Knit a sweet little snow mouse from this easy and free pattern! You can make one in an evening, for a quick gift or decoration. Adjust the size of your creation by simply changing your yarn weight and needle size. The snow mouse looks great in a plain white yarn, but is also fun to knit from a textured or sparkly yarn. The yarn used for the smaller size was Knit Pick’s Palette yarn, in Cream and Doe. The yarn used for the medium size was Loops & Threads Flecks, in the soft rainbow colour. There are two arm options available, depending on your available materials, desired look, and skill level.
