Get ready to make your Saint Patrick’s day all the more enjoyable with this adorable Crochet Saint Patrick’s Day Leprechaun Gnome!

He’d love to hang out with your Saint Patrick’s Day decor sitting on a shelf, keeping you company at your desk, or spreading cheer amongst friends.

An intermediate level of crochet experience is recommended for some of the techniques used in the design, but ambitious beginners are always encouraged to try because this is how advanced skills are developed!

From the top of his hat to the tip of his shoe he measures approximately 10 inches (25 cm) tall.

Just for fun the pattern also includes two different-sized clovers. One clover is specific to the design, as seen stitched on the Leprechaun’s hat in the pictures.

The other clover pattern, just a bit smaller, can also be used in the design if desired.

Clover patterns for Saint Patrick’s day are just so fun that offering both seemed like a great idea as they can be used separately or in coordination with the Leprechaun Gnome.

The Crochet Saint Patrick’s Day Leprechaun Gnome is great for gifts, imaginative play, holiday decoration, spreading cheer, and more!
