I recently stumbled upon Mariia Ermolova’s book, “Crochet gnome patterns: 15 easy Amigurumi patterns,” and it’s been a delightful find. The cover alone drew me in, promising a world of crocheted magic.
As I flipped through the pages, I couldn’t help but be drawn to the adorable gnomes waiting to be made. Ermolova’s patterns are easy to follow, perfect for both beginners and those more experienced in amigurumi. And the pictures showing each step make it all so clear.
What’s great about this book is that it’s so versatile. Whether you want to make your own collection of gnomes or give a handmade gift to a friend who loves to crochet, there’s something here for everyone. With 15 patterns to choose from, in sizes ranging from 9 to 11.5 inches, you’ll find a gnome for every occasion.
One thing that stood out to me was her advice on crochet hook size. She suggests using a smaller hook size than what’s written on the yarn label to make sure your stitches are nice and tight. It’s a small detail, but it really makes a difference in the finished product.
