So, if you choose that option, huge, huge THANK YOU for your support, I can keep making my crochet patterns thanks to you 🙂

But, you can also decide to follow the gnome crochet pattern directly on my blog, so let’s get started !

Measurements

• The girl gnome measures approximately 7.5 inches high x 3 inches wide and it sits down on its own on a flat surface. The size of your gnome can differ according to the tightness of your stitches.

• The use of different supplies from that indicated may vary the final rendering. You don’t have to use the same brand of yarn but the weight category has to be the same for a similar result. For the hair, you don’t have to use fuzzy yarn, you can use classic thin acrylic or cotton yarn.

Notes before starting

• Read the gnome crochet pattern completely before you start and don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or feedbacks, I will be happy to answer them ( contact me : here )

• For a result similar to the original girl gnome, it is important to read the crochet pattern at each step so as not to skip instructions given for a specific row. The model requires careful counting of rows and stitches.
• Check the size of the hook before each part.

• Also, don’t hesitate to contact me here if you notice any mistake in the tutorial, thank you

• The numbers placed in parentheses correspond to the number of stitches to have when finishing the row. This allows you to know if it was done correctly. If you have more than the number indicated, it means that you have added stitches. Conversely, if you lack it, you have forgotten it.

• The letters (a,b,c…) at the end of sentences correspond to the pictures.
• If it is indicated “classic finish “, it means: Cut the thread and pass it through the loop to make a knot.

List of supplies

The use of different supplies from that indicated may vary the final rendering. You don’t have to use the same brand of yarn but the weight category has to be the same for a similar result.

• Hooks : 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 3.5 mm (E4) from this crochet kit : here. All my hooks come from the kit I bought when I started and four years after I still use the same hooks. I think that set is great, because it has all you need as a crochet beginner.

• Yarn ( as long as the weight category is the same, you can pick yarn of the brand that you prefer ( the result will be similar in term of proportions ).

Hide the thread in the hat with the needle and then cut what is left.

With the red cotton thread, go back to the chain (R0) where you started and
make (1 sc, 1 inc) x 21 (63) on the FLO of the 42 stitches. It will create a little collar along the edge of the hat.

Feel free to add a cardboard cone inside the hat if you want to keep it straighter.
Voila, you are done with the hat 😊 (a)

Braids

• Cut 6 threads from the white fuzzy yarn ( approx. 10 inches )
• Cut 2 threads from the hot pink cotton yarn ( approx. 10 inches )
• Tie a knot in the middle of these 8 threads
• Put some tape on the knot to fix them on a support ( a table, for example ) (a)
• Divide them into three strands ( white/pink/white, white/white and white/pink/white ). And, braid them together.
• Close the braids by wrapping and making a knot with pink thread (a).
• Cut the threads under the pink knot so they are all the same length

Pass the thread through the loop to tie a knot (a).

Assembly

Once you are done with the different parts, sew them on the body as shown on the pictures.

I always pin the parts first to make sure I sew them at the right place.

For the arms, sew on R10’s stitches, it will look like the end of the arm blends into the body.

You can sew a small stitch under the gloves to make them stay close to the body.

To sew the hat, you can use the same pink cotton yarn that you used to crochet it.

Voilà ! Your little Harriett is ready 😊 Hope you enjoyed this girl gnome crochet pattern !

I wish y’all a Happy Valentine’s day 🥰
