Halloween Pumpkin Gnomes

I made this for my grandchildren

    About

    I couldn’t resist having a go at these gnomes, and ended up making three, not because I needed three, but because I made so many mistakes in the first one. I was reasonably happy by the time I finished the third one. Now I have to make the spiders, but find it really difficult working in black so may end up aborting that.

    The pumpkins are two different patterns, the small one is a crochet pattern and the knitted one is an Amanda Berry one which should have a face. I will probably add it sometime.

      These are wonderful little characters, Helen. For some reason seeing gnomes, particularly lovely, handcrafted ones, always make me smile!

        Thank you for all your lovely comments Maria. 🥰 I’m hoping to add some spiders, but I’m nearly out of black wool so may only manage one! 😟 💕
