Finally! Hm… I am not the biggest fan of how that beard looks so far, though I have to admit the construction is quite unusual and very well described in the pattern.

I might try and make a second one, we will see…

oergs It would help if you read correctly - I was supposed to use the yarn doubled for the beard… so I did it again, using a light grey and a natural/cream coloured yarn..

Caught up on clues up to December 17 incl.
i.e. Finished the body and stuffed with pebbles and filling fluff.

Finished! I really love how he turned out! I think my favourite bit is the pointy shoes and the ball on the hat.

My least favourite bit is the beard, at least my version of it. I am not too keen on the arms either, I think I would do seperate arms if I knit him again.

In total, I was VERY infected by the gnome bug and want to knit ALL the gnomes now!
