Snowman Wall Hanging

This jolly fellow would be great hanging on the front door to welcome friends, or just as a decorative wall hanging in the home. The Snowman Wall Hanging is an easy crochet pattern that helps you create your own flat snowman motif. You'll be working with multiple colors, both within the same piece and for separate pieces to sew together at the end, so if you're worried about color changes, don't be - this is an easy enough pattern to practice on. Hang this friendly crochet snowman on your front door or anywhere in your home to add a little bit of extra holiday cheer to your home this season.

NotesNotes:
-If a round or row has a beginning chain, it does not count as a stitch.
-Unless directed otherwise, rounds are worked in a spiral; use a stitch marker to track the first stitch of each round.
