The Gnomes of Grimblewood

Discover 8 enchanting knitting gnomes, made by famous designer and gnome enthusiast Sarah Schira.
Deep in the depths of Grimblewood forest, hidden beneath the rustle of pine and spruce trees, lie the gnomes of Grimblewood: an eclectic and gentle group, ready to welcome anyone who wanders into their path. From Gnorri, the skilful gardener who looks after the Ancient Oak, to Gnoddy, who loves a cup of tea with acorns and cockerels, here is a fascinating circle of gnomes to knit with and make friends with
Each gnome has its own distinctive features: choose from hats with ear covers, cord work, tassels or extravagant curled tips; knit clothes with colourful, striped or cabled details; create majestic beards with corkscrew curls or delicate loops, or even add beard pockets!
Suitable for experienced knitters, the book contains all the necessary diagrams for working with colours and cables, as well as Sarah's ‘Everything Table’: the ultimate guide to calculating the yarn weights needed for each individual gnome.
Each gnome is made in two yarn weights fingering (4-ply) and light worsted (DK/8-ply), so you can work your new chosen friend in a small or medium size. Or in both!
Advice is given on how to adapt your gnomes to make them suitable for children, if you wish to create friends for the little ones in your life.
