Choosing the Right Yarn
The author suggests using sport-weight cotton yarn to keep your crochet gnome bright and achieve a clean finish. An excellent choice would be Catania from Schachenmayr, which is available in a vast range of colors.
If you do not find such yarn, you can work with substitutes such as Stylecraft DK, Paintbox Yarns Simply DK, Catona from Scheepjes, or Cotton 8/4 from Hobbii.
Step-by-Step Gnome Construction Details
Prepare to work this pumpkin gnome crochet pattern in three main parts. Firstly, you crochet the body, after which you sew the hands, hair, and nose onto the body.
For the hat create two pumpkins — a large one and a mini one — both worked flat and seamed together. This guarantees that this gnome amigurumi can be completed even by those with basic skills.
Customize Your Gnome for Personal Flair
The pattern is highly customizable. By making curls instead of the beard you can produce an adorable pumpkin she-gnome. You can also choose between fitting one pumpkin on the head of your gnome or making a stack with two.
Make your personalized choices and have loads of fun while building up your crochet fall friend!
