Amigurumi Snowman

Posted on Nov 18, 2009 in Paper Bead Creations | 7 comments

If you crochet and you have not tried making amigurumi dolls, you’re missing out on something really fun and easy to do.  They are done using single crochet in the rounds with no joins, just make sure you use a marker to do this.  Sometimes your “creativeness” just need a jump start and a catalog from our local college sparked my interest, I thought it is funny and just appropriate for us living in California.

I found a pattern for my amigurumi snow man at a Michael’s site, I know Lion Brand Yarn has also good amigurumi toy patterns.  I made mine with the cover of the catalog as inspiration, to make him even more interesting I made him  a paper bead scarf made from 5mm round paper beads.

I had fun with Mr. California Snowman this morning……him on top of my hanging plant which is dead around this time, but usually comes to life in spring.  The spot he is sitting on is where I have bird’s nest every year, right now it is empty.
