To make this ornament, you’ll need to crochet the base, embroider the clock hands, and attach snowflakes to represent the numbers. Alternatively, you can embroider dots to represent the numbers.

For the snowflakes that represent the clock numbers, I used small snowflake buttons.  I love craft buttons and use them in many of my crochet designs.

Finishing

3. Using black yarn, embroider the clock hands (embroider over the seam created by Ch 3 at the beginning of the rounds.  The hands will hide the unattractive seam).
4. You can sew snowflake buttons on or glue them on. To glue buttons on: If your buttons have shanks, using a craft cutter, cut the shanks off. Using a hot glue gun, glue the snowflake buttons to the 4^th round to represent clock numbers. Glue the larger snowflake on for the number 12.  Glue the snowman on.
