Standup nutcrackers

Each of these nutcrackers has an optional stitch guide by Terry Christopher. I saw her finished models at the Long Beach show and loved the idea of these charming stand-ups for the 12 days of Christmas. I would place them on a mantel, a table, or as decoration for a holiday dinner table. As I often say, a stitch guide is like having a private lesson (and you can wear your jammies.). And…it’s just a guide—if a stitch makes you crazy, do something else!
