Join me in crocheting KRAMPUS crochet amigurumi! This character, half demon and half goat, comes from Alpine folklore—the other side of Saint Nicholas.
According to tradition, children are told that Krampus comes to punish them, either whipping them with branches or carrying them away in his sack.
I’d love to see your finished amigurumi, so don’t forget to tag me on my social media @patixy_crochet.
