Notes

Andromeda’s original gnome has become one of her two favorite toys. Since Auntie Helen is a BIG believer in having backup when possible, I’ve knit a second one.

I made a slight modification to the beard. The point on the first one cupped a bit, so I worked a kyok on the point stitch of the knit row, and I think that really helped!
