Bring a touch of handmade sparkle to your festive season with the King Cole Glitz DK Christmas Figures Knitting Pattern 9233. Designed as charming covers to slip over oranges — or to hide a cheeky chocolate orange — these delightful characters add fun, colour and cosy creativity to your Christmas celebrations. Whether displayed on your table, tucked onto a mantelpiece or gifted as a sweet surprise, each figure brings a little extra magic to the holidays.

This pattern includes instructions to knit five adorable festive friends: Santa, Elf, Polar Bear, Penguin and Snowman. Each design uses the beautifully sparkly King Cole Glitz DK in various shades, paired with the soft fluffiness of King Cole Truffle 4365 Coconut (White). You’ll also need small oddments of Big Value DK 50g and Dollymix DK to complete the details. The finished figures measure approximately 14 to 17.5cm, making them perfect for decorating, gifting or adding a playful touch to your Christmas table.

The pattern requires 3.5mm and 3mm knitting needles, along with toy filling to shape each character. Full material requirements are shown in the images, and suitable yarns can be found in the related items below. A fun, festive project for knitters who love seasonal makes with personality and sparkle.
