Friends, today I want to introduce you to a very cute Gnome amigurumi design designed for Halloween. The doll is made with orange yarn, which is associated with Halloween. We see that the body of the toy is made in a light brown color tone. The toy has a white beard and a beige nose. We can see that there is a spider hanging on the tip of the toy’s hat, which has a very long hat.
You can find the details of how this spider is made in the last part of the amigurumi pattern. If you are thinking of making this toy for Christmas, you can also use a star instead of a spider hanging on the tip of the hat.
