😒 Meet Norman – Negative Norman Crochet Pattern
Meet Norman the Negative Norman, the grumpy little counterpart to Positive Pickle! While Pickle is busy spreading encouragement and positivity, Norman takes a rather different view of life. Moody, miserable and wonderfully unimpressed, he's a fun crochet character for anyone who appreciates a slightly more sarcastic sense of humour.
Small, quirky and full of personality, Norman makes a hilarious little desk companion, unusual handmade gift or craft fair item. He's particularly suitable for that friend who rolls their eyes at inspirational quotes and would much rather receive something that reflects how they actually feel!
Whether you're making him as a funny gift, pairing him with Positive Pickle, using up leftover yarn, or simply looking for something quick and different to crochet, Norman is a fun and rewarding little project.
