Its that time of year again ……. I have designed and written this pattern to share with you for knitted snowmen.
The snowmen are knitted then dressed onto a polystyrene cone. The cones measure 17cm in height and approx 6.5cm diameter. Mine where purchased from Hobbycraft UK.
The great thing about this pattern is that you can adjust the colours depending on what you have in your stash. The image above shows three snowmen in different colours. If you do intarsia on the hat I would suggest just adding a couple of stitches to allow for tension differences. The image above shows three different hats. Hope you enjoy.
The pattern is available here as a downloadable PDF.

Thank you so much for the pattern. For anyone who is having difficulty finding the cones in the UK, The Works sell 3 for £1. I should imagine in America you will find them at The Dollar Store.
Thanks for patterns guys.

I love these little guys, but Don’t know what you mean when you said 5ply yarn, where do you get that kind of yarn. According to the needles size. I’m assuming that it is very fine yarn?
Thank you Dorie for the question. The yarn is classed as DK (double knitting) Yarn in the UK, which I think is the equivalent of Light/8 ply in other countries.
Thanks! Plan on knitting a few as gifts for friends!
