I finished my first ever YouTube tutorial last night for this little guy. Written pattern in the description of the video. You can stuff the inside you & do a popcorn stitch & chain 1 in place of the chain two on row 9. Do a color change to light pink for the nose.

I made this little Christmas Stress Gnome last night and have already made several more. They are so fun. My own pattern stuffed with a little stress ball that when squeezed makes the nose balloon out.

Finished this last night. This ended up taking me two years to finish because I set it aside two years ago after making the mom and all the bodies and shells for the babies. In that time, I became a grandma, and this is his first Christmas. So I finally picked it back up and finished it.

Finally finished! I couldn't wait until Christmas to give this to my grandson. He loved the donut and the lemon the most. If you don't know, all the food goes inside the caterpillar.

I'm trying this as an option for a group message. I want to see if people I didn't tag can see this post and interact with it.

Here are gratuitous pictures of some crocheted fruit and a hungry caterpillar.

Some crochet fun. Crocheting is really my safe space where I can forget about the world and create fun things.
