Gnome Snowman Ornament with Cocoa

I fell in love with this pattern when I was searching through the designer's gnome patterns. I saw it as a perfect Christmas ornament and as with the previous ami in order to make it to ornament size I reduced the size by using Aunt Lydia's and Red Heart Size 10 Crochet thread and my Tulip Etimo 1.25mm crochet hook.

Snowman Gnome Ornament with Tree

My Advent box was delivered so now it is time to catch up on my posting. I wanted the kids to have items to enjoy before Christmas as they will have plenty on Christmas day. The ornaments seemed to take longer than I thought they would. I had the first snowman finished early so I thought I was doing well. However, as life often does other things came up and the snowmen took longer to make than I had anticipated.

This is an ami pattern I adapted for my ornament project this year. You can purchase this pattern here.

This pattern is made using sport cotton yarn which I didn't have in my stash and I was also hoping to make it slightly smaller for use as a Christmas tree ornament. I went with a combination of Aunt Lydia's and Red Heart size 10 thread's and my Tulip Etimo 1.25mm hook.

For my own records along with the ornaments and a lovey for the youngest this year the package went out with:
