I love Scandi Christmas decor and enjoyed creating my very own Nordic-inspired Gnome. For this design, I fully embraced my love of stranded colourwork and the result is a fun knit and beautiful gnome that will look gorgeous on any shelf. He also features a long, floppy hat complete with tassel and a soft natural mohair beard.
The body, hat, head & nose are all knitted separately and then assembled. Comprehensive video tutorials are included to help you achieve the best result possible (especially if you've never worked with mohair locks before!)
The finished gnome measures 18cm from base to head (hat is additional). Purchase a Kit & make a gnome just like the one pictured!
