I had some leftover white, pink, and grey skeins of yarn from the baby blanket that I last posted, and I liked the color combination so much that I made this amigurumi snowman & scarf with the yarn.
Here is the snowman crochet pattern.

Next, use an embroidery needle and embroidery thread to sew on eyes, nose, and a mouth to your liking.
For the buttons, I used the Rose Shocking pink yarn and crochet hook to make some starbursts. Feel free to experiment with any other embellishments for the buttons, as well as the face: real buttons, beads, yarn, and embroidery can all be fun options.
After adding embellishments, I crocheted a small scarf for the snowman using the following pattern:
