This pattern includes written and detailed photo instructions for crocheting Nollaig the Gnome.

PLEASE NOTE, this pattern is specifically written for plush/velvet/velour/chenille yarn.

PATTERN LANGUAGE: English (US) only

TECHNIQUES: The gnome crochet pattern includes photo tutorials on how to make a magic ring, invisible decreases in single crochet, and closing small rounds.
You will also learn how to crochet the loop stitch.

CONSTRUCTION: The body and head are crocheted in one piece. The arms are crocheted on. The beard, nose and feet are sewn on. The hat is removable.

MATERIALS AND TOOLS:
Super bulky/super chunky velour/velvet/chenille/plush yarn:

• 200g (7oz) / 240m (262yds) in red
• 100g (3.5oz) / 120m (131yds) in white and skin tone of choice I used Honey Bunny Shine from Hobbii in Tomato (40), White (01) and Beige (05)
• 5.5mm / Size I-9 crochet hook
• Fiberfill
• Stitch markers
• Yarn needle (preferably with bent tip)
• Sewing pins
• Scissors

SIZE:
The gnome will be about 46 cm/18” tall, including hat and about 25 cm/10” wide.
If you would like him to be larger or smaller, you can use a different yarn weight (as long as it is chenille yarn) and adjust the hook size accordingly.
