I have a family member that loves decorating for Christmas as much as I do, but they are a master at it, and their collection of adorable Christmas items way outnumbers mine! Her first request was for a Crochet Mr. and Mrs. Santa Clause, then it was a Snowman, and now it is Crochet Rudolph and his girlfriend. We have been having a blast adding to our collection of Christmas Heirlooms. If you would like to make a crochet Mr. and Mrs. Santa Clause and/or Snowman, here is the direct link to the blog post:

Approximate Measurements: Height 14 inches and width 11.5 inches.

GENERAL MATERIALS LIST: You can mix and match yarn colors for different looks. Just be aware that different yarn choices can change the look and size of your crochet Reindeer when finished. Also, changing your crochet hook size, will also affect the size of your crochet Reindeer. The following are the materials that I used:

Crochet Hook Size 3.75mm
– 1 Tapestry/Darning Needle
A pair of Scissors.
– 1 pair of Safety Doll Eyes 30mm Comical Eyes (Buy in Bulk. Prime Eligible) (If you just want a couple to start; go to 6060 eyes) Optional Safety Doll Eyes 15mm and 1 sheet of white glitter felt (buy in bulk). Embroidery scissors (Amazon Choice and Prime Eligible) help to make the small “x” in the glitter felt; to fit the Safety doll eye through.
– Optional: Dritz Upholstery Needle 12 inches. The Upholstery needle makes it easier to attach the moveable crochet legs.
-1 Jingle Bell 12mm per Reindeer crochet collar: Jingle Bell 12mm in bulk, you may like multi-colored jingle bells 12mm in bulk (Double check the price should be $6.00 or less and prime eligible).
– Craft stuffing. I recommend inexpensive pillow stuffing.

Yarn that I used:

-1 skein Main color for Reindeer You will need to use 2 skeins if you use more of the Main color for the body of the reindeer.
-Optional: 1 skein 100% acrylic Medium 4 Bright Red yarn color for a red nosed Reindeer and/or the Reindeer Collar. You only need 1 small skein of pink for the female reindeer collar and bow. Here is the same yarn color that I used in a larger skein pink yarn in super Saver size that I used for the female Reindeer.
-1 skein 100% acrylic Medium 4 Black (or Dark Brown) yarn color for a regular nosed Reindeer. I found this value black yarn that is part wool for a great price and is prime eligible. You can use the leftover yarn for another fun crochet project.
-1 skein 100% acrylic Medium 4 Dark Brown yarn color for your Reindeer antlers and Reindeer hooves.
-1 skein 100% acrylic Medium 4 yarn Beige (or White) yarn color for the alternate color.  I think that you will love this Fashion Soft beige colored yarn that is prime eligible.

If you are making your crochet Reindeer for a child, you can make your own activity booklet, to go with your crochet Reindeer, with the free PDF downloadable files available below.

If you like how I made mine in the picture above, I used a hole punch (Amazon Prime eligible) and Multi-colored Rings that open (Amazon Prime Eligible)

I like the rings that open, because you can remove the activity sheets easier.  I found all of the following activity sheets free online. These are just a few of the ones that I printed for my family:
