Santa Gift Buddy

"This Santa Gift Buddy is small in size but big on festive spirit! Its little basket is perfect for tucking in candy, gift cards, or a bit of chocolate, making every present extra magical. This crochet pattern is a beginner friendly written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and video tutorial to help you along the way. Santa Gift Buddy is crocheted in the round/continuous spirals without joining the rounds. I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Santa Gift Buddy is crocheted in super bulky chenille yarn and is approximately 3 inches tall. Be aware that size may vary depending on the yarn and hook size used. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension you are using. And most importantly, have fun!"
