TATSIANA PADDUBSKAYA’S

CROCHET PATTERN

Gnome
PLYUSHKITOYSPATTERNS, 2019
 Hello!
My name is Tatiana
Paddubskaya and I am very
happy that we met on the
pages of my New Year gnome
crochet pattern. Here you can
find the detailed description
and illustrative pictures.
Using this pattern, you can
imagine different types of
clothes for this gnome: forest
gnome, Brownie, Santa and
so on.

Important:
Crochet pattern does not contain crocheting lessons; you
should have basic amigurumi skills.
All details are crocheting in the spiral, unless the other is
noted.
When using this yarn and hook the size of toy will be 25
cm - 9,84 in.

You can always contact me whether you have some questions.

 Make the holes in the left
circles and insert the eyes
inside them.
Insert the eyes between the
40th and the 41st rows of the
head, make sure they exactly
in the middle between the
arms.  
I have 2 sc between the
eyes. If you will glue the eyes
then simply crochet the head
further.

Ears
Crochet with peach color yarn.
1. 6 sc in MR
Then, do not join the crocheting in circle: make 1 ch up
and turn.
2. 6 SC, leave the yarn for sewing.
 Beard
I use Alize Softy Plus yarn № 55 in white color for the
New Year gnome’s beard, and for the forest gnome’s
beard - Alize Softy № 224 in gray color. The beard
fastening we will do for the forest gnome, but for the New
Year gnome we do everything the same.
Using the marker pins, we will find the fastening line:

Blue markers – 4 rows upper from the green part, on the

level of the arm beginning.
Pink markers - 3 rows upper from the green part and 4
sc closer to the center relative to the back.  
White markers – 2 rows upper from the green part and 4
sc closer to the center relative to the pink.

There are 6 SC between the white markers. If to connect

all markers with one line then we get the first line for
beard fastening.

As we can see on the photo above – the principle of the

line calculation is the same for the New Year gnome.
However, there is red marker – it is for the nose fastening.
 To get the thread of the needed length I wrap the thread
around the simple discount card. This size is universal and
there is no need to find the other suitable item.
We fasten the threads with knots: fold it in half, pull it
through under the SC using the hook, pull the tips into the
loop we got and pull off.  
The second row of the beard I use in order to make it
thicker. Be guided by color markers.
 When the beard is ready we
have to sew the nose, ears
and to glue the eyes (if you
did not insert them earlier)
and to embroider the
eyebrows.

Sew the nose 1 row upper

from the beard. Using the
Alize Softy yarn,we embroider
the eyebrows exactly above
the eyes.
