To make this crochet gnome bookmark, I modified the cap of my previously designed heart gnome by making it longer. Also, for the gnome bookmark, you need to use crochet thread #3, otherwise it will be too bulky.
Here are some other gnome designs you may like: crochet Christmas gnome ornament, crochet gingerbread gnome, crochet bee gnome, crochet witch gnome, and crochet Easter gnome.
