Hearty Snowman

Hearty Snowman.
The finished snowman in the hat is approximately 6,7 inches (17cm) tall. Without hat 3,95'' (10cm).

Materials needed
• 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric. İ used Needles size US 2½ (3mm).
• White, red and blue yarns. I used Nako Bonbon Amigurumi / 100% acrylic ; 100gr – 170m /
• Toy stuffing
• Yarn needle
• Stitch holder
• 2 buttons for eyes
• 2 twigs for hands

All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams .
