Crochet Reindeer Pin Pattern – FREE PATTERN – Christmas Crochet – Reindeer – Crochet Holiday Gifts
Hi!
This pattern for reindeer pins was so fun to design. I was surprised I could figure out how to do the antlers. It took a few tries, but I think I got it to look right! You can use french knots to make the nose or just make the base your nose colour. Either way works!
Let’s get started!
