Are you a gnome lover like I am? I love gnomes! I currently have 3 gnomes for our Christmas tree (not handmade). Purchased two of the pink gnome ornaments from Walmart on a whim just because I saw them. We have a bigger gnome that sits on top of the tree.
Well, since I love gnomes so much, I always knew I was going to make one! This time, I made a Christmas gnome disguised as an Elf! Aka, my elf gnome!
This was my first time making the double loop stitch. I used that technique for the beard! I like it much better than just crocheting as normal because just look at the texture it gives! It was really weird in the beginning since I wasn't used to it, but then it was super easy once I got the hang of it.
Here's the back of the gnome.
& one last picture of this guy. I love him! I plan to make more gnomes in the future. I showed one of my friends before posting my gnome, and she was amazed, & told me it looks professional!
