The semi-cotton YarnArt “Jeans” yarn (50g/160m) was used for the Snowman. For crocheting toys, you can use any yarn according to the composition, but all colors must be of approximately the same thickness.

We will need the following colors:

You will also need:

  • Beads for eyes - 28mm, provided you choose the recommended yarn and hook size;
  • Small pieces of black and red felt for the mouth;
  • 2 black buttons with a diameter of 1.0-1.2 cm - for the belly of a larger snowman;
