For the snowman we only need available materials. I am sure that every needlewoman has a few unnecessary leftover yarn, and we cut the fabric from an old and unnecessary shirt.
For a snowman in a shirt we will need: a piece of cotton fabric 40 by 40 cm, 3 skeins of yarn of different sizes, strong threads, 2 small buttons and 2 large ones, a deodorant cap, 2 candy wrappers.
1. Lay out the fabric and place the largest skein of yarn in the middle. We gather the fabric around and tie it tightly with thread.
2. Next, place a smaller skein at the ends of the fabric.Make sure that the skeins are tied evenly, otherwise our snowman will turn out crooked, and we don’t need this at all.
3. We tie the last smallest skein into the ends of the fabric.
4. Trim the ends of the fabric so that they do not hang too much and can completely fit into the deodorant cap.
5. Sew two buttons to the top head of the snowman - these will be the eyes, and draw a mouth. You can also embroider the mouth with red threads or beads.
6. Sew larger buttons to the bottom and middle balls - after all, our snowman is wearing a shirt.
7. We make hands from candy wrappers. To do this, twist them on one side. We cut small holes in the middle ball and insert the arms.
Here our snowman is ready. You can decorate it with a cute scarf to keep it warm in the cold winter. Or you can make a snow woman. To do this, cut out a triangle from the same fabric, or from any other fabric, and tie it on your head instead of a cap like a scarf.
In general, the idea of creating toys from skeins of yarn appeared a long time ago. What the craftsmen don’t do is Christmas decorations, animals and even people. Experiment, fantasize, decorate your home and your life!
