If it's Santa I want it. If it's crochet , get out of my way. I love to make them because with the grand kids wanting to look at and touch everything I love non breakable so around. Plus it's Santa! Who wouldn't love this little guy? I have to make one for each grand child and put their initials on the bottom so there won't be any mix ups.
