Gingerbread Man - Ornament
Calorie free treats anyone? How about some crocheted Gingerbread Men? :)
Decorate your Christmas Tree, windows, gifts and more with them!
You can even stuff them if you like. But they look great flat as well.
Start today and crochet a whole bunch of them. :)
Skill Level: easy to medium
Size: The size depends on your gauge, chosen type of yarn and crochet hook size. I'm using Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8, DK/Light-Worsted) from Coats and a 3 mm hook. With that I get the following size/s: 13.5 cm (from head to toe)
used Techniques * magic ring * chain * single crochet * half double crochet * double crochet * slip stitch * increase and (invisible) decrease * crocheting back and forth in rows * crocheting in continuous rounds (rounds are not joined) * basic sewing (sewing on body-parts, closing openings etc) * basic embroidery (i.e. eyes, mouth etc)
The pattern is very detailed. Almost every single step/stitch is explained in words and pictures. Special characteristics are explained step-by-step (i.e. embroidering the mouth). You see, nothing can go wrong! :)
