A Festive Quartet of Christmas Cuties
Christmas is just around the corner which means knitters all over the world are working double time to get those last WIPs finished.
These little cuties were inspired by the many different adorable dress up outfits that are popping up all over the shops. I imagined it would be fun to knit these little dolls and dress them up in everyone’s favourite Christmas characters. They are just the right size to poke out of the top of a Christmas stocking or dangle from a tree.
