I used acrylic yarn (Scheepjes Colourcrafter/Stylecraft Special dk), which is
295 m/ 322 yards per 100 gram, and a 3.5 mm hook, head, nose and arms with
a 3.0 mm hook.
My snowman windspinner was about 6.5 cm/2.5 inches diameter and 10 cm/4 inches high.
You can use other yarn thicknesses, the spinner will be bigger or smaller in that case.
For this pattern you need:
-about 35 meters of yarn in total, most of it white
Apart from the white, you need some black, orange, red and brown yarn.
-some stuffing
-a cord for hanging the spinner. A single string of your yarn will work too.
-optional: some beads
