Squishy Round Reindeer Plushie — Crochet Pattern (PDF)
This squishy reindeer is shaped like a little pumpkin: a ribbed ball made from a simple rectangle of back-loop single crochet, gathered at both ends and cinched into soft segments. A wide cream muzzle, round red nose, sleepy embroidered eyes, rosy cheeks and golden branching antlers turn it into the cutest Christmas cuddle. No safety eyes are needed, so it is a great choice for gifts.
