The pattern comes in ONE file, in German and in English.

Crochet pattern for four snowball ornaments – an instant download PDF, in English and in German in one file.

Four little snowballs with a smiling face, each with a different piece of headwear: a striped pointed cap with a pompon, a brown cowboy hat with a braided cord, a colourful cap made from sock yarn and a black top hat with a yellow band, a red flower and green leaves. All four hang from a loop of golden yarn and look just as good on the Christmas tree as in a display case. The head is the same for all four – the hats make the difference, and each one is explained step by step and shown in photos.
