  1. I cant wait to make these. I am going to use glow in the dark yarn and will tag you when i finish making some. I just made ghosts with Santa hats and thought snowpeople would be fun to make. Yours was my very first pattern choice. Thanks for being awesome. My instagram is By jacki Doré if you see yourself tagged. Thanks again for the pattern.
