FREE AMIGURUMI RUDOLPH MOD FOR KOKESHI DOLLS

Since October flew by in a flash I am not ashamed to admit that I am already contemplating putting up Christmas decorations. I don’t think I can wait much longer!

To keep my Christmas mood going strong I am so excited to share this project with you! I created a Rudoplh Mod Kit for the
