Serafina handmade many Christmas gifts this year. She crocheted a bunch of amigurumi-style stuffed figures for her friends. Some were by request, others she gave as surprises.

She created a reindeer, a few ninja turtles, a racoon, a couple of cute bats, an axolotl, a dragon, a Kirby, and (my favourite) the very cute Gimli from The Lord of the Rings.

Thread a loop of yarn through the top and you have a hanging ornament. Attach a keychain clip and that works to hang from a bag or backpack.

Her friends loved them!
