The Nutcracker Crochet Ornament Collection gives you all the instructions and photographs you’ll need to crochet your own beautiful, heirloom-quality set of ornaments. These ornament patterns match six characters from the Nutcracker ballet - The Nutcracker, Clara, the Mouse King, the Sugar Plum Fairy, a Toy Soldier, and the Snow Queen. When you make this set, you are making something memorable that the whole family will take out and enjoy year after year.

The Nutcracker ornaments are my original amigurumi design. Your purchase comes as a PDF file with 36 pages of written instructions and a photo tutorial for each ornament shown here. You will receive directions for crocheting all figures pictured.

You’ll need the yarn colors pictured (worsted/aran weight - a specific yarn list is included in the pattern), a size E/3.5mm and C/2.75mm crochet hook, safety eyes, a yarn needle, stuffing, embroidery floss, and a pipe cleaner. The patterns in this e-book are a good fit for anyone with an intermediate crochet skill level, but if you are an ambitious beginner, there is plenty of support to help you along. The finished ornaments are about 6.5” tall.

About Crochet to Play:

Each Crochet to Play pattern gives you all the instructions you’ll need to create toys that appeal to both kids and adults. I am a firm believer that children flourish with plenty of opportunities for creativity. When you give a child the toys you have handmade from these patterns, you are giving tools for story-telling, dramatic play, understanding character, and more!

Patterns are written in English using US crochet terminology and are meant for the intermediate crocheter.
