Still have no idea what you could give for Christmas, and just money or a gift certificate feels too boring?
How about a
colorful kangaroo?
They are crocheted in no time, and the pouch still has room to tuck away small gifts, gift certificates, or money.
You don't need much at all for one kangaroo:
Some leftover yarn in the color of your choice, a little stuffing or similar, safety eyes (if desired), and a key ring/mini carabiner.
You should know the following: crocheting in rounds, crocheting in rows, chain stitches, single crochet, decreases and increases.
But the pattern is written in great detail and is also absolutely
suitable for beginners.
