This little knit gingerbread man from Knits’ End is just too cute!
I love the idea of a gingerbread man as an alternative to that weird elf everyone is always on about. Or if you have a child who loves the gingerbread man/girl/baby stories (like mine!) this would be a great little gift to whip up to go with a story book or to use in acting out the stories.
The project is worked flat in one piece, with the body knit first and then stitches are picked up for the head. There’s one long seam when you are done, but that makes it easy to stuff as you stitch.
Who on your list needs a knit gingerbread man? I think I’ll be making one soon!
