Easter egg holder gnomes
Dear crochet lover,

First of all, thank you so much for wanting to make my easter gnomes and I hope that
you will enjoy recreating them as much as I loved designing them 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 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

ABBREVATIONS: ch = chain | dc = double crochet | dc-inc = double crochet

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.

2
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.
