, Rudolph and Robin are little toys, ideal for decorating your tree for the holidays. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the toys are knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round), and the antlers and limbs are i-cord pieces worked on two DPNs. For colour-work you will need to knit stripes, and Santa’s belt is embroidered using Swiss darning. For confident beginners and above, other techniques used include casting on and off, knits, purls, increases and decreases, and seaming to finish.
