Free Crochet Pattern for Two Halloween Gnome Decorations

I just love this season, when the leaves start falling, the mornings begin with a little fog over the grass, and the sun shines through the leafless trees. The spiderwebs are covered in little drops of morning dew, which makes everything look so autumny. Even yesterday evening, we had a little autumn storm. It was so windy, but surprisingly warm.

Finally, it’s here: autumn, spooky season. And what better way to enjoy it than to crochet these two spooky but cute Halloween gnomes with me?

Size:
worked with Cotton DK Yarn approx.: 16 x 20 cm
You can also use Aran weighted yarn with which the size will be bigger, just make sure to adjust the crochet hook as well.

Material: 
Crochet hook 3 mm
Cotton DK Yarn in different colours.

Abbreviations: (I use US Terms)
ST: Stitch
SC: Single Crochet
CH: Chain stitch
DC: Double Crochet
SS: Slip Stitch
you can find the abbreviations for the colours in the material list.

Important information’s for the pattern:
The beginning chain stitch is not counted as a stitch.
Each row has 40 single crochet stitches, and the even rows are return rows.
A basic understanding of tapestry crochet is essential, as it is not explained in. You should know how to carry yarns, as I do not provide explanations on where the yarn is carried or where a new ball for the same colour is started.

For my tapestry crochet projects, I use a combination of techniques, including joining new yarn at the sides, carrying the yarn, and crocheting over unused colours. Because of this, the amount of yarn you need may vary slightly depending on the techniques you use, so you may end up using a little more or less than the amounts listed here.
