Snow Family Ornament Pattern
by Elizabeth Mareno
An ad-free version is also available on ETSY or my website.
The snow people range from 3" to 4" tall
The Snow Family came about on a Winter trip from Florida to Michigan right around Christmas time. I made one snowperson to represent each one of us in colors that represented each person.
They are the perfect size to make a cute arrangement on a Holiday table, or you can add a loop and make them into ornaments! You can even change up your yarn and hook sizes and make them into larger amigurumi for gifts. I recommend using these to stash bust your way through the Holidays!!
