December is just around the corner and as if by magic, the temperature has suddenly dropped! Every year my boys wish for snow to arrive before Christmas but very rarely does it happen… and when it does, it’s often not enough for a snowman. Luckily, I managed whip up this little fellow with my trusted knitting needles :)
