Snow Friends
Introducing our adorable Snow Friends knitting pattern! Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, these charming little figures are designed to be knit in the round, utilizing either the Magic Loop method or double-pointed needles for an enjoyable experience. As you craft each delightful character, the feet, base/body, arms, and head are seamlessly knitted together, making construction easy and fun. The whimsical sweaters are permanently attached, adding to their unique charm. Each Snow Friend stands at approximately 7 ½” tall (without the hat) and uses around 250 yards of #3-light weight (DK weight) yarn, ensuring a lovely finished piece suitable for display or gifting.
For creating each Snow Friend, you will need the following yarn:
- White Color: 100 yards of Red Heart Baby Hugs in Frosting
- Contrast Color #1: 100 yards of either Lion Brand Baby Soft in Little Boy Blue or Stylecraft Special DK in Candyfloss
- Contrast Color #2: 50 yards of either Lion Brand Jamie in Angel White or Bernat Softee Baby in Flannel
- Orange Color: A small amount of Red Heart Anne Geddes Baby in Tangerine
To add the finishing touches to your Snow Friends, you'll need safety eyes (8mm) or you can use embroidery thread or yarn for the eyes and mouth. Additionally, a 2” diameter plastic canvas circle can serve as a sturdy base for your charming creations—feel free to cut this from a larger rectangle piece if needed.
**IMPORTANT NOTE:** If you prefer a different texture, you can substitute #4-worsted weight (Aran/10-ply) yarn. However, please keep in mind that using this weight will result in a larger finished item. Whether you’re looking to create a delightful décor piece or a thoughtful handmade gift, our Snow Friends knitting pattern is sure to bring joy to anyone who encounters these happy little companions!
Start your knitting adventure today and enjoy crafting these endearing Snow Friends – perfect for the holiday season or year-round cheer!
