Steps:

Making the Base (Using Yarn Color 1):

1. Slip Knot and Chain:
   • Start with a slip knot and chain 30.
2. First Row:
   • Single crochet in the second chain from the hook.
   • Chain 1, skip next stitch, single crochet into the next stitch. Repeat from * all the way down.
   • Finish with a single crochet in the last stitch of the row.
   • Chain 1 and turn your work.
   • 
3. Subsequent Rows: (Perform Moss Stitch)
   • Work single crochets into chain-1 spaces (single crochet, chain 1) all the way across.
   • At the end of the row, single crochet into the last stitch, chain 1, and turn.
   • Continue this for a total of 10 rows.
   • 

Changing Colors:

4. Change to Yarn Color 2:
   • On the last single crochet of row 10, begin the single crochet as usual but use the new color to pull through the last loop.
   • Chain 1 and turn your work.
   • Leave the first color attached for now.
5. Rows with Yarn Color 2:
   • Work in the same pattern (single crochet into chain-1 spaces, chain 1) for 4 rows.
   • Ensure you end at the same side as where the yarn color 1 is attached.
6. Return to Yarn Color 1:
   • On the last single crochet of the fourth row, switch back to yarn color 1.
   • Cut yarn color 2 leaving a tail to work in later.
   • Continue working 2 additional rows with yarn color 1.
   • 

Finishing the Body:

7. Cut Yarn:
   • Finish the last single crochet, chain 1, pull through, and cut the yarn leaving a tail.
   • Weave in all ends securely.

Making the Scarf:

8. Scarf Pieces:
   • With Yarn Color 2, make a slip knot and chain 4.
   • Single crochet in the second chain from the hook and in each remaining chain (total 3 single crochets).
   • Chain 1 and turn your work.
   • Continue with rows of 3 single crochets for a total of 11 rows.
   • Leave a long tail to sew it onto the Snowman Body.
   • Make two of these scarf pieces.

Attaching Scarf:

9. Sew the Scarf:
   • Place one scarf piece horizontally at the fold and sew with the darning needle.
   • Place the second piece at an angle below the first to create a crisscross look and sew securely.

Making the Buttons:

10. Buttons:
    • Create a Magic Circle and work 6 single crochets into the circle.
    • Tighten and slip stitch to the first single crochet to join.
    • Leave a tail for sewing and weave in the starting tail.
    • Make two buttons.
11. Sewing Buttons:
    • Position buttons approximately two rows apart and sew them securely onto the snowman body.

Assembling the Snowman:

12. Seam Up the Snowman Body:
    • Fold the body in half with the right side facing out.
    • Use yarn color 1 to sew up the sides with the darning needle.
13. Adding Fringe to the Scarf:
    • Cut multiple strands of yarn color 2 about 6 inches long.
    • Fold each strand in half and attach them through the ends of each scarf piece using a crochet hook.
    • Trim any excess yarn to make the fringe even.

Final Touches:

• Make sure all ends are weaved in properly.
• Turn the work inside out to hide the seams if necessary.
• Adjust and fluff up the fringe for a neat finish.
