US English pattern by Jen Hayes Creations. Includes step-by-step pictures.

The Crochet Queen Bee Gnome looks absolutely royal in her crown. She's very fashionable in her stripes and ruffled skirt, and don't forget the little details with her antennae and a stinger too. She’s an intermediate-level design and includes options for solid or striped legs and braids or no braids.

The Queen Bee Gnome is excellent for gifts, decor, bee and gnome lovers, imaginative play, and more.

The crown also makes a great stand-alone decorative piece for any sort of royal celebration.
