Now you can either dec all around and sew arm to body or give it posable limbs by inserting wire through the arms (recommended if you want your snowman to hold a Christmas banner).
Once the limbs are attached, sew head to body.
MATERIALS
BANNER
Red polka dotted ribbon | White sewing thread | Sewing needle
To make the banner, I cut five triangles out of a red polka dotted ribbon and did a quick running stitch across all five pieces. Make sure you leave a long tail on both ends of the banner. Now thread one of the tails on a sewing needle and lightly tack it to one of the hands. Repeat these steps on the other hand to secure banner.
MATERIALS
STAND
A tuna can | Light worsted weight yarn in blue | 2.5 mm crochet hook | Silver ribbon | Yarn needle
The base is made from an empty tuna can turned upside down and covered with a cozy.
Step 1: Open the tuna can and make a tuna sandwich.
Step 2: Wash and dry the can.
Step 3: Reward yourself for a job well done with the sandwich you made (refer to step 1).
Step 4: Take out your yarn and hook and start crocheting a cozy for your stand.

- Assembling the Stand
1. Insert wire through cardboard
2. Tape wire to cardboard
3. Tape cardboard to can
4. Carefully slip cozy over can without disturbing the wires
5. Push wires through both legs
Stand continued…
Since you and I may not be buying the same brand of tuna, can size may vary.
Hence, I will tell you how to customize it according to your requirements. First, work a flat circle, using multiples of eight (and joining the last st of the round to the first st with a slip stitch) till you get the desired circumference. For example:
Round 1: 8 dc in a magic ring.
Round 2: 2 dc in each st around. (16)
Round 3: (Dc 1, 2 dc in the next st) X 8. (24)
Round 4: (Dc 2, 2 dc in the next st) X 8. (32)
Round 5: (Dc 3, 2 dc in the next st) X 8. (40)
…and so on till it covers the flat surface of the can.
Then dc a round in BLO without increasing.
After this, continue working in dc until you get the desired height. If you want the cozy to cover the rim, which is now going to be the base of your stand, work another round of dc in BLO.
Cut out a circle from a piece of cardboard, insert wire though it as shown in the illustration and tape wire to cardboard. Now tape cardboard to the can and carefully slip the crocheted cozy over it, making sure not to disturb the wires. Push the upright wires through snowman’s legs.
Thread a length of silver ribbon through a large eyed, *run it in and out through a dc, skip three dc**. Repeat * to ** till you reach the beginning. Tie a bow.
Now sit back and admire your snowman.
