About this crochet pattern
This pattern makes a whimsical green hand gripping a red Christmas ornament, for a playful holiday greeting. Display it as a door hanger that hangs over the top of a door, a lightweight tree ornament, or a shelf sitter on a mantel with the bulb dangling over the edge.
A wire armature holds the fingers in a classic pose. The pattern is intermediate and assumes comfort with detailed assembly, working with wire and basic shaping. The HTML version can be saved to Google Drive or a phone or tablet, so you can read it without zooming.
