July 24: gnome pillow

ByCraftingintx

Today’s toy is a crocheted gnome pillow. Design by Sara Sach. Using Caron Simply Soft, Red Heart Super Saver, and a 2.5 mm hook, this pillow is soft and squishy. I put a charm on the hat. The pattern has a beard, but I changed it to braids. the brim of the hat was different in the pattern. I used two strands of white acrylic to sc around the outside and then I made a pom pom with the clover maker. Also, I added arms. Very cute in the mint and pink.

I started my Etsy shop, http://Craftingintxcrafts.etsy.com
