Melting Snowman Doll – Crochet Pattern

I love snowmen! They are my absolute favorite thing about winter (I get it from my momma), so I just knew I needed to make snowman doll to go in my topsy-turvy doll collection. I started planning this doll back when I made my Queen Bee-Hive Doll. I knew I wanted to make a seasons collection and therefore needed a doll that very much said winter to add to that collection. This pattern has probably been one of my most intense pattern I’ve designed, and I wanted it to be perfect. Sometimes designs just seem to design themselves while others need a lot more work and this pattern is was definitely the latter, but it was completely worth it for the final result! I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I enjoyed creating it!
