Crochet a delightful gingerbread house ornament with your choice of "frosting" roof (crocodile stitch) or "gumdrop" roof (popcorn stitch) and decorate it with buttons, ribbons, sequins, etc. Each gingerbread house can be decorated differently so you have a one-of-a-kind ornament for your Christmas tree. There's even instructions for making a chimney with Santa climbing down it. Make several matching Gingerbread Houses as teacher gifts, hostess gifts, a gift for Mom, and so many others.

Also included is the matching Gingerbread House Gift Bag Crochet Pattern with "frosting" roof (crocodile stitch). These bags make an excellent choice when gifting something small such as jewelry. Fill the bags with candy treats, and you have a great classroom gift!
