Back Ear (make 2):
Using 3.25mm hook and with brown yarn, repeat rounds 1 and 2 of the front ear but in brown only.
Place the front ear panel on top of the back ear panel and crochet the two pieces together by crocheting around the two pieces in brown, joining them. Stuff lightly when you’ve crocheted about two-thirds of the way around. Join with a slst to first st and tie off. Poke the yarn tail back inside.
Antlers (make 4):
Using 3.25mm hook and using dark brown yarn.
Row 1: Ch 2, Sc 1 (1 st)
Rows 2-6: Sc 1 (1 st)
Row 7: Inc (2 sts)

Rows 9-11: Sc 1 (1 st)
Tie off. Rejoin yarn in the unworked st of row 7 and repeat rows 8-11. Tie off.
Repeat all of the above for the back panel. Weave in ends and trim them (so they don’t get in the way while joining). Place both panels together and sc around to join. You don’t need to stuff the antlers (there’s really no space to insert stuffing anyway!)
Repeat all of the above for the second antler.
Move on to assembly below!
Assembly:
Step 1: Face
First, we need to attach and stitch on our facial features to the front panel.
Stitch on the nose at the base of the brown stripe on the face.
Finally, stitch on a little mouth.
Step 2: Body, Ears and Antlers
Here are the pieces you should now have at this step.
Cut off two lengths of brown yarn approximately 30cm/12″ long each and set them aside for later.
Place the two panels together, matching up all sides and colours.
Make sure the front of Rudolph is facing you as you crochet around the outside.
Starting on the left side, in the middle where the white section starts, begin attaching the panels together by single crocheting around the outside of the panels starting in white.
Be sure to crochet loosely around so that the edge keeps it’s nice curve!
Crochet down and around the bottom and up the other side; switch to brown yarn where appropriate.
Stop after two or three stitches and pull up a loop.
Now we will attach the first ear and antler. The ear will overlap the antler slightly; feel free to stitch these together first before stitching them between the panels if it’s easier for you.
With your tapestry needle and a length of yarn that you set aside earlier, place the ear and the antler between the panels just to the right of the end of the last row of the panels. Stitch in place by stitching through all three pieces, the back panel, the ear/antler and the front panel. Once in place, tie a knot in the yarn tails and hide them between the panels.
Continue crocheting around. When you get to the ear/antler, sc in the stitches of the front panel only. This section is already sewn shut so it’s just for looks!
Stuff your ornament firmly now!
Continue crocheting both panels together as normal once past the antler, topping up stuffing as you go.
Place and stitch on the second antler and ear the same way you did for the first.
Top up stuffing. Use the back of your crochet hook to even out the stuffing and keep the shape nice and round.
When you are satisfied with the stuffing, close with a slst to first st. Tie off. With your tapestry needle, poke the yarn tail back inside the piece. Add the loop for hanging, and you’re done!
