Pride Rainbow Gnome Crochet

Pattern
Materials and tools:
⁃ Yarn (I used Red Heart Super Saver) - purple, blue, green, yellow,
orange, red, white or beige
⁃ Crochet hook - I used C/2 - 2.75 mm
⁃ Tapestry needle
⁃ Stuffing (I used Premium Polyester Fiber Fill)
⁃ Scissors
⁃ Piece of cardboard (for the bottom of the body to make it flat)
The Pride Rainbow Gnome is approx. 17 inches (43 cm) tall made
with the materials and tools stated above. You can make the Gnome
smaller or bigger by using smaller or bigger hook and/or yarn.
I usually use acrylic yarn for my amigurumis but cotton yarn could
be also used probably with a different size of hook and it might change
the size of the finished gnome.
