The adorable Mini Santa Gnome pictured here was made using Schachenmayr Catania yarn yarn (approx. 10 yds red, 5.3 yds black, 3 yds each white and tan, and a few inches of gold) with a crochet hook size 2.55MM.

I had a great time creating this pattern! You’ll get full instructions with photos of my process. The adorable mini Santa Gnome is approximately 5 inches tall with a straight hat, but using a larger gauge yarn and hook will result in a larger (but still totally adorable) Santa Gnome.

This pattern assumes a basic understanding of crochet and amigurumi, working in rounds. Skill level is intermediate and it’s written in English, using US Crochet Terms.

Supplies:
Sport weight yarn
2 - 6mm safety eyes
Crochet hooks size 2.55MM
Yarn needle
Stitch marker
Fiberfill or stuffing of your choice
