Gneil Gnome

One of the fiber guilds I belong to decided to use gnomes as our holiday theme. I thought a variation on the Sven Scandinavian pattern by Cottage Creations just might be an easy way to do that. I was right! I used sock yarn and smaller needles, as opposed to sport weight yarn. I also sized down the lengths, so he's not as tall as a Sven. He's a fun project and looks gnomish enough to fit the requirements.

Given the little bit of white in his eyes, spooks my cats. I love moving him around the house when I know they'll run into him. It didn't take Hans and Greta long to figure out I was behind it!
