Standing Krampus was created with slight mods from my Barnyard Buddies Base. When using the specified yarns, he stands at 17.5” tall and is 13” wide at widest point which is his ears.

His outfit includes shackles, collar, and his basket backpack to carry off all the naughty children. You can create his shackles as one piece or two.

If you decide to make him without pants you will want to order 2 skeins of the eyelash yarn, otherwise one will do. I hold a worsted weight along with the eyelash yarn so you can see your stitches easily. Also, if you decide you want him a bit larger you can hold 2 worsted weights along with one eyelash, again you will need 2 skeins instead of one if you go this route the hook size should stay the same as in the directions.

Please read the notes section before beginning your project as it could answer any questions that might arise.
