Needle Felt Snowman What you need: White, black, orange and green wool roving, needle felting needle. To Make: Using white make 2 ball shapes one larger then the other for the head and body. Attach the head to the body by stabbing with the needle. Add two black dots on the body for the buttons and two black dots on the head for the eyes. Make a very small sausage shape out of orange fleece for the carrot nose and attach to the face. Using the green fleece fold and needle felt tightly into a long strip. Wrap a small amount of white at intervals and stab with the needle to make the stripes. Wrap the scarf around the snowman’s neck and stab with the needle to secure it. For the top of the hat, make a long egg shape out of black. Next for the base make a flat circle from black then attach the top of the hat to the base. Then attach the hat to the head.
