Nutcracker Square
"My sixth Christmas graph is a Nutcracker. Nutcracker dolls, also known as Christmas Nutcrackers, originate from late-17th century Germany. They were given as gifts and eventually became associated with the Christmas season. These square graphs are the perfect size for baby loveys, pillow covers (although I'd recommend going down a hook size to an H/5mm), one square of a larger blanket, one side of a tote bag, or as wall art (just add a dowel rod and hang it up!)."
