Crochet Snowman Heads - Repeat Crafter Me

Let’s be honest, any time is a good time for snowman themed projects. They are so cute and irresistible! I’ve come up with some snowman heads (based on my Snowman Sack pattern) and they are so versatile that I think you could use them for many different projects. I have a specific project in mind and will show you that soon…But just to throw out some ideas, you could use these as bunting/garland, interior decor, little plush toys – especially if you crochet a body and make them a bigger snowman, hanging charms/oversized keychains, ornaments, lovey blanket topper, game of toss or snowball fight, and much more!

Use any color for the hats and make lots of these for the holidays! Finished size is approximately 4×4 inches. Snowman Belly Pot Holder - Free Crochet Pattern » Blackstone Designs.

I thought it would be nice to share a colourful bit of crochet with you today, something bright and cheerful and a just a teensy bit unnecessary.

I am all for a pretty little bit of creativity that brings happiness and colour to a small corner of the room, this sort of crochet is good for the soul.
