TeChniquesMake one Stitch

With your right hand needle, pick

up the ‘bar’ of yarn between the two

stitches on your left and right hand

needles. Slip the loop of yarn onto

your left hand needle and knit (or

purl) through the back of the stitch.

If you are increasing on the first

row of a pattern this technique can

be tricky and so I use the following

method instead:

Make a backwards loop on your

needle by twisting the yarn towards

you and slipping the resulting loop

onto the right hand needle. On the

following row knit or purl through

the back of the stitch. This produces

a very neat result.

making upTaking the body and head and starting at the cast-on end (body), gather the cast-on stitches and sew the seam for the body which will run up the back of the snowman, stuffing with toy filling as you go.

Pin the head together, stuffing with toy filling as you go. Using the pictures for guidance, position the safety eyes. When you are happy with their placement, remove the toy filling and the pins from the head and push on the backs of the safety eyes.

Sew the seam at the back of the head, stuffing with toy filling as you go. Gather and sew the cast-off edge together.

Taking the hat, sew the side seam and sew the top of the hat in place. Using the pictures for guidance, pin the hat to the top of the snowman’s head, placing a small amount of toy filling inside. When you are happy with it’s placement, sew carefully into place.

Sew the side seam of each cheek. Using the pictures for guidance, sew the cheeks in place and embroider the mouth using black yarn and straight stitches.

Sew the side seam of the nose and sew in place, placing a small amount of toy filling inside. Pin the arms in position and sew in place.

Taking the larger scarf section and using white yarn, embroider French knots along the scarf. I left five ‘purl ridges’ between each French knot. Repeat for the smaller scarf section. Using the pictures for guidance, sew the larger scarf section in place around the snowman’s neck and then attach the smaller scarf section. Finish off by embroidering the scarf tassels using green yarn and straight stitches.

Sew the side seam of each button. Pin the buttons in place and sew to the body. Embroider button holes on the buttons using black yarn and straight stitches. Pin the arms in place using the picture for guidance and then sew in place. Pin the buttons in place and sew to the body. Using the pictures for guidance, embroider button holes on the buttons using black yarn.

how To maKeRead through all the instructions

before you begin. Unless otherwise

stated, all the snowman pieces are

sewn together with one strand of

matching embroidery thread (e.g. to

sew his orange nose use one strand

of matching orange thread) so your

stitches will be as invisible

as possible.

Remember that you’ll be cutting

out the snowman shape to turn him

into an ornament, so keep all your

stitching within the snowman’s

outline. You don’t want to accidentally

snip your stitching when cutting out

the ornament!

1 Trace the templates and cut them out using craft scissors. Then use the templates to cut out the felt pieces in the colours marked on the template page. Roughly cut out a piece of felt slightly larger than the template, then hold or pin the template to the felt and cut around it carefully with embroidery scissors.

2 Place the white snowman shape and the black hat on a piece of bright pink backing felt, leaving enough space for a small felt border around the shape and plenty of room for the snowman’s arms. Pin the pieces in position so the snowman’s head slightly overlaps his hat (as shown) and sew both shapes in place with whip stitch. See Photo A.

3 Add the lime green band to the snowman’s hat with whip stitch – make sure to sew the band the right way up! See Photo C.

4 Use all six strands from a skein of turquoise embroidery thread (switching to a larger needle if required) to sew a thick line of backstitch around the snowman and his hat, as shown. Sew flush with the edge of the felt shapes you’re sewing around, this will give you a line to follow and keep things looking nice and neat. See Photo D.

5 Now add the small felt pieces to decorate the snowman. Sew his lime green scarf in place with running stitch. Add his pale pink cheeks with whip stitch, and his orange carrot nose with running stitch. Then add the three buttons as shown – sew the top button with an X of two stitches, and the other two buttons with a single stitch at a slight angle. See Photo F.

6 Use four strands of lime green embroidery thread to add the scarf’s fringe: sew four single stitches sticking out from the bottom of the scarf, as shown. Then decorate the scarf with French knots. Use three strands of white embroidery thread, wrapping the thread around your needle four times for each knot. Sew seven French knots in a horizontal line (I found it helpful to sew one knot at each end, one in the middle, then add the remaining knots in between to help space the knots evenly), then add three more knots on the dangling section of the scarf (I found it helpful here to sew the middle knot first). See Photo G.

7 Now use three strands of grey embroidery thread to give the buttons their “holes”. Sew four tiny single stitches on the top button, and two tiny stitches on each of the other two buttons. See Photo H.


matching backing shape in the same shade of pink. See Photo M

11Cut a length of narrow ribbon (14 or 15 cm long) and fold it over to form a loop. Sew the cut ends of the ribbon to the top of the backing shape, using thread to match the felt and whip stitch – sewing into the felt not through it. See Photo N.

12Place the front and back of your ornament together (so the ribbon ends and all your workings are sandwiched between the layers) and join the edges of the ornament with whip stitch or blanket stitch. Finish your stitching neatly at the back.

8 Trace the snowman’s arms onto small pieces of tissue paper using a ballpoint pen, then wait for the ink to be completely dry. You may find it helpful to label the arms left and right so you don’t muddle them up when stitching. Position the left arm so it lines up with the left-hand edge of the snowman, and secure the tissue paper with some large tacking stitches (you can use a single strand of any colour thread for this). Use backstitch and a full thickness of turquoise blue embroidery thread (all six strands) to sew the arm, following the lines of the tissue paper pattern. Then remove the tacking stitches and carefully tear away the tissue paper.Repeat this process to sew the right arm, positioning it so it overlaps the right-hand side of the snowman slightly as shown. See Photos I+J.

9 Now add the snowman’s eyes and smile with backstitch and three strands of black thread. You can sew these freehand if you’d like, or use the pattern provided and the tissue paper technique described in step 8. You may have to slightly adjust the size of the smile depending where you’ve sewn the felt nose and cheeks but the tissue paper pattern will still act as a useful guide for your stitching. Remember that small stitches make for smooth curves! Once you’ve removed the tissue paper (if you’ve used it), use single stitches to fill in the snowman’s eyes with more black thread. See Photos K+L.

10Carefully cut around the snowman, leaving a narrow border of felt around the design. Then use the shape you’ve just cut out as a template to cut a
