2023 Version

Meet Agnes, Dorothy, and Maureen – the three best Snowfolk you’ve ever seen! These three knitters are the dearest of friends and make the perfect knitting circle on chilly days.

We hope you will take these ideas and run with them, personalizing your own snow pals as you see fit.

PATTERN NOTES
The bodies of these Snowfolk are knit from the bottom up in the round on double pointed needles and are stuffed with polyester filling. For Snowfolk that stand well on their own, you might consider placing a sand-filled pouch in the base to weight them down. We chose smooth twigs and trimmed them to use as arms. Each accessory is knit separately and removable. The cowl and beret are both knit in the round, and the capelet is knit flat. A small I-cord is used for the handwarmers.
