Welcome to the Halloween Crafts & Decor Blog Hop! This month my blog friends and I are sharing crafty Halloween creations and Halloween decor. Last month, I shared a Fall Gnome Scarf for the Fall Crafts & Decor Blog Hop, and I enjoyed making that project so much that I decided to use the same pattern (Fall Gnome Scarf pattern by Heidi Yates/Snappy Tots) to make another gnome scarf but with Halloween colors.
I searched through my stash, and I found some balls of yarn in black (Vanna's Choice Black), orange (Red Heart Super Saver Pumpkin), purple (I Love This Yarn Grape), and green (Red Heart Super Saver Spring Green).
I decided to make half of the scarf black, and I followed the Fall Gnome Scarf pattern. I decided that I wanted the scarf to be about 60 inches, so I crocheted with the black yarn for 30 inches.
After crocheting with the black yarn for about 30 inches, I decided to make stripes with the orange, purple, and green yarns. I separated each colorful stripe with a couple rows of black.
Now, it's time for fringe and embellishments! I've already added the noses and hat brims. I decided to add a crochet candy corn, and I added some buttons to the candy corn. I cut strips of yarn for the gnomes' beard and braids.
One gnome has a beard, and the other has two braids. I decided to do both with the orange, purple, and green yarn.
I added the crochet candy corn and patches (which are included in the original Fall Gnome Pattern instructions). And I added black rosettes. I searched Pinterest and found the pattern for a small rosette on the See Jenn Do blog.
And the scarf is complete! This scarf is about 69 inches long including the fringe and 4 inches wide.
