Today, I’m excited to share a rare and delightful gingerbread man crochet pattern with you! This unique Ragdoll Gingerbread Man is designed as a small keychain-sized toy, but with its detailed painted features, it’s also perfect for Christmas tree decorations or other holiday crafts. However, keep in mind that using it as a keychain may cause it to lose shape over time due to its delicate design.
Ragdoll Gingerbread Man Amigurumi Pattern
The crocheted gingerbread man features a charming hair design, adding an extra touch of personality to this festive toy. The designer estimates that it will take about 2 hours to complete this project, making it a quick and fun crochet challenge.
