This little crochet snowmen garland are just too cute. I love that each of them has their own color scarf and hat. That brings color to the party and can easily be modified to fit in with your own decor for Christmas.

During the holiday, each room is decorated in a theme. My son's room is Winter and this snowman garland will be a great new addition. I love the color variation on the hats and scarfs. I can not wait to get started.

You will never go wring with the snowman decoration during holidays. My daughter have made several kinds of snowman. But I don't she knows how to make crocheted snowmen. I'd better ask my mom to do it for us.

If you crochet, this is a great project to start this summer and have your garland ready for holiday time. You could even make a few this summer. This project would also be cute to give as a gift.

Incredibly cute! I can see this garland hanging over a fireplace or a big picture window. I like the colors used here, they're not just Christmas red and green so you can leave them up all winter, although a set of red and green hatted snowmen would be cute too! Lots of details make these snowman really adorable.
