St. Patrick’s Day Gnome Cross Stitch Patterns

Gnomes are a fun way to decorate for any holiday, but it seems like they are especially welcome at St. Patrick’s Day. Are gnomes Irish? I don’t know, but they are pretty cute in green.

This one from Favorite Gnome, for example, has a stocking cap covered in shamrocks and long red braids. It uses 21 colors and measures 69 by 111 stitches, which comes out to 12.5 by 20 cm, or 5 by 8 inches on 14 count fabric.

Get some luck of the Irish from your St. Patrick’s Day gnome with this fun design from Neni Design Crafts, which includes a horseshoe and a bag of gold. The design is 80 by 99 stitches, which comes out to 14.5 by 18 cm, or 5.7 by 7.1 inches or 14 count fabric (there are other counts shown in the listing if you want your design to be smaller.

Cross Stitch Foxy adds a beer to their Irish gnome, whose hat has green spots. This one is 72 by 67 stitches and uses 12 colors. On 14 count fabric it comes out to 13 by 12 cm, or 5.2 by 4.8 inches.

Vitalyia Mishchuk’s leprechaun gnome at Cross Stitch Patterns has backstitched shamrocks on his hat and a latte in his hand. It uses 34 colors and comes out to 22.32 by 23.40 cm, or 8.79 x 9.21 inches on 14 count fabric with a stitch count of 123 by 129 stitches. If you like this style she has a whole set of seasonal gnomes that are cheaper to buy as a set.

I really want to call it cheeky even though it’s not that, but we can say thank goodness for a long beard and a well-placed shamrock! The design is 84 by 88 stitches and uses 26 colors. On 14 count fabric that comes out to 6 by 6.29 inches, which is about 15 by 16 cm.
