This little Snowman is one of four Christmas-themed patterns which I have had a lot of fun making. It is intended to be made by a fairly experienced knitter who is used to using DPNs, as the small size makes it unsuitable for circular needles. The three-page pattern might seem a bit complex to start with, but once you get going each little Snowman takes about an hour to make, using just a few oddments of yarn which you probably already have in your stash, and a very small amount of toy stuffing.

I've always knitted, sewn and painted, but it was the arrival of my two little darlings that got me making and designing toys and clothes for them. Now that I'm retired I have time to indulge them and myself!
