DIY Crochet Kit Gnome Earthwhisper PAK364

Earthwhisper is an adorable gnome, inspired by the folk tales of little mystical creatures that inhabit the deep dense forests, helping Mother Nature throughout the seasons, with their magic and enchantments.

Like all gnomes, he has a long pointy hat that covers his eyes, a big rounded nose and a full bushy beard that brings out the cuteness of these little creatures.

It combines two techniques, knitting and crochet, making this little piece a good combination of these two crafts. The body is made in amigurumi technique and the hat features a large knitted cable at the front. To complete this magical little fellow, there is a fluffy pompom on the top of his pointy hat.
