This Christmas gnome is one of the most-asked about requests I get because it is a standing sock gnome with dowel legs. In this gnome tutorial, you will learn how to use a small piece of Styrofoam inside the sock to stabilize the dowels.
Psst: I'm also sharing a free pattern for the easy-to-sew booties (link below) but you do NOT need to use them. You can use boot ornaments or any of the weight-bearing gnome shoes in my pattern (link below).

Omgoodness girl! Absolutely 💯 adorable 🥰 I lost my mom and daughter Shih Tzu fur babies last spring within a month of each other. They were 15 and 16 years old. When pulling out Christmas decorations I came across their Christmas sweaters. This will be a perfect idea on using their sweaters in remembrance of them. Tfs and God Bless 😘🥰💜

@deborahfromdcspetersoncity9213 3 года назад

This Gnome is so far the most awesome 👏🏻 one and seeing that he is for Christmas by his clothes you could change it up for year round by having him wear your favorite colors that you like. And just think of the possibilities if you made a female Gnome with braided hair to match the male Gnome for Christmas or year round. WOW!!! 💖💖

@SarahNenniDaher 3 года назад

I really need to stop gluing the clothes down - this is great idea.

@barbaraness4507 3 года назад

I’m definitely going to give this gnome method a try! I recently made a possible sitting gnome where I stitched nearly all of it by hand, never again! He’s extremely cute, but if I choose to sew one in the future I’ll use my machine. I was visiting my mom, and making it for her so I couldn’t use my machine.

@SarahNenniDaher 3 года назад

Oh wow - all by hand?! My fingers and joints would be screaming. I am actually working on another sewing pattern right now - to me, it's just so much faster and easier. Thank you for watching and for being here with me, Barbara.

@barbaraness4507 3 года назад

Sarah Nenni-Daher Thanks for your reply. It was actually my neck and back that caught the worst of me sitting in the same position for too long. I wanted it done before I left my Mom’s yet I also didn’t want to give up any time visiting with her. I sat on the couch the whole time. Anyway it’s done, and hopefully I learned my lesson. Lol

@karlaruiz3930 Год назад

What are the foam tubes you use for the arms and legs. I can,'t find them anywhere.

@SarahNenniDaher Год назад

This one doesn't use anything other than dowels, but the foam tubes used on legs and arms are usually foam hair rollers from the Dollar Tree. They are skinny bits of foam with a thin wire you can easily remove. You don't need them, however, because you can wrap a dowel or wire in fabric or batting to get the same effect. Hope that helps.

@rachaelrutherford2543 3 года назад

What would you use in place of the sweaters?

@SarahNenniDaher 3 года назад

You can make a top or use a decorative sock for the "sweater" and add arms up under the hat (rolled from sock material, with the dollar tree curlers, or any other method).
