These Gingerbread People are crocheted from the top down in un-joined rounds from the head to the feet, then the arms are made separately and sewn on. Once completed, decorations are embroidered on.

You will be instructed to place a removable stitch marker on the first stitch of the round. Move the marker up each round to continue to track the first stitch of each round.
