Cupcake gnomes

Dear fellow crochet lover,
First of all, thank you so much for wanting to make this Cupcake gnome and I hope
that you will enjoy recreating him as much as I loved designing him for you! I am more
than happy for you to gift or sell any items made from this pattern but would love if you
could provide a link to our Etsy shop “Pampinostore” and credit @Pampino_HM as
the designer.
Much love, time and effort have gone into designing this amigurumi pattern for you
and would appreciate if you do not share, reproduce or sell this pattern either in its
entirety or in parts. I always love seeing your finished creation, so please do use the
hashtag #pampinostore and #Pampino_HM on Instagram! Never hesitate to contact
me through my Etsy shop should you have any questions with regards to the pattern
and I will do all I can to help you as best as I can! Keep creating cuteness with stitches!
With love, Nazeli

Special Stitches
Crab Stitch: The crab stitch is created just like a single crochet, except you work the
stitch to the right of your hook instead of the stitch to the left. Essentially you are
working backwards on your row. You will start the row by chaining one and then insert
the hook into the stitch to the right, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both
loops on the hook. It may take several stitches before you can truly see what the stitch
looks like and how cool it is.

Rnd 9: Sc in all 48 st [48]
Design Note: We will now start to make the outer wall of our cupcake liner. We want
it to be straight so we are going to stop working in a spiral and join at the end of each
row and chain 1 at the beginning of each row. This chain does not count as a stitch
throughout. You DO NOT turn your work at any time.
Design Option: The pattern to follow will create ridges in your cupcake liner. If you do
not want ridges you can replace the Fpdc in the pattern below with sc. Obviously it will
change the look of your piece.
