Table of Contents
This festive design is perfect whether you already have the patterns or are discovering them for the first time. Both patterns can be viewed on the blog or purchased as premium, printable PDFs, making it easy to create a Valentine-themed gnome.

One Gnome, Endless Seasonal Variations
One of the best features of the Rustic Farmhouse Gnome Crochet Pattern is how easily it can be customized throughout the year. By simply changing the hat colours and adding small, themed accessories, you can swap out your gnome for the season without crocheting a brand-new design every time.
- Use the same base gnome pattern and transform the hat for:
- Valentine’s Day with hearts and pink accents
- Spring and Easter with pastel hats or florals
- Fall with warm neutrals and textured yarns
- Christmas and winter holidays with festive colours
This makes the Rustic Farmhouse Gnome a versatile, reusable crochet pattern that you can enjoy year after year while keeping your decor fresh and seasonal.
Valentine’s Gnome Yarn Details
The yarn used for the Valentine’s version differs slightly from the original patterns. Below are the exact yarns used for the sample shown.

Yarn Used for the Valentine’s Gnome
Hat
Brava Speckle Worsted Weight #4
Shown in Rosebud Speckle and Cherry Speckle, 50g or 109 yards needed per hat
Mini Heart
Shown in Red, 12 yards needed
All other materials, hook sizes, and construction details remain the same as listed in the original Rustic Farmhouse Gnome and Crochet Heart patterns.
How the Patterns Work Together
To make the Valentine’s Gnome:
- Crochet the Rustic Farmhouse Gnome exactly as written
- Choose Valentine-inspired colours for the hat
- Crochet the Heart Pattern
- Follow the small heart size instructions using one strand of yarn and a 4 mm crochet hook to create the mini heart
- Sew the heart to the tip of the gnome’s hat.
This small heart size creates a lightweight embellishment that is perfectly scaled for the gnome hat without altering the original gnome pattern.
