Four Christmas characters with details that spill beyond the tote

Materials and finished size
Use 2.0 mm woven craft cord, held TWO strands together for the body and ONE strand for the handles; DK cotton for the character pieces and snow-cap rim; a 22 x 10 cm pre-punched base with 52 holes; and a pre-sewn fabric liner. Hooks: 3.5 mm body and snow-cap, 2.5 mm tabs, 3.0 mm handle tubes and DK character pieces. Add needles, markers, sewing thread, polyester stuffing and measuring tape. The reindeer uses a small bell and ribbon; thin craft wire, tape, pliers and wire cutters are optional for the antlers.
Shopping allowances per tote: 600 m / 656 yd of the main cord colour, plus DK cotton in the per-colour amounts printed in the PDF. At the stated gauge the flattened shell measures about 27.8 cm across the side folds and 20 cm high above the base; each handle tube is about 28 cm long. The main fronts are 21 cm wide. Body colours are red, icy blue, caramel and chestnut. The snowman, gingerbread man and reindeer have no mouths.
Intermediate level. Sizes depend on gauge, shaping and sewing. Spot clean and dry flat. Keep wire ends folded, taped and enclosed. Decorative tote, not a toy. Digital PDF crochet pattern only; no finished tote or materials are included.
