SANT-EGG CLAUS - THE CHRISTMAS HUMPTY
CROCHET PATTERN

NEW UPDATED VERSION FOR 2024!

SIZE/GAUGE INFO
One Size (7.5 X 3 inches / 19 x 7.5 cm) including ‘crumpled’ hat.

Tension/Gauge based on a fairly tight tension of 24 stitches x 28 rows per 4/10cm square

(crochet quite tight to achieve a nice dense fabric)

This Santa Humpty pattern is a cute and easy to follow amigurumi crochet design suitable for beginner or experienced crocheter alike. Includes colour coded written pattern instructions, photo tutorial images and embroidery diagram to help you achieve a great outcome!

Sant-egg Claus is the latest in my series of humpty dumpty doll patterns that take reference from traditional Nursery Rhymes and toys giving them a modern twist, dash of humour and their own narrative.

Each pattern in the Humpty series comes with an accompanying story which can be shared alongside your completed project.

Great for beginners as only basic crochet and sewing skills are needed !
