This cute little snowman works up quickly using size 10 cotton crochet thread, making him a fun and easy holiday project! His body is crocheted in one piece, along with his adorable hat and nose, so there’s minimal assembly.

Turn your snowman into either a Christmas ornament or a festive pin simply by adding a hanging loop or pinback. Two scarf options are included—choose a braided scarf or a corded scarf, with written instructions provided for both.

These cheerful little snowmen are perfect for decorating your Christmas tree, adding a festive touch to your favorite outfit, or giving as thoughtful handmade gifts to family and friends!

The pattern includes written instructions for the 3 crochet pieces and the 2 styles of scarf, as well as snowman assembly instructions (to make the pin or the ornament) and some step-by-step photos.
