The best part is that the only sewing you’ll need to do is to attach the facial features. Everything else is made all in one piece!

Snowman
Velvet yarn is a popular choice for amigurumi creations because it is so soft and snuggly. The fluffiness of the yarn lends itself perfectly to the appearance of snow for this adorable creation. Arms and accessories are crocheted separately using a thinner weight of yarn. My favorite part of this design is the hat because it reminds me of a viking helmet.

A smiling snowman is the perfect accent for your winter tablescape. This doily is made using the filet crochet technique which contrasts solid and hollow blocks against each other to form an image.

Amigurumi Snowman
As the song goes, you have to put the top hat on the snowman to bring him to life. This funny little guy has his top hat on at an angle but somehow that only seems to add to his charm. The original design was made in a thin DK weight yarn but you could use a thicker yarn weight and corresponding hook size if you want your snowman to turn out bigger.
