This looks neat. I can picture around Christmas time making a bunch of these, filling them with the usual and handing them out as little “not-quite-a-stockings” stocking lmao

Any due date? Yarn requirements? Also will it be free when released

For the due date, I would like it to be done by end of October, but I would be willing to accept if testers need longer than that.

It took me about 2 hours to finish, but I never truly timed myself with a timer.

I wasn’t planning to make it free, but I am working on another pattern which I do plan to make free.

As for yarn requirements, I used number 4 medium weight yarn to make mine. The sizing will probably be thrown off if you use a different weight yarn, but depending on what you decide to use it for, that may be fine with you. So, preferably with number 4 weight yarn, but its perfectly acceptable to use a different weight if you want to experiment. If you want it to fit the snowballs (which is not an included pattern, that is by a different crafter and explained in the intro to The Santa Sack) then you will want to stick to number 4 weight yarn. Colorwise, go whereever your heart desires.

I’ve contemplated making a bunch of fuzzy ones with a larger weight yarn and sticking socks (or something) in them as gifts. They would be great reusable giftbags! Plus, if using a bigger yarn makes it slightly stiffer, it would hold a bag of cookies quite nicely. You could also make a green version and attach crochet 4 leaf clover appliques to the end of the string tie, for a St. Patrick’s Day bag. You could fill it with yellow snowballs for gold, or a bunch of chocolate coins (though it could probably hold an absurd amount of those, since it easily fits 2 dozen standard size easter eggs).
