I am so excited to finally be sharing my C2C Snowman Scarf. I really think this scarf is a wonderful stepping stone from basic Corner to Corner crochet into the world of Graph Corner to Corner Crochet.
Below you will find the complete pattern and instructional photos for this crochet scarf. You will also find all the materials, stitches, gauge, and sizing information. If you would like all of this in a nicely formatted printable format, you can purchase the Ad-Free Large Print PDF Pattern.
If you don’t know already the C2C Snowman Scarf is one of the practice patterns for my How to Corner to Corner Crochet Tutorial. If you are knew to the Corner to Corner crochet technique I would highly recommend you check out that tutorial first.
This pattern looks like a Corner to Corner graph but it actually just the result of changing colors at the end of your rows and the fact the C2C crochet is worked on a diagonal that gives this scarf that appearance.
I finished off myC2C Snowman Scarf with a cute little crochet carrot nose and a few buttons. You will notice I only have 4 buttons. (Some how my other packet of buttons got posted in my craft room.) I would recommend using 5 or 6 buttons for the mouth.
If you do not want to use buttons, I have provided simple instructions for making some crocheted circles below.

Size
The final size of my scarf measured 6 inches by 63 inches.
I had my five year old try this scarf on and the width looked good on him as well. You can alway work more or less rows to adjust the length of the scarf.
Changing Colors in the C2C Snowman Scarf
You will be changing colors in the last double crochet stitch of the row. To do this make your double crochet stitch like you normally would, but for the last yarn over, use the new color and drop the old color. This way when you chain up 6 in the next row it will be with the new color.
C2C Snowman Scarf Pattern
Using White, Use the Corner to Corner Crochet Stitch to increase for 9 rows.

R2: Ch1, turn, Skip the first stitch, Slst in the next 2 stitches, Sc in the next 3 Stitches, Hdc in the next 4 Stitches. Dc in the next 2 Stitches, 4Dc in the last stitch and Slst to the bottom of the first Dc made.
To finish your scarf sew on your 1 1/4 inch buttons as eyes, 3/4 buttons in a mouth shape and sew on your nose. I used white yarn to sew everything on so that it would not be noticeable on the backside of the scarf.
When sewing onto the scarf with white I make very small stitches on the front side of the carrot so when the stitches are pulled tight they are nearly invisible.
Don’t forget to sew your pom pom to the top!
Crochet Buttons
If you do not wish to use store bought buttons we can crochet some alternatives for our C2C Snowman Scarf pretty quickly with just a little bit of black or brown yarn.
Eye “Buttons”
Make 2
R1: Work 12Dc into a Magic Circle, Slst to the first Dc and Fasten off.
You can leave a tail to sew onto the scarf or use white yarn to sew onto the scarf.
Mouth “Buttons”
Make 4-6
R1: Work 9 Hdc into a Magic Circle, Slst to the first Hdc. Fasten off.
You can leave a tail to sew onto the scarf or use white yarn to sew onto the scarf.
