What you need to know

When the presents are wrapped and the sleigh is loaded, who does Santa rely on to guide him through the winter skies? Rudolph the amigurumi reindeer, of course! Take your time when sewing up this toy’s antlers and ears to make sure they’re even and matching; wonky antlers could lead to a wrong turn on Christmas Eve!

Pattern update

Oops! We forgot to mention where the safety eyes go – we're very sorry! Place them between Rnds 27-28 of Body & Head, approx five sts apart. We also missed a colour change on the Arms. Change to Bright Red after Rnd 7.
