Crochet Scandinavian Christmas gnomes with towering pointed hats, long gray legs, red boots, and two distinct looks in this free pattern. One gnome wears a solid red hat and a shaggy cream beard, while the other has a red-and-white striped hat, thick white braids, and a scalloped red dress. Both figures have rounded beige noses, mitten-shaped hands, and expressive eyes partly hidden beneath their tall hats.

Two Christmas Gnomes With Different Hairstyles
The pattern covers pointed hats, shaped boots with white cuffs, long legs, arms, a tapered body, and separate noses. Striped shorts and a red dress create two outfits from the same figure construction. Work with red, white, gray, and beige yarn, fluffy yarn for the beard, and light yarn for the braids. The legs use an internal wire frame and are attached while the body is in progress. Seven step photos show the footwear, arms, leg attachment, body shape, beard, nose, and shorts.
