I love these patterns, they’re highly effective and attractive while being so easy to do! (Don’t know if this gets published but it’s so easy it is to change the pattern!) I’ve made the snowman, and with the same pattern and a little know how I’ve made a gingerbread man (with gumdrop buttons!), and Santa and an elf!
