❄️ All the snow day magic, none of the shoveling

I grew up in the Rocky Mountains, where winters were full of cold days and even colder nights. I still love the calm and quiet of a gentle snowstorm. It’s so magical. If going out isn’t an option, why not curl up and make a snowy blanket and pillow?

The set is worked in super bulky yarn on a big hook, so it grows fast, and it’s rated Easy/Advanced Beginner. The matching pillow cover finishes with a simple button closure.
