Beginner Gnome
This Beginner Crochet Gnome exudes whimsy and charm with its playful, striped body and seamless construction. He’s great for using scrap yarn and is easily customized for any occasion. In the images, you’ll see him worked up in worsted yarn, sport yarn, and size 10 crochet thread.
The seamless construction means only stitching the optional embellishments to the hat and then stitching the hat to the body. All other pieces are seamlessly joined as you go.
Work him up as a Holiday Gnome for Valentine’s Day, 4th of July, Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays, and more. Or make him in school colors to cheer for your favorite school or professional sports teams. And don’t forget, he’s great to give as a special thank you to someone special. The possibilities are endless!
