Snowman 
Co 6  plus 1 to join in the round

knit around until you have desired height 
or if you need to know about how many rows for a short snowman knit about 33 rounds   -(this will make a snowman that measures about 5 inches high  )-


I now stuff the bottom
I put a little stuffing --then added a little rice--then more stuffing

I did this until I have 6 or 9 stitches
Then cut yarn and pulled through remaining stitches
Weave in end---

Sock Snowmen

Christmas Sock Snowmen --so very Easy

Buy White Socks


Cut White Sock  ..right now i am just using the top of the sock ...not the toe part

After I cut it i turn inside out and rubber band as below then turn right side



Then Fill with Rice   and Rubber band again at the top


Then i Cut the Sock ...Usually i Just Cut At The Heel  --The foot part i use as the Hat --The other part i am using as the Sweater 


i have been using the Band part of the sock at the Neck of the Snowman   and i will usually Tie a piece of Cotton Yarn at the neck of the snowman to define the neck ..and then just cover it up with the sweater


I found these Beads at michaels for the Eyes   this is what the package looked like after i took out the beads..I am hot gluing my Eyes on


For Eyes you can use Beads or Buttons...people have also used marker...


 I also Found These Beads below At michaels which i use for the noise ...you could also use Tooth picks cut in two and painted orange  or a pipe cleaner   or felt ...just use whatever works for you ..i am hot gluing them

For the Cheeks i have just put a little blush on my finger and put it on the sock !!




i have done many things for the snowmen them self    i have Crocheted a Brim and glued to the sock ...i have used the toe part of the white sock and put the pattern sock over it and glued them together for the hat .


Here are a few examples of what i have made !!  So Far I have been limited to what kind of socks. It was to early in the season for christmas socks











Good luck !!!
