Wrap the 12″ piece of yarn around the yarn a few times (Pic 5-6). Do this tightly to secure. Now, cut the loops of yarn as shown (Pic 7-10). Be sure to cut all the longer pieces of yarn off to get a puffy ball. Finally, sew the pom pom to the top of the hat.

  1. I just live your patterns. I can’t get out often because I have seizers. So doing crochet is away for me to do crafts and relax and have fun. Thank you so much for sharing your gift to us that can’t get out. We are blessed beyond!!!!!!!

    1. Hi Karen! Aw you are so kind, it just makes my day hearing that these patterns bring you joy 🙂 I’m sure dealing with seizures isn’t easy, but it’s really awesome that you’ve found crochet a great way to relax and have some fun! Thank you so much for your kind comment <3

  2. Love the Snowman!

    Could you pleased Tell me which pastel Rainbow yarn you used?

    Thank you very much!

    1. Hi Kate! I’m so happy that you like the snowman, I hope you have fun with the pattern! 🙂 The pastel yarn is an old discontinued Red Heart. Discontinued yarn tends to be kind of price-y sadly, but I found very similar yarn that you can buy! Here it is: https://www.yarnspirations.com/caron-jumbo-yarn/294009.html?dwvar_294009_color=Baby%20Rainbow#start=25&sz=12

      Please feel free to let me know if I can help answer any other questions 🙂 Thanks so much for the kind words ❤️

  3. About how tall is the snowman? I was going to make a “family” of them for ornaments as a gift.

    1. Hi Julie! I think these snowmen come out to around 7″ tall, but you can definitely try to make them smaller for ornaments! I would recommend using a size 1 yarn paired with a small hook, such as a 3mm hook 🙂 Here is the yarn I like to use for making small amigurumis https://hobbii.com/yarn/rainbow-cotton-8-4

      Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions! ❤️ I hope your family loves the gifts 🙂

  4. Lovely snowmen. Lots of detail for a beginner at making toys. Thank you.

    1. Thank you so much Susanne 😍 I’m happy you found the pattern helpful, let me know if you have any questions!

  5. Hi! Is this worked in a continuous round or do you join at the end of each round?
    Thanks! Can’t wait to start!

    1. Hi Ruby! This pattern is worked in continuous rounds, so no need to join and turn 🙂 Please let me know if I can help answer any other questions! ❤️

  6. Such a adorable snowman! Loved the pattern and thank you so much for sharing this. Love from India.

  7. Thank you for these patterns, I love them. I made the little snowman, but his hat came out pointy. I don’t know why. It’s still pretty cute, but I wonder what I did wrong. Anyway. I’m going to try to make the whole set. I don’t know if I can finish it before Christmas or not, but I finished a snowman and started working on Santa. 🙂 Thanks a lot.

  8. So o got to the hat part and notices the last row says DC. At first I thought decrease but realized earlier that was written as dec, so can someone let me know what the DC in the last row of the hat is?

  9. Cute little pattern! Easy to make. I wish I left the eyes up a bit higher though. But very easy! I’m keen to try more patterns thank you!

  10. I made these back in 2021 for a friends grandkids. Now that I have grandkids I am making them again. Absolutely adorable and the kids love them.
