A curly green Christmas tree wearing a red Santa hat with a fluffy white trim and pompom, standing in a red gift bag with a white bow. Its springy curls make it look soft and cosy – about 22 cm tall without the hat, a cheerful decoration for a shelf, windowsill or holiday table.

An easy crochet pattern by Tatiana Knittoy with step-by-step instructions and photos; a short wire inside the trunk keeps the tree upright and a cardboard circle gives the bag a flat base.
