Dear crochet lover,
First of all, thank you so much for wanting to make this British Big Ben gnome, I hope
that you will enjoy recreating him as much as I loved designing him for you! I am more
than happy for you to gift or sell any items made from this pattern but would love if you
could provide a link to my Etsy shop “Pampinostore” and credit @Pampino_HM on
instagram as the designer. Much love, time and effort have gone into designing this
amigurumi pattern for you and would appreciate if you do not share, reproduce or sell
this pattern either in its entirety or in parts. I always love seeing your finished creation,
so please do use the hashtag #pampinostore and #Pampino_HM on Instagram! Never
hesitate to contact me through my Etsy shop should you have any questions with
regards to the pattern and I will do all I can to help you as best as I can! Keep creating
cuteness with stitches!
With love, Nazeli

PATTERN INSTRUCTIONS: This pattern is written using American terminology and is worked in
continuous rounds unless otherwise stated. If gnome is made using the materials described, he
will be 24cm tall from the top to the base of body.
SKILL LEVEL: Easy
Materials.
1. Basic Yarns –Alize cotton gold, 100g/ 330m, (55% cotton, 45%acrylic) or Yarn Art Jeans- bright
brown, blue, milk white and beige.
2. Yarn for beard/braid- any acrylic 100% white yarn
3. Crochet hook 2.5 mm
4. Fibrefill / toy stuffing
5. Stitch markers, darning needles
6. cartboard for body
7. Pet brush
8. wire for top of hat
ABBREVATIONS: ch = chain | dc = double crochet | dc-inc = double crochet increase | dec =
decrease | hdc = half double crochet | hdc-inc = half double crochet increase | inc = increase |
rnd = round | sc = single crochet | sk = skip | sl = slip stitch | st = stitch
A VERY QUICK GUIDE TO THE CROCHET STITCHES USED IN THIS PATTERN:
1. Chain (ch): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through loop on hook.
2. Double crochet (dc): Yarn over, insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there should be
3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop through both loops left on hook (there should be 2 loops left
on hook), yarn over, pull loop through remaining loop on hook.
Crochet Patterns by PamPino
3. Double crochet increase (dc-inc): Work two double crochets into the same stitch.
4. Decrease (dec): I prefer to use the “invisible” decrease. For this, insert hook into front loop of
first stitch (from the front and under). Repeat into front loop of next stitch. Yarn over, pull loop
through 2 loops on hook, yarn over and pull loop through final 2 loops on hook.
5. Half double crochet (hdc): Yarn over, insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there
should be 3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull loop through all three loops on the hook.
6. Half double crochet increase (hdc-inc): Work two half double crochets into the same stitch.
7. Increase (inc): Work two single crochets into the same stitch.
8. Skip (sk): Skip the next stitch, or the number of stitches specificed in the pattern.
9. Magic ring: Wrap yarn around fingers to form a loop. Insert hook through middle of loop. Pull
working end of yarn through ring and chain the required number of stitches through. Pull the
yarn ends to close the loop.
10. Single crochet (sc): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch (there should be 2 loops on
hook), yarn over, pull loop through both loops on hook.
11. Slip stitch (sl): Insert hook, yarn over, pull loop through stitch and loop on hook.
12. Crab Stitch: The crab stitch is created just like a single crochet, except you work the stitch to
the right of your hook instead of the stitch to the left. Essentially you are working backwards on
your row. You will start the row by chaining one and then insert the hook into the stitch to the
right, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook. It may take several
stitches before you can truly see what the stitch looks like and how cool it is.
Or do this stitch like on my video- it is very easy way, link
