This snowflake is easy and fun to make! I like to make these snowflakes as plushies, but you can also make only one piece of the snowflake and string it together as a garland.
Let’s get started!
Snowflake: (Make 2)
Start in White
Round 1: 6 Sc into a Magic Ring (6)
Round 2: *Inc* all around (12)
Add eyes into Round 2, spacing 7 st apart.
Round 3: *Inc, Sc in the next st* all around (18)
In the following round we will make 6 peaks of the snowflake.
Round 4: *Sc in the next 2 st, Ch 3, Sc in the 3rd Ch from the hook. Sc in the next st* 6 times (24)
We have created 6 white peaks for the snowflake. Each peak is made up of 3 stitches. In the next round, only crochet in the 2nd stitch (the middle stitch) of each peak. Crochet regularly on areas that are not the peak.
Round 5: Change to blue. Repeat *Inc, Sc in the next 3 st* (30)
Round 6: Repeat *Inc, Sc in the next 4 st* all around (36)
Round 7: Repeat *Inc, Sc in the next 5 st* all around (42)
Now we will make the peaks. Make a Sc in each stitch until you meet the middle between two white peaks (Pic 1). In this middle spot, create a peak by doing *Dc, Trc, Dc in same st*. Continue making a Sc in each st until you meet the next middle area.
How to embroider the snowflake:
Smile:
In Black Embroidery Thread
Insert needle into the middle area of the toy as shown (Pic 1) and pull needle out at the left of the toy’s eye as shown (Pic 1). Reinsert needle into the middle of the toy (Pic 2) and pull needle out next to the toy’s right eye (Pic 2). Reinsert needle into the middle of the toy as shown (Pic 3) and pull needle out nearby. Tie ends of thread into firm knots and bring knots inside the toy to hide. Cut any excess yarn.

Assembly:
In Blue
Align both snowflake pieces together so the stitches align with one another. Crochet these pieces together by inserting your crochet hook through BOTH pieces of the snowflake, working through the single crochets. Follow this pattern:
SlSt in each St until you meet a peak. When you meet a peak, Sc in the next st, Ch 2, Sc in the 2nd Ch from the hook. Then, continue making a SlSt in each st until you meet the next peak. Repeat making peaks when you meet them.
Done! If you made this snowflake, I would LOVE to see! You can show me by posting a picture in the comments underneath this post!
