Christmas Snowman Crochet Inspiration

Last holiday season I made Santa's Blanket and it was a total hit! I'm so glad y'all loved it. Next came Elf's Blanket, and now we are adding Snowman's Blanket to the collection. I LOVE the simple but specific details of this one. The snowman scarf with fringe is the perfect touch!

Use Bulky Yarn to Crochet a Winter Snowman Blanket

The other thing I love about this crochet Snowman Blanket is that it doesn't have to be specifically for Christmas. Feel free to change the scarf and/or fur border color to match your winter decor!

Crochet Snowman Blanket

Assembling the Blanket

Place your button circles evenly spaced along the vertical center of the blanket below the scarf.

Pin the buttons in place.  Using the tail from the last round, sew the center button in place.  Adjust the top or bottom buttons if needed to remain in line with the center button.  Use the tails to sew on the remaining two buttons.

Start with the straight panel to attach the scarf.  Line the top of the panel up along the top row of the scarf rows of the blanket. Pin in place.

Place the angled panel along the top row of the scarf so that it overlaps half of the straight panel.  Using Cranberry yarn and a yarn needle, sew around the edges of the two scarf panels only where they lay on the scarf rows of the blanket.  Leave the bottom of the scarf panels loose.  Add fringe.

Weave in all ends.
