Rudy the Reindeer is a festive plush amigurumi made with super-soft chenille yarn.
He wears cozy green overalls with red and white details — a joyful project for the winter season.
The pattern features minimal sewing and clear step-by-step instructions for shaping and assembly.

Size:
Approx. 30 cm (12 in) tall when made with the recommended yarn and hook.
Size may vary slightly depending on yarn brand and tension.

Gauge:
