With this tutorial you can crochet the little Gnome-Lady “Thrugsi BE”. Depending on whether you want eyes or not - everything can be found here. Of course you can crochet Thrugsi in all your favorite colors - mine are purple and orange. You prefer to crochet with a different wool? No problem, just don’t mix the wool thicknesses, otherwise the proportions won’t be right.

If you know the following stitches, then you certainly have no difficulty crocheting. I have also described all the steps in detail and included many pictures. You can also contact me at any time, I’m happy to help. The tutorial is 13 pages long.

I used the following techniques and stitches:

slst = slipstitch
chst = chainstitch
sc = single crochet
dc = double crochet
magic ring
1 inc = increase (for this pattern, the technique „invisible increase“ is used; in general, you crochet 2 sc into 1 stitch)
1 dec = decrease (for this pattern, the technique „invisible decrease“ is used, in general you crochet 2 sc together)
1..x (…) = repeat everything in the parenthesis as many times as there are before the x

Gnome-Lady “Thrugsi has a height of about 17 cm. Please note that I work rather compact. Depending on the thickness of the wool and your crochet technique, the size may vary.
