Pauline designed this camel toy pattern for a craft magazine’s Christmas in July issue back in 2009. Chrissy’s has button-jointed legs which makes her a more advanced pattern. I don’t recommend her for beginners but the added bonus is that you can add some bright funky coloured Christmas buttons for decoration
