Crochet Animal Ornaments...

...available as a FREE pdf pattern download on Craftsy!

Pattern Description: Fill of joy your Christmas tree with these little amigurumi animals that protect themselves from the cold winter. You can choose from a dog, cat, frog, crab, rabbit, owl and a mouse. Or maybe you can crochet them all!

I can see these as a great group project to raise funds for your local humane society during the holidays. Easy to make and great use of leftover yarns.

You know the scrap fabric stash they we all have?

I found a great way to use leftover scraps for FREE.  Here are just four 4 of  the 10 patterns that are available on Craftsy. Any or all of these patterns can be made using fabric leftover from other projects.

I'm thinking Christmas gifts, holiday craft table items or just a little something extra to keep on hand for last minute gift-giving.
