Is the Little Fino Pattern Beginner-Friendly?
This crochet gnome pattern is an easy project for those familiar with amigurumi techniques. You will work it in spiral rounds using single crochets and some simple shaping.
The body and head are done in one piece, while the arms and nose are crocheted separately and then joined to the main part.
What Yarn Is Best for the Little Fino Amigurumi?
You can make these crochet ghome amiguurmi using any yarn you want. If you prefer a classic look, go for a regular lightweight yarn and a corresponding crochet hook. Want to play around with unique textures? Try faux fur or mohair yarn to add personalized character to your gnome figurines.
How Tall Is the Finished Gnome Amigurumi?
This gnome amigurumi measures appox. 8 cm in height when done with a fine yarn and a 2.5 mm crochet hook.
Figurines with such dimensions will make great hanging ornaments after adding a small loop at the top. You can also place them easily on your office desk, bedroom shelf, or mantel in the living room.
Do I Need Any Extra Supplies to Complete This Project?
The original design uses plastic safety eyes, but you can crochet them instead. You can even skip the eyes, pretending they are covered by the big hat. To give your figurines proper shape, be sure to use some polyfill for stuffing.
You will also need a round piece of plastic or cardboard as a base for your gnome, allowing you to place it steadily wherever you want.
