CROCHET CHRISTMAS BELLS

CROCHET PATTERN

Cling and clang! ♩ Jingle bells ♫, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg ♬. Batmobile lost a ♪ wheel and Joker got away ♬!

This version of the One Horse Open Sleigh song dates back to the 1930’s after the first Batman appearance. ( Source: https://worldhistorycommons.org/jingle-bells-batman-smells )
