Bring a bit of Scandinavian tradition to your Christmas season with this quirky crochet gnome pattern! Designed by ChiWei Ranck, the plushie holds iconic Santa Claus features, including a big hat, lush beard, and red-and-white outfit. Its cute gnome look makes it both a beautiful festive decoration and a holiday-inspired huggable toy for kids.
This finished amigurumi stands at 15-18” when using worsted-weight yarn such as Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice, and a 4 mm hook. You can customize its design by using different yarn textures and colors. Be sure to fluff the gnome’s beard for extra fullness, adding character to your Santa Claus creation.
The pattern involves standard amigurumi techniques like working stitches in rounds, using a magic ring, as well as increasing and decreasing. You will also change different yarn colors and sew parts together. Embrace the joy of the season as you bring this adorable Scandinavian Santa Gnome to life!
