I wanted to add a gnome to the Thanksgiving package and I had a turkey pattern but I wanted to start with this designers patterns as I was thinking of purchasing more patterns and wanted to know if I'd complete them or not before buying more holiday themed patterns for Christmas. This is a Garden Gnome Sunflower Pattern available for purchase here. I would like to make this as a fall decoration for myself at some point but the lines were perfect to strip it down and make him into a Pilgrim for my Thanksgiving box.
As I mentioned in my previous post I've been choosing fiber based on creating items of a certain size and using fibers I have in enough quantities on hand to avoid having to buy more fiber. So as with the turkey I wrote about yesterday, I used size 10 crochet thread and my Tulip Etimo size 2 thread hook.
The only major changes needed were color changes and not adding fall details.
