This is the surprise pattern that I have been working on, a Christmas gnome. He could actually be any gnome really, Spring, Autumn etc.. just knit him in a different colour and there you go! I have knitted him in a hand spun chunky wool and he measures 11.5 inches tall. I have knitted him for a pattern and to take up residence on our mantelpiece during Christmas, (that is if Kye doesn't whisk him away, he really loves this gnome:)
I have added this Christmas Gnome pattern to my shop too:)
He is knitted on size 4mm circular and double pointed needles. This pattern is knitted in the round with decreasing and increasing. You could knit in the Magic Loop or use DPNs. I have also knitted with i-cords.
He can either have a needle felted beard or none at all, the choice is yours:)
AND if there is ever anything you don't understand in any of my patterns, you can just email me right away and we will work it out together:)As always, I will be giving a few patterns away.
The winner will be chosen on the 7th of December.
Winner!
Congratulations to:
