CROCHET PATTERN

There has been so many requests for this 2017 "12 Days of Christmas" treat, that after 5 years - I thought it might be a nice Christmas gift to give to new followers of FDbyK4TT and 2nd opportunity to hook this one up for anyone who missed it the first time around.

So.. is this Halloween?  or Christmas??
