Description
I can’t believe how easy and fast making a gnome with this Icelandic Lovey gnome pattern is. It’s a simple sewn or no-sew gnome pattern that really brings out the traditional elements of nisser together with a little modern twist.

This is the pattern for the Icelandic Lovey Gnome from Ruffles and Rain Boots. This makes a simple, no-sew or sewn gnome with optional arms and legs/feet as well as a reversible hat. Four gnomes are shown for inspiration, having been made with this pattern, however, the pattern is flexible and can be used on other gnomes.
This is only the pattern for the Icelandic Lovey Gnome pattern set. If you wish to use a cutting machine to cut the fabric for this DIY gnome pattern set, you can grab the pattern with cut file set here.

My daughter and I started our gnome creations yesterday – first time for both of us. The instructions were so clear and I can’t begin to tell you how helpful the tutorial is. Ours don’t quite look like yours, but not too bad for beginners!

I am going to make the the scarecrow .The size doesn’t take up slot of room so he will be on my mantel with lots of pumpkins. I made the garden gnome and she turned out great. Love the videos as they answer any questions.
