Zodiac Sign Gnome Scorpio
Item num.: 36
This design reflects my preferences. I love gnomes and also have a penchant for astrology! So I decided to put both together and design zodiac gnomes. This is the next in this series of zodiac gnomes, with more to come! From 24.10. the sign of the zodiac Scorpio rules. In this motif you will find the Scorpio constellation, the Scorpio sign and in writing the birth planet “Pluto” and the element “water”.
From this pattern you can crochet a cushion or a wall hanging and is sure to make a great birthday gift.
You can crochet this cushion or wall hanging with any type of yarn.
INFORMATION:
This cushion is crocheted in the mosaic technique overlay. You will receive a 14 page PDF tutorial with a short introduction to mosaic crochet, coloured charts/diagrams for the motifs, a small photo tutorial for the stitches used and written instructions for the first rows, for an easy start. Therefore also suitable for ambitious beginners.
Size: Width: 50 cm Height: 50 cm (with the yarn & crochet hook I used)
Yarn consumption: (Pillow) 225g/580m yellow und 175g/440m black (These are approximate figures, because everyone crochets differently, sometimes tighter or looser, etc.!!! Of course you can also crochet with other colours, as you like it! If you want to use a whirl, then I recommend to use a plain whirl as a background and the motif colour can be bright! Just make sure you get a good contrast!
