Hello, knitter friends! I have a special surprise for you today. I have designed a toy knitting pattern for a cute and cuddly Santa Claus doll that you can make for yourself or as a gift for someone you love. This knitting doll is perfect for the Christmas and will bring joy to anyone who sees it.
My PDF knitting pattern is written in English, the file is 23 pages PDF. The pattern includes, all the necessary information, clear instructions, and 102 step-by-step figures to guide you through each step. You can also watch a tutorial video on my website Cheryx.com to see how I made this doll. It’s very easy to follow.
The pattern is suitable for beginners as well as advanced knitters.
You can also customize the doll according to your preference by changing the colors or the accessories.
I hope you like this special friend too, and maybe you will knit my Santa someday.
