Snowman bottle cover crochet pattern:

Crochet snowman’s leg (make 2):

Round 1: With white yarn, ch 8. Starting in the 2nd ch from the hook, SC in the next 6 chs. In the last ch, work 3 SC. Continue on the opposite side: SC in the next 5 chs, then 2 SC in the last ch. (16 sts) We will be working in a continuous spiral, so do not join with a slip stitch at the end of each round. Simply begin the next round directly into the first stitch. To make the process easier, I suggest placing a stitch marker in the first stitch of each round.
