Santa ornaments

I'm trying to do some Santa ornaments, but it ain't easy! I found a really cute one on Pinterest, but the directions are in Polish.... Maybe my renter can help? I don't know if she crochets, tho. So I tried anyway just by looking at the graph, and here's the result:

So I tried with other yarn, still not good but better:

Now I went back to Pinterest and found a new design. This is looking much better!

I'm much happier with this! Just going to add some little black eyes and a loop to hang it with. These are perhaps going to be for the US Xmas market in December! 

Now for the final version - woo hoo!
