Notes To make the Snowman into a doorstop or bookend, add a weight inside the base (eg cat litter or washed gravel inside a plastic bag, a clean stone or a kitchen weight). Use the cable cast-on unless otherwise specified. When working with the Sirdar Snuggly Snowflake the purl side is the RS; you may find it helpful to label the RS on each piece for making up. For seaming, oversew the fluffy yarn seams and use mattress stitch for the hat and nose seams.
