Free Pattern for this crochet Snowman Motif at end of this post
I know it's a while to Christmas, but we crafters need time to make special handmade gifts, so here's a free pattern I made for a Snowman Motif...
This crochet snowman is designed to be an applique that can be sewn onto another project. Here he is before I sewed him onto the stocking (99p from Hobbycraft). He's a snowman with attitude & is supposed to be on a jaunty angle! He's about 5.5" tall...
I used 4ply (Sports Weight) PATONS cotton yarn and a 2mm (B) hook.
Here are the components ready to be sewn together...
This is a fairly easy crochet project for a beginner/novice and will let you practice crocheting rows and in the round too. Hope the free downloads are useful and don't forget I would love to see any projects you make (don't be shy leave a comment or link).
Just so you know, the names used for crochet stitches in the USA and UK are NOT the same and can be very confusing, so make sure to download the free pattern for USA or UK terms.

I'm back from a blog break which included painting and decorating and a getaway to London with dh (post to follow).
Glad you're back again. Missed you! Loved the snowman - what a nice idea. Will speak soon. Love xxx
