Materials List

• Yarn: #3 / DK / light worsted yarn, 8ply, 80% cotton 20% Milk Fiber, in dark red for santa’s bag, any colour you like for the gifts (I use a local shop yarn, that I find quite thick for a #3, an equivalent would be Paintbox Cotton Aran but keep the 3.5mm hook to obtain tight stitches and avoid gaps where the fiberfill shows)
• Yarn: A small piece of fluffy white yarn like the Bernat Pipsqueak Whitey White
• olden yarn or decorative string to tie the bow on the gift and embroider the bag (the one I use is Milford Metallic, but not sure it ships to the US. I’ve found this one from Clisil brand that seems really similar).
• tapestry needle
• Fiberfill
• Stitch marker
