I had the opportunity to test this great pattern for FreshStitches! I made this to send as a gift in the latest swap to help fund an adoption, details about that are on this blog, I think it’s a wonderful way to help someone add to their family.

I decided to add something extra to his hat, I gave him a red stripe and then crocheted a bow and holly to attach. I couldn’t figure out which one to sew one, so I added Velcro to each and the hat. They can be switched out, depending on what he wants to wear!

I really loved crocheting this pattern and everyone in the house loved this guy so much, that I’m going to make his twin to live at our house.
