Hoooked: Elf on the Shelf - DIY Crochet Kit

Have you heard of the Elf on the Shelf? Each year, during the Christmas holiday season, Santa Claus dispatches some of his special elves - the Scout Elves - to every family home to assist him in overseeing his "nice list" by reporting on each family's positive and negative activities. Every morning, you'll discover his little helper in a new location, as he adores playing hide and seek. Craft your Elf and embark on a festive adventure during the Christmas season!
