Please visit my If You Want To Knit a Snowman Free Knitting Machine Pattern if you want to view details on how I put my snowman together, or download the free PDF below.
This year I aded a patch onto my snowman with the year, I think since I am going to be making these every year it is a good idea to add the year that way in 10 years I will know when I made a particular snowman. These patches are available in my Etsy Shop 🙂
Oh and Add a tag 🙂
I made little tags to go with the snowman and I have them available for free, just click on the link below to download.
