Christmas amigurumi wreath

I Made this beautiful amigurumi wreath with Christmas colours. I made one for my daughter that I was giving her on Christmas day but I ended up giving it to her early. I since made two other ones for my sister. I saw one on pinterest which I liked then I watched on youtube to see how they are done.  I used a foam ring and I made large santa big enough to fit in the middle. I never learn I should have wrote the pattern down the first time. I also did the hat as I go and the balls at the buttom. You will never know if you have enough or if you need smaller or larger ones. I did few sizes and then I stuck them with glue cheating lol but I sewed Santa. I also did a cord at the back so you can hang it from but it you might need a bigger hook you can always add a ribbon to it. I used Christmas colours yarn. You will need about two white, one red  and one green plus the foam and stuffing if you like to try this out.

Amigurumi Santa

Santa is done as well. It wasn't as hard to make as I first thought but it was different then other patterns I have done in the past. I am not very pleased with the beard but I couldn't think of a better idea. I made black gloves instead of green. I didn't change anything from this pattern. He also has ears when you take off the hat. I need to improve on making faces I don't seem to be good at it. I used a golden metallic polyester for the buckle. here is a view of them. Good luck in making yours.

Elf doll

Trying to finish what I started here is my finished elf doll. When I am not satisfied up to my standard I usually not complete it. This is my weakness but I am trying to finish things so I can start on new project. I made two sets of ears as the patterns say but mine came too small so I made another set with two yarn and I stuck them on, not very happy that the ears came close to the face but I can never unpick my work I sew too good.  I also should have used a smaller crochet for the body. I am a harsh critic for my work. I think I could have done better. I got the pattern from amigurumi bb she has many free patterns. She is very generous to share all her patterns for free. Good luck in making the elf girl I don't know if I ever try the elf boy now.
