Deer Rudolph is a literary character who has become a symbol of Christmas. It is associated with many people with the New Year and Santa Claus. Rudolph is a small deer who is distinguished from others by his bright red nose, which is why everyone around him taunts and does not accept him in his company. However, this funny and unusual nose with its radiance helped Santa Claus to finish his Christmas tour on a foggy evening, after which the deer became a star among all its relatives.
This good story has been warming people's hearts for many years. Let's try crocheting a Rudolph deer. Consider what we need for this.
Tools and materials
Before crocheting a deer, you need to prepare the necessary materials and tools. You will need yarn and a suitable size hook. You will also need scissors and a needle with a large eye, which will be needed for sewing parts. To fill the product, holofiber is needed - it is hypoallergenic and does not deteriorate when washing. In addition, you need to prepare the eyes on the mount or beads, and for their sewing - thread floss. If all this already lies before you, then let's get started!

Now you need to connect all the details. Gently sew the head of a crocheted deer to his body. On the sides (at an equal distance), we sew the arms and legs equally. We place the white tummy on the torso in front. We fix the ears not quite on the crown, but a little further away, the horns, on the contrary. Sew a beige face on the head closer to the body, on top we sew the nose - closer to the top of the muzzle, in the middle. The eyes are placed on the sides of the muzzle. It remains only to beautifully tie a scarf specially crocheted for a deer.
That's all, deer Rudolph is ready!
