Today marks the beginning of our FOURTH annual Plaid Week! I won’t lie to you, the projects are getting tricker to come up with each year, but I have rather enjoy the opportunity to think a bit more outside the box. I came up with the idea for snowmen this summer and had so much fun during the design process. This darling little sheepskin and crochet snowman family turned out so cute they earned the spot for day one this week.
My kids think they are absolutely adorable and I have to agree! These tiny accessories are very fun to make. I tried to include a few unique pieces so you could mix and match to your liking.

xoxo,
thanks, so much!
Will the big snowman’s hat and scarf fit the little snowman??
Yes it will, the smaller snowman is obviously a bit smaller, so the hat will be a bit looser, but it will work!
These are so freakin cute!! I was so excited to get started. Made my first one last night…the 8″/10″ small one and mine looks huge in comparison to your pics. May I ask how big/tall in inches are your snowmen? I’m just trying to get a reference point. I created my diameter circles with my Cricut and may have made them too big perhaps lol??
Thanks!!

Thanks! My mom actually saw them in real life last week and commented they looked much larger than the photo made her believe they were, haha! Whoops! I should have my kids hold them for reference in a new photo. The tall ones are approx. 9″ and the little one is approx. 7″.
haha! Yeah that is probably a good idea. Thank you for the info and great pattern!! :)
So stinkin’ cute!
oh my gosh! simply love the hats and scarves, and of course, the snowmen:) so cute. thanks for sharing Beth!

Thank you!
May I ask where you got your sheepskin fabric from? I’m having a hard time finding some.
Yes! I got it at Joann Fabrics. Do you live near one of those?
It’s about an hour away but tried to look on their website and when I type in sheepskin fabric, nothing comes up.
I just found it listed online at JoAnn’s as “faux fur sherpa” – https://www.joann.com/luxury-faux-fur-sherpa-fabric–white/14387625.html Hobby Lobby also – https://www.hobbylobby.com/Fabric-Sewing/Flannel-Fleece-Fabric/Fleece-Fabric/White-Sherpa-Fleece-Fabric/p/80946204?gclid=CjwKCAjwxt_tBRAXEiwAENY8hWbPfyzhQP4aN4RsYAA_v87_l920cVYE6NfrHwGmHfe5kCwt_ZCVuxoCEDQQAvD_BwE
