FINISHING

Attach safety eyes or buttons to the Head and glue ont the nose below the eyes. Firmly stuff the Head. Stuff the Hat lightly and sew it to the Head or hot glue gun it to the head. Firmly stuff the Body, sew Head to Body, sew the head to Body, sew to body, tie a scarf around the neck, weave in ends. Instead, I used a glue gun to attach the head, body, eyes, etc. I find that easier. I used all the buttons for the face and glued a piece of yarn for the mouth.

Next, you’ll work on the snowman’s body. Using the same white yarn, follow the pattern to crochet the different pieces for the body, including the cute little snowman’s scarf and winter accessories. Use single crochet and slip stitches to assemble the snowman’s body, keeping an eye on the type of yarn and colors you use for a festive touch.
