There are to many variables to say how long it will take any individual. It takes me about 2 hours,but I have lots of interruptions. :o)
Hi Suzetta,
Don;t know if you are still checking comments here but I wanted to thank you for this pattern. I made it and it was easy and came out perfectly. The pattern was well designed and well stated. I added ear flaps and ties since the weight of the snow man might move the hat off his ears and he's little. Thank you again. Great job!
