PLEASE NOTE: This is a PDF Knitting Pattern
Chilly Charlie The Snowman is a super cute little guy who will make a welcome addition to any Christmas display. Dressed in his top hat, scarf and mittens to keep him warm with a friendly robin to keep him company he’ll be loved by anyone who sees him.
He’s not too difficult to knit. You’d only need basic stitch knowledge i.e. knit, purl, stocking stitch, garter, cast off etc. I’ve used the iCord method for his broom handle and the picot stitch for his Holly leaves. Instructions are included within the pattern. I’ve also introduced a small amount of intarsia on the robin.
He is knitted flat using 3mm needles and DK yarn. I have used beads and wire and included the links within the pattern to the ones I used.
