“Coming soon, down a chimney near you, it’s our very jolly Father Christmas! We love the traditional look of this festive fellow - dressed head to toe in red and white, with smart black boots and a matching belt, he’s a classic Santa, amigurumi style! Sit him on the mantelpiece to greet the real Santa on his way in, or on a toy shelf to let children know that Father Christmas is always watching to see it they’re naughty or nice!”

Measurements approx 19cm tall.

Gauge not critical

Yarn DMC Natura Just Cotton: 1 ball each of
Nacar (N35) Yarn A

Also need:
Toy stuffing
Needle and thread
2 x 5mm safety eyes

Note: the yardage listed is the total yardage of the 4 balls of different colours, but presumably not all of the ball would be used in each colour.

Note: the website only has a photo of the project and the information that it is in Love Crochet Issue 68, December 2018. It does not have the pattern itself.
