Step 4: Add the Coal Buttons and Mouth (Black Embroidery Thread)

  • Embroider 3 small black French knots down the front of the body for buttons
  • Embroider a curved smile made of small black French knots or backstitch below the nose

Step 5: Crochet the Top Hat (Black or Contrasting Yarn)

  • Round 1: 6 sc in magic ring (6)
  • Round 2: inc around (12)
  • Round 3: sc, inc repeat (18)
  • Round 4: sc 2, inc repeat (24)
  • Rounds 5-8: sc around (24) — 4 rounds (this forms the tall part of the hat)
  • Round 9: sc 2, inc repeat (32) — creates a brim flare
  • Round 10: sc around (32)
  • Fasten off, sew onto the top of the head, slightly tilted for a playful look

Step 6: Crochet the Scarf (Colorful Yarn)

  • Ch 25 (adjust length as desired)
  • Row 1: sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across
  • Rows 2-3: ch 1, turn, sc across
  • Fasten off, leaving long tails at each end
  • Add fringe to both ends using the fringe/latch-hook technique
  • Wrap around the neck where the head meets the body, and tack in place with a few stitches

Step 7: Crochet the Arms (Brown Yarn — “Twig” Style, Make 2)

  • Ch 8 (no turning, this forms a thin twig-like arm)
  • Sl st back along the chain to reinforce
  • Leave a long tail at the end for sewing
  • Sew to the sides of the body at a slight upward angle

Step 8: Make the Mini Broom

  • Take a small wooden dowel, toothpick, or piece of stiff wire (about 1.5-2 inches long) as the broom handle
  • Wrap brown or tan yarn around the bottom inch of the handle in a fan shape, securing with glue at the top of the “bristles” and trimming the ends evenly
  • Place the broom into one of the snowman’s twig arms, securing with a small dab of glue or a few stitches


Step 9: Finishing Touches

  • Weave in all loose ends
  • Gently shape the hat and scarf for a natural, cozy look
  • Optional: add small white “snowflake” embroidery details to the scarf for extra winter charm

Tips for the Perfect Amigurumi Snowman

  • For a frostier look, use a sparkly or metallic white yarn for the body
  • This pattern is easily adapted into a snowman family by making different sizes — stack a small one on top of a larger one for a “snowman couple” display
  • A tiny pom-pom on top of the hat adds extra charm and texture
