If you don't have the snow or the energy to build a real snowman, make this little guy. He'll last longer and you won't have to worry about frostbite. He is made entirely of wool, worked with a felting needle. In this kit from Bear Creek Felting, the wool fiber, felting needles, felting cushion, and wire for arms are included, as well as easy-to-follow instructions with photos of every step. The finished snowman is 6-8" tall, depending on how densely you felt it. Bear Creek rates this as their easiest felting project.

With a Bear Creek kit, you are using wool from sheep that have been bred specifically for fiber that is easy to felt. The flock that produces the wool is Bear Creek's own, raised in North Dakota. The kits are assembled right there, as well, for a product that is made entirely in the US.

Please note: While the project is an easy one, the felting needles are very sharp, so this kit is not recommended for unsupervised children.
