Introduction: Amigurumi – Crochet Snowman “Sven”

Before you start crocheting the Amigurumi Snowman, it’s advisable to prepare a bit. Here you will find comprehensive information about the required prerequisites, materials, and size. Additional help can be found through the corresponding additional links.

Attention! Amigurumis are very cute and, therefore, not only popular among adults. Children often see them as toys, so you should be especially careful. Amigurumis that are not intended for play should be kept out of the reach of children. If an Amigurumi is meant to be played with by children, you should strictly adhere to the guidelines for toys. If you plan to give away or sell Amigurumis (license for sellers), you must strictly adhere to the legal requirements for toys and display the required CE marking.

Prerequisites

To easily implement this crochet pattern for an Amigurumi Snowman, you should already be familiar with the following crochet techniques. If you are not familiar with all of them yet, you will find detailed tutorials here to learn them.

  • Decreases
  • Double Crochet Stitches (UK!)
  • Increases
  • Magic Ring
  • Slip Stitches
  • Spiral Rounds

Note! By offsetting regular increases and decreases, they become almost invisible. You can recognize regular increases by the phrase “double every … stitch,” and regular decreases by the phrase “crochet together every … and … stitch”. The stitch chart for spheres and circles might also be helpful for you.

Note! Using a special technique for invisible decreases makes them nearly invisible. Although this technique requires a bit of practice, it’s worth giving it a try.

Supplies

To crochet the depicted Amigurumi Snowman, the following materials were used. The Amigurumi Snowman can also be crocheted with a different yarn if an appropriate needle size is used. To achieve a comparable result, I recommend using materials that are as similar as possible. In the following list, you will find, in addition to the materials, all the necessary tools and supplies.

Crochet Hook

You will need a crochet hook with a size of 12 (british). For converting to other sizes, the crochet hook size converter will help you. I have selected some great crochet hooks for you here.

Crochet Hook

You will need a crochet hook with a size of 8 (british). For converting to other sizes, the crochet hook size converter will help you. I have selected some great crochet hooks for you here.

Filling

For filling, I used synthetic filling made of 100% polyester. However, there are numerous alternatives for filling material. If you’ve run out of filling, I’ve prepared a refill for you here.

Paint

I used acrylic paint in the shade of red here. This paint is non-toxic, water-dilutable, waterproof, and adheres to almost any surface. I found a great set of acrylic paints for you to try out here.

Pins

You’ll also need a few pins. The more colorful your collection, the better. If you need more, I’ve found something for you.

Safety Eyes

I used 2 safety eyes with a diameter of 1/4 inches. The eyes are completely black. However, there are countless alternatives for amigurumi eyes. You might prefer other safety eyes as well.

Scissors – any

You’ll need any scissors. It’s best to use your most beautiful scissors because it brings you joy. If you don’t have really nice scissors, I’ve picked out some lovely ones for you.

Wool Needle

You’ll need a wool needle with a blunt tip. The thickness of the wool needle should match the thickness of your yarn. You might like the set of wool needles I’ve picked out for you.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 106 – weiß

I used yarn in the shade White. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Yarn – Schachenmayr – Catania – 281 – orange

I used yarn in the shade Orange. The material is 100% cotton. The yardage is 137 yds / 1.75 oz. If you want to replenish your supply, I’ve already picked out the matching yarn for you here.

Yarn – Twister Curly / Joker / Schöller Record – red

I used yarn in the shade of Red here. The material is made of 100% cotton. The running length is 85 m / 50 g. If you want to replenish your stock, I’ve already selected the suitable yarn for you.

Yarn – Twister Curly / Joker / Schöller Record – white

I used yarn in the shade of White here. The material is made of 100% cotton. The running length is 85 m / 50 g. If you want to replenish your stock, I’ve already selected the suitable yarn for you.

Note! I have used safety eyes here. If you have never attached safety eyes before, you can also find detailed instructions on how to attach safety eyes here. In addition to a wide selection of other safety eyes, there are also numerous alternatives for amigurumi eyes. Simply use the eyes that you like best.

Note! The specified yarn was used for the example shown here. In principle, you can use any yarn and an appropriate needle size. However, the quality of the material also affects the quality of the result, so you should avoid cutting corners in the wrong place. Also, the thickness of the yarn and the needle will influence the size of the outcome, which you can, of course, intentionally take advantage of.

Size

Here are the size specifications for the crocheted Amigurumi Snowman. The height was measured standing without a hat. Please note that the actual size depends on the yarn used, the size of the crochet hook, and individual crochet tension.

Needle SizeYardageSize
Crochet Hook 12137 yds / 1.75 oz6 1/5 inch
Crochet Hook 11120 yds / 1.75 oz?
Crochet Hook 9 or 1093 yds / 1.75 oz?

Note! If you want to change the size, you can simply use a thicker or thinner yarn with a suitable needle size. Simply doubling the rounds, rows, and stitches, on the other hand, will only result in an uneven outcome.

The arms for the Crochet Snowman are crocheted from fingertips to shoulders in spiral rounds using exclusively double crochet stitches (UK!). Less filling is added to the front part to create nice flat palms.

Snowman Finish

Once you have crocheted all the pieces, we can create a crocheted snowman from them. Before you start sewing the pieces together, be sure to pin them together with pins. This way, you can see where everything should sit and make quick corrections.

Sew Head to Body

Amigurumi - Crochet Snowman - Sven - crochet pattern - free pattern

First, we sew the head and body together with the openings aligned. Use the long thread end from the head and work around the two openings. If you’ve never done this before, the pattern for sewing open pieces together might be helpful.

Attach Arms and Legs

Amigurumi - Crochet Snowman - Sven - pattern - free crochet pattern

Next, you can attach the arms just below the head. Either horizontally folded flat or articulated with thread joints, as described in the pattern for thread joints. The legs are attached horizontally folded to the middle of the underside in a line.

Attach Nose to Head

Next, you can sew the nose to the head of the snowman. Simply use the thread end to sew it around the head’s opening. The top edge of the nose sits directly under the bottom edge of the eyes and exactly in the middle between the eyes.

Paint Cheeks

Now you can paint cute red cheeks on your snowman with fabric paint or acrylic paint.

Hat and Scarf for Crochet Snowman

Amigurumi - Crochet Snowman - Sven - free crochet pattern

Now your snowman is already finished, and that’s important so that you can now make a hat and scarf to match. For this, you simply use the basic patterns, with which you can customize the size.

To crochet the hat for your snowman, use the pattern for a beanie with half double crochet stitches. Here, I crocheted all rounds of the top part in red, started with white for the bottom, and then changed the yarn color in each round. Finally, I followed the pattern for earflaps for each hat and crocheted all-red earflaps using Variant 1. The final round is also in red, and after weaving in the ends, the hat is already finished.

Now, proceed with the scarf following the pattern for a long crocheted scarf with half double crochet stitches. Here, I simply changed the yarn in each row and then neatly tucked away numerous threads. But looking at the pretty red and white striped scarf, the effort was truly worth it.

Afterward, your snowman can easily wear the hat and scarf. The crocheted snowman now looks so adorable that you just want to cuddle him.

Done!
