Cook Nutcracker (Mary Lake-Thompson and Carolyn Taggart)

Carolyn Taggart just finished this fabulous nutcracker from Mary Lake-Thompson/Melissa Shirley.

Note that this is the 18 count version, not the original 13 count.  Carolyn's guide for this should be available about now.  Use Facebook's Messenger to send Carolyn a note if you are interested in getting her guide.  Your favorite shop can get the canvas from Melissa Shirley for you.

By the way, there is an ornament of just the nutcracker head with the tops of some of the candy canes and also a full stocking version of this nutcracker.  I imagine with some tweaking that Carolyn's guide would work for all of them.
