The Pink Nosed Reindeer (with pattern)

I'm a slow starter, at the late November the Mall already begin decorating their shop in Red and Green, while me just getting the holiday spirit 10 days before Christmas.

Instead of making traditional Red and Green Christmas ornament, I made a little twist.  it's a coincidence actually, I got free yarns from Mbak Oty (@Rajutanmama), the colors are pink and black.  I love Pink, I hate Black, but I love the combination.  So I made a black Reindeer with a shinny shocking pink nose :)

I think it's okay to add some dark color to the season of joy, isn't the light looks brightest in the dark?

since it's Holiday, I'm sharing the pattern too:
