As with my previously designed gnomes (Christmas Gnome, Valentine’s Day Gnome, and St. Patrick’s Day Gnome), this Easter Gnome is made from heart-shaped elements.
The hat, beard, and body of my gnomes are made in the shape of hearts. They are crocheted separately and then sewn together. I added Easter elements to this gnome – bunny ears, Easter egg, and carrot.
