Snowmen Tinsel Chunky Knitting Pattern - 9030

£3.50
Knit festive, sparkling holiday decorations with this King Cole 9030 knitting pattern. Designed for chunky textured tinsel yarns paired with DK details, this pattern provides instructions to make three distinct sizes of standing snowmen, each complete with a matching textured bobble hat, striped scarf, knitted carrot nose, and button accents. The three sizes and accessory pieces require specific needle sizes; 3mm, 3.75mm, 4mm, 4.5mm, and 5mm, to create the varying scale and tight stitch gauge required to hold toy stuffing securely. We stock the printed pattern leaflet alongside a range of quality chunky and DK yarns right here in our shop, so you can easily choose your colours and cast on straight away.
